Strapped for Cash? Hunt for Missing Money!
Posted by: | CommentsClaim Missing Money
Paying your taxes causes a direct depletion in cash flow. Your business is slow due to the recession leaving only enough money to cover business operating costs via an unsecured business loan. Thus, what do you do about extra personal expenses? How are you going to pay for the kids’ soccer uniforms or your monthly gym membership? You need to scrape up some money. One way to do so is to recall what owed money is floating around that you left unclaimed. Let me explain.
Remember Old Deposits
When you move from one location to another there is usually a financial deposit exchanged for utility, cable, internet and phone set-up charges. And, sometimes, people forget to collect these deposits before moving. For example, what if you had these accounts from college established in your name, paid a deposit, and did not recall collecting. You graduated, moved on and life continues. Well, why not do research, contact the utility companies, and discover what money is sitting there waiting for you with your name on it? Companies do not take the time to search for you. Hence, you need to look for them. Once you find them then the money owed will be issued providing you with extra cash for the month.
Contact Aged Bank Accounts
Check out old bank accounts to see if you left any money behind. Find out if your frequent flyer miles program has cash rewards for you to collect. Discover if you left any unclaimed property behind. All of these things do add up. Every little bit does help.

Rid Future Recession Issues: Teach Kids about Money

How to Eliminate Risk of Debt Amongst Kids
There are a multitude of people in debt, and schools have taken notice. Elementary, middle and high schools are attempting to encompass courses regarding credit score, balancing checkbooks, and credit card debt to prevent the masses from going into another economic crisis. But, just as any school subject taught in the classroom, the lessons will not stick without encouragement from home.
Teach Your School Age Kids About Debt
Teaching your kids how to balance money and the value of a dollar should start at a young age. Start with the simple concept of a piggy bank. Allow your child to use it to store coins. Additionally, every time your child receives birthday money, put it in the piggy bank or once the child is older move the money into a savings account. Teach your kid how much money is in it. Review adding and subtracting the money whenever money is deposited and withdrawn. Then, once your child reaches high school, introduce the concept of credit card and credit card debt.
It is alarming to realize the number of high school seniors and college students targeted by credit card companies to open up accounts. Unfortunately, this is where the problem starts. A student will open up an account, spend too much on the credit card, and be ignorant towards the payment percentage charged if the monthly payment is not made in full clearing the account completely. Thus, you need to review with your kids the risk of using credit cards and what it truly means in the long-run.
Discuss Credit Score
While your kids are in high school talk about what a credit score is and why it is important. Your teenager will not be able to get a car loan in his/her name without good credit. Pointing this out to a new driver in the house seems to create a clear picture to him/her. In addition, explain how a good credit score is needed to attain a house when he/she gets older. Some teenagers are oblivious to the affect a poor credit score has upon their entire lifetime. Hence, try to prevent your child from ever being faced with debt by offering a surplus of knowledge about the subject.
To find out more about how to teach your kids about getting out of debt talk to a professional. Speak to lenders, and if you find yourself in a bind, then ask what options are available to create further cash flow and assist you towards attaining financial recovery in your small business.
