SMART HOME TIPS: Credit, Money, Budget, Debt, Payday Loans
Running a smart home means taking control of what keeps that home running – your money, your credit, your debt and your monthly budget. Perhaps the most important thing on this list is your budget. This is the place where you plot out expected income and anticipated expenses in advance, so nothing sneaks up on you. If you do not have a budget, you have far less control over your money, your credit and your debt load.
Yes, credit is important, and so is money management. Debt can wreak havoc on your smart home and money management if it gets out of control. Some debt can be good, such as your mortgage or car loan, items that allow you to become an owner of something that otherwise would be beyond your reach monetarily.
In this ebook, we will examine points about credit, money, debt, budgeting and even payday loans. These are financial tools you can use to keep your smart home running smartly and above water. The home is your shelter, your castle and the one item you will purchase or rent that allows you to enjoy everything else in life. It is where you put down roots, raise the kids and spend most of your non-working time. If you lose your home because you do not have control over your money, you will be in a very unfavorable life position.
So, let’s get started on this little journey through the financial tools you can use to keep your home running smartly. Do it right and before you know it, that mortgage will be completed and the deed solely in your name. Do it all wrong and you may find you end up starting over with bad credit and no home to enjoy. We will begin with credit, because that is where most people who are purchasing a home begin, with decent credit that allows them to obtain a home mortgage.

CREDIT
Why Credit is Important
Credit is important today because it is so commonly used and available that it has become part of economic life. In the old days, people would strive to be indebted to no one, paying cash and saving up funds for large purchases. Way back in history, some persons were even thrown into debtor’s prison when they could not pay up what they owed to others. While you may not end up in prison today, not being able to repay credit can cause you a large amount of emotional and mental agony. Credit is thrown out to everyone whose attention can be caught, including students who are barely of age to execute a valid contract. The moment you begin adult life, your credit history may also get a start. Utility bill payments can be reported to credit reporting agencies, who then compile a long list of your public financial transactions. When you obtain your first credit card, debit card or store account that credit history begins its long, winding trail.
If you have no credit, you may be in a better place than some to obtain some type of financial account. Even those who have gone bankrupt may have more opportunity to again step into the credit swamp than those who are struggling to pay on a few credit accounts they have already established. The reasons behind all this probably belong in the psychiatrist’s office.
Still, without a good credit history, you may find the way to your dreams of home ownership or of a vehicle purchase are very difficult to manage. With a good or excellent credit record, you have that highway to the credit sky opened wide, with lower interest rates, perks, availability, limit increases and other alleged bonuses.
Problems arise when credit is mismanaged, used for ordinary living expenses, or when it allows you to live beyond your normal means. If you cannot afford something, you turn to credit and thus you begin your future with income you have yet to earn already promised to someone else. You no longer
