Meganumber: 7. Give yourself a raise Is money a little tight? Hoping a raise will come through soon? I hate to burst your bubble, but even if the amount is excep- tional, a raise probably won't do much good. By the time a raise is adjust- ed for taxes, you'll be lucky to see half of it in your bank account. And if that's not bad enough, nearly every- one who earns more automatically spends more. Reckless spending can consume a lot of cash, fast. The degree of reckless spending seems to rise in direct proportion to income. It won't be long until you are back in your old financial rut just bare- ly getting by. Sadly, until you get seri- ous about your spending, more money will never be enough. The secret to getting cash inflow to exceed outflow is to reduce the out- flow. That is a solution available to almost everyone. Cutting expenses is not at all difficult once you understand it is like giving yourself a tax-free raise. The challenge is to find realistic yet painless ways to trim spending without creating drudgery or remov- ing the fun from your life. The following defen- dants were sentenced in Tehama County Superior Court, according to the Tehama County District Attorney’s Office: —————— Recent State Prison Commitments • Joseph Patrick Flehar- ty was sentenced to eight years in state prison for dri- ving while having a 0.08 percent or higher Blood Alcohol causing injury- Special allegation-Great Bodily Injury-elderly vic- tim.

Deputies responded to a local business in regards to a battery. Upon arrival deputies were advised that a customer at the business was acting strangely and began screaming at the vic- tim. Camargo then jumped out of his vehicle, ran over LIVE WITH CASH. Except for payments you must send through the mail, living with cash is a good way to curb mindless spending. Surveys indicate cash customers are more mindful of what they're doing and therefore spend a lot less than those paying with plastic. LIMIT YOUR ATM TRIPS TO ONCE A WEEK. Develop an enve- lope system for areas that can get out of control, like entertainment and office lunches. Place in the enve- lope the amount you have allotted. As you go to lunch or a movie, take the money from the corre- sponding envelope. When it's empty, the money is gone, and that means no more spending until the next fill-up. Hint: A $100 traveler's check stashed in your wallet will give you an uncan- ny sense of security and willingness to leave the plastic and checkbook at to the victim and punched him in the face. • Sergio Torres Marro- quin was sentenced to two years in state prison for transportation of marijua- na. An officer conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle dri- ven by Marroquin. Upon contacting Marroquin the officer obtained consent to search the vehicle.

Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate MAKE IT AUTOMATIC. There's a principle of life that says if you don't see it, you won't miss it. Use that prin- ciple to your advantage to build a nest egg. Fill out an "Automatic Deposit Authorization" at your bank, instructing them to automatically move $25 or $50 each week or two from your checking account into savings. You might feel the pinch the first or second time that money disappears from your available balance, but soon you will not notice. STOP SHOPPING. Unless you have a specific need and the money to pay for it, don't wander aim- lessly through the mall or surf the Internet just to see what looks good. Remem- ber that a true need is never discovered while in a store. It is realized during normal, every- day living. Hint: As you identify a need, write it on your "To Buy" list for your next planned purchasing trip.
