A PENNY SAVED IS A PENNY EARNED Written by Jack Lambert
Benjamin Franklin as well as a whole lot of other people have said that. Everyone wants to earn more money! So do I! However, we can also have a lot more money to work with if you use our money wisely! Am I an expert on this? My friends think so and have encouraged me to share some of my ideas. Below are a couple of tips on two of biggest invesments we make - a house and a car! I never pay sticker price on a car, whether it is new or used. ALWAYS offer them less. Offer them less than you are willing to pay. They will 99% of time make you a counter offer! If they don't, you have to decide if you want car badly enough to pay their price. Even if you are willing to pay their price, you can try this; put a serious look on your face, and think about it a while. Then get up and head for door. Chances are at that point, salesman will make you a counter offer! If not, you can leave him your telephone number and once again, chances are, he will call you before day is out. If it is afternoon, possibility of that particular car selling is not very high. If you still feel you can't live without that car next (REMEMBER THE NEXT DAY) go ahead and call him and pay his price. Maybe it was a good deal and you both will be happy.
