Cousins…You Don’t Have a Money Problem. You Have a_____ Problem. 💸🧠
George Horace Lorimer in his book Letters From A Self-Made Merchant To His Son said:
👉 “Adjust your spending to match your earning capacity.”
It sounds simple.
But it’s the line that has saved generations from silent financial suffering.
Most people don’t go broke because they don’t earn.
They go broke because their appetite grows faster than their income.
Here’s the twist:
It’s not about being cheap, it’s about being conscious.
As a CPA, I can tell you I know what I am saying.
Too many chase appearances, not assets.
They buy to impress, not to invest.
They spend from emotion, not intention.
And slowly…
Freedom slips through their fingers.
🛑 That new gadget? Not urgent.
🛑 That trip? Not wise if you’re borrowing to fund it.
🛑 That habit of spending before planning? A hidden financial leak.
You don’t fix this by earning more.
You fix it by thinking better.
💡 Want to win with money?
Let your spending reflect where you want to go, not where you are.
Nonprofit Taxes are due May 15th.
Please make sure you file to stay compliant.
