Working from home is a fantastic way for you to save money while you are making it. Think of all the things you have to spend money on just to go to work outside of your home. Transportation is probably one of the biggest things you are going to have to spend money on in order to get to and from work. Whether you spend money on public transportation, your own car, or even pitching in on a car pool, there is a lot of money to be saved by not having to go out of your home to work.
Just think of how much money you can save by not having to purchase fuel, car insurance, parking, if you work in the city, and have to pay for parking, wear and tear on your vehicle. All of this can end up making your working life a living hell when something goes wrong and you can’t afford even one aspect of your transportation needs. Now, think about how much money you spend on things like lunch. Maybe you get that latte first thing in the morning on your way to work, and then have a nice lunch and something for the ride home, too.
Look at how much money you are saving by being able to stay home. Your transportation requirements are you walking down the hall. No money being spent there unless you need really expensive slippers. Your latte can be easily made in your own kitchen now and that saves you a lot of money every month as well. Lunch is the same way since you can purchase food cheaper than you can go to a restaurant these days. Of course, you can still go out for lunch as you won’t be spending as much money in transportation and other costs, so you really aren’t losing anything by going out to lunch.
It is thoughts like this that people need to have more often so that they can see there is another option besides the corporate drone that spends almost as much money every day as they make. That is the goal of the companies that everyone works for, after all. They give you enough money to pay your bills but you won’t ever get ahead that way. You have to take these things in your own hands and run with it in order to get ahead in this world.
While you may enjoy working for someone else because it limits your responsibility, the only thing it is really limiting is your ability to live your own life. If you don’t mind being a slave to a company whose owners are vacationing 49 out of 52 weeks a year, then that is your business, but to all those people out there that want something better in their life, then you need to get off your butt and start working towards getting your own business up and running. The faster you get it running the faster you can start making profit and saving money on everything else.
