Not A Butterfly
Money that has slipped through your
fingers in the last twelve months is
gone. You can't recapture it again
with a butterfly net, because someone
else now owns it and enjoys its use.
You can, however, determine to bank a
part of each dollar you will earn during
this year. That is the first step in
building up a growing bank account.
A growing bank account means more
than more money. It means less worry
and greater independence for you.
