Weekend Show:
War on Freedom of Speech
The inordinate censorship of the freedom of speech by social media outlets and their platform servers has exploded following the rioting at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th. And the move to impeach Pres. Trump for a 2nd time with just a week before the end of his term shows what the Marxist take-over of a nation, specifically America, looks like. We'll dig into it this week.

2021 New Year Resolutions - A Year of 'Suddenlies'
Whoa! I thought 2020 was a 'year of suddenlies' - but 2021? Yep, 2021 not only will be, but already is 'a Year of Suddenlies!'
Who would have thought we'd see what happened at the Capitol on January 6th? Not me.
So, while It's that time again when most of us make New Year’s Resolutions. But, what form will ()should) they take this year given the chaos in our nation,, the lingering COVID-19 crisis, etc.?
In 'normal' years dieting and getting in shape always top the list, as does money management. But for this coming year, what are we going to (should) do to prepare for what the future may hold?
An important question, given the seriousness of the financial crisis we are in as a country, what should each of us do regarding our personal finances?
Because none of us are omniscient and know what the future holds, no matter what the national economic situation is, each of us needs to be more responsible in protecting our personal financial situation now, and for the future, than we have perhaps done in the past.
So, as a starting place, may I offer two practical things that we can do now? Evaluate our actual expenditures, and our real needs, and then apply the '25% rule,' that author Cynthia Yates talks about in her books on money management. Yates suggests that cutting spending by 25% is not only possible, but doable.
How? Well, for instance:
1) Simply Skip - ie instead of having that latte every morning on the way to work; skip it 1-2 times a week.
2) Mandate a Moratorium on Spending - in other words, buy only what you NEED.
3) Say No to Impulse - 50% of spending for the average person is based on impulse. Wait to purchase something, unless you really need it. Play a new game with your kids rather than buy them a new toy every time you go shopping. (You'll be modeling for them not to live by impulse spending).
4) Use Things Up - be creative with the food you already have in your cabinet and freezer; don't give in to the ease of takeout pizza, etc; hold off on buying new clothes, wear what you have, but make it seem new by mixing your wardrobe up with accessories, etc.
5) Don't Waste - such as gasoline by driving to the store for groceries once a week instead of every day. Eat/freeze leftovers, get creative with them; consciously think of items you throw away in terms of cost, and only buy what you know you will eat.
Taking time to figure out your actual needed expenditures can help you gauge your spending and save for the things you would likely need in the future – it is something we should all do regularly…it is only wise. Those who prosper, in good or bad times, prosper because they follow wisdom, and if we ever needed wisdom, it is now.
May God will bless you in all your resolve. It is a year to prepare financially, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Here's to all we hope 2021 will be,
