Are you Spending Savvy?

Are you Spending Savvy?

When applying for a payday loan it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement or relief of having money again, because lets face it, it feels good doesn’t it? You see those dollar signs and the mind drifts off onto all those other things we could buy.

You’ve taken the step of securing some cash to ensure you’re not in the red financially, but now the focus needs to be on discipline. It’s important that the reason for applying for a payday loan is what you actually spend your loan on. If you don’t use the money that your get from a Payday Loan appropriately then you could end up in a huge financial mess.

For example, you’ve received a payday loan in order to make a rent payment on time, but the prospect of spending the money on a luxury has taken over. So despite having the cash you end up not making the rent payment after all. Not only do you still owe rent money, but you now also owe your loan provider money, which is receiving interest as the days go by.

The fact that Payday Loan companies do not ask what you use the money for is part of the convenience that they offer, and this works out great if you want a small amount of cash for a ‘want’ rather than a ‘need’.  But paying the loan back on time needs to be your next focus, because you cant just pay your rent and then forget about your loan. The onus is on you to make sure you use the money wisely or you will have the Payday Loan Company chasing you for repayment as well as the other companies that want their money!
