VIVE THE SILLY SEASON<br />
We cannot emphasise it enough<br />
that consumers should avoid being<br />
sucked into the commercial Festive<br />
Season hype. Make wise purchasing<br />
decisions in these tough financial<br />
times.<br />
Buying items on credit can be<br />
dangerous because if you can’t<br />
afford to pay the minimum instalment<br />
each month, the deficit will continue<br />
to grow and the consumer will end<br />
up owing more and more.<br />
It is particularly tempting to buy<br />
on credit this time of year, with<br />
consumers being met with festive<br />
advertising campaigns in just about<br />
every direction they turn and a<br />
general spirit of consumerism in the<br />
air.<br />
Instead of splurging on items simply<br />
because they are on sale, be strategic<br />
about purchasing decisions and only<br />
buy items that you really need, can<br />
realistically afford, and have been<br />
saving up for.<br />
With all of that said, we would like<br />
to wish all our clients a joyful Festive<br />
Season. Thank you for allowing us to<br />
assist you in your journey to financial<br />
freedom. We are looking forward to<br />
doing so again in the coming year.
