Think about it. Is there any reason to delay implementing your plan to become rich?
One of the nice things about being rich is that you can buy things. But it’s what you’re buying today that will determine your financial situation tomorrow.
Here’s a simple guide to spending that will have a tremendous impact on your financial future: Stop making purchases and start making investments.

Henry Ward Beecher said, “It is not work that kills men, it is worry. Work is healthy; you can hardly put more on a man than he can bear. But worry is rust upon the blade. It is not movement that destroys the machinery, but friction.”
Don’t let yourself rust with worry. Work toward your financial and personal goals instead. Keep moving forward.
Earlier is better when it comes to working on your taxes. Taxpayers are encouraged to get a head start on tax preparation, especially since early filers avoid the last minute rush and get their refunds sooner.
Here are seven easy ways to get a good jump on your taxes long before the April deadline is here:
1. Gather your records in advance. Make sure you have all the records you need, including W-2s and 1099s. Don’t forget to save a copy for your files.
2. Get the right forms. They’re available around the clock on the IRS Web site, www.IRS.gov.
3. Take your time. Don’t forget to leave room for a coffee break when filling out your tax return as rushing can mean making a mistake.
4. Double-check your math and verify all Social Security numbers. These are among the most common errors found on tax returns. Taking care will reduce your chance of hearing from the IRS and speed up your refund.
5. E-filing is easy. E-filing catches math errors and provides confirmation your return has been received and gives you a faster refund.
6. Get the fastest refund. When you e-file file early, you receive your refund faster. When you choose direct deposit, you receive your refund sooner than waiting for a check.
7. Don’t panic. If you have a problem or a question, remember the IRS is there to help. Try the IRS Web site at IRS.gov or call the IRS customer service number at 800-829-1040.
Are you concerned that your efforts to get ready early may be affected by the Alternative Minimum Tax legislation passed by Congress in December? Most individuals will not be impacted, so it is still a good idea to get an early start on your preparations. Even if you are filing one of five forms affected by the recent legislation, the IRS expects to be ready for your return by February 11. You can review a list of the impacted forms and find out the latest news about when the IRS will be ready for your return at www.IRS.gov.
“Another fresh New Year is here…
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!
This bright New Year is given me
To live each day with zest…
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!”
-- William Arthur Ward
