Money Management Tips

Get money tips for your Zodiac sign!

Aries

March 21 - April 19

Common mistakes: Arians ruled by Mars are known for their impulsiveness and hot temper, and that’s exactly what they are like when it comes to shopping. If something catches the eye of impulsive Arians, they won’t rest till they get it! And, it goes without saying that price doesn’t matter.

Useful tips: before you go shopping, make a shopping list and include items you really need. Besides, try not to take extra money with you, otherwise, you may not resist your spending temptation and buy something you don’t need. Try to avoid online shopping, or you run the risk of emptying your bank account.

Taurus

April 20 - May 20

Common mistakes: comfort-loving Taureans will never miss a chance to purchase a cute décor item for their home. They can easily cut their food costs to save some money and buy another bedside lamp! The energy of their ruling planet Venus makes them true home décor maniacs!

Useful tips: hold your horses! Why buy another lamp when you already have one? You should learn to appreciate what you have and channel your desire of buying home décor items into getting physical pleasure – take a relaxing bubble bath or make a cup of hot cocoa and wrap up in a cozy blanket. This will satisfy your love for comfort.

Gemini

May 21 - June 20

Common mistakes: Geminians are always seeking new experiences and knowledge – they tend to spend incredible sums on recreational activities, adventure tours, sci-fi magazine subscriptions, and new books. They rarely think of tomorrow living here and now which sometimes results in a huge hole in their pocket.

Useful tips: you don’t have to pay much to make your life really exciting. If you enjoy reading, consider free online reading to reduce your expenses on books. If you like adventures, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to spend much to get an adrenaline rush – instead of bungee jumping you can go hiking.

Cancer

June 21 - July 22

Common mistakes: Cancerians can drive their family members crazy with their neverending home makeover ideas. Cancer representatives can wander about a home décor store for hours picking new kitchen towels, salad bowls, or an air freshener. They can pour a lot of money down the drain in just a couple of hours not even caring about other family needs.

Useful tips: generally, you tend to make impulsive purchases when you feel depressed – for you, it’s the surest way to cheer yourself up. However, have you ever given it a thought that your bad mood is determined by the chemical imbalance in the brain? Indulge yourself with a cup of delicious cocoa or a chocolate bar to restore it.

Leo

July 23 - August 22

Common mistakes: Leos like to shine like a diamond and be the center of attention wherever they go, and they strongly believe that designer labels can do the trick. Surely, they can but the fashion industry also can empty your bank account. Besides, designer clothes require a truly special occasion, so a theatrical premiere ticket is often another must-buy.

Useful tips: remember that to look fashionable and to look good is not the same thing. Learn a few helpful tips on how to look stylish by combining various items of clothing. Besides, to renew your wardrobe you can also search for a few decorating ideas to pep up your old jeans.

Virgo

August 23 - September 22

Common mistakes: Being the representatives of the sign of purity, Virgo people are healthy eating and fitness maniacs. They spend a lot of money on vitamins, spa activities, gyms, and, of course, organic foods. Besides, buying a new gadget to make their house cleaner, whether it’s a robotic vacuum cleaner or an air humidifier, will surely make them feel euphoric.

Useful tips: maintaining a healthy lifestyle doesn’t necessarily come at a price. Consider working out in a local park or start jogging instead of joining an expensive gym. Besides, you can easily become an urban grower – build a balcony or a backyard vegetable garden and start growing your own food.

Libra

September 23 - October 23

Common mistakes: Venus-ruled Libra people are inborn hopeless romantics. However, when they unleash their romanticism they may end up with indecently expensive Goa romantic packages even not caring about their empty bank accounts.

Useful tips: if you are planning a romantic dinner for the two of you, it doesn’t mean that you need to reserve a table at the most expensive restaurant in the city. A romantic dinner at home can be just as fantastic – you can have a lot of fun planning a menu, choosing drinks, and scented candles.

Scorpio

October 24 - November 22

Common mistakes: Scorpio representatives are people of extremes. They often get caught up in the whirlwind of passions. To get out of this passion trap, they often spend incredible sums on psychologists, analysts, or even fortunetellers.

Useful tips: to keep your emotions under control, search for free online yoga classes for beginners or start doing relaxing breathing exercises. This will not only help you retain your equanimity but also save money for a rainy day or a grand tour across Europe.

Sagittarius

November 23 - December 21

Common mistakes: Sagittarians are true outdoorsmen. With Jupiter being their ruling planet, they can’t stay in one place for too long. Nothing can stop them in their pursuit of adventure. Sagittarians feel good only when their adrenaline is pumping. So, they don’t spare money for something like bungee jumping, rock climbing, or sky diving.

Useful tips: if you think that you can get the best scuba diving experience only by exploring the Great Barrier Reef, you are so much mistaken – there are a lot of great places for adventure seekers in your state - just go on the Internet! Besides, go camping is an awesome alternative to have an adventure on the cheap.

Capricorn

December 22 - January 19

Common mistakes: Public opinion has a very great impact on Capricornians’ behavioral patterns. Their friends’ approval is crucial for them, so at any cost, they will do everything to be no worse than any of their friends blowing their last money on a show. Besides, Capricornians are not good at saving money, so very often they live on credit.

Useful tips: first, you should fully understand that your reputation won’t be damaged if you don’t buy a new gadget – don’t act like a one-day millionaire. Secondly, start keeping track of your expenses. Thirdly, if you can’t afford something, don’t buy it otherwise you may end up with a hole in your wallet. Fourthly, never purchase anything on the spur of the moment – impulsive purchases can eat up your budget.

Aquarius

January 20 - February 19

Common mistakes: Aquarius representatives are true tech addicts. They always keep up-to-date on the latest new tech gadgets. Nothing can give them more pain than knowing that their gadget is obsolete. They can spend hours hitting tech shops and looking for the newest and coolest gadgets. It’s only natural that this gadget love can burden their budget.

Useful tips: it goes without saying that technology makes our life better but you must accept that gadgets become obsolete too fast, so your gadget rush is totally meaningless. Besides, if you are a true gadget buff, why not become a sales advisor at a tech store?

Pisces

February 20 - March 20

Common mistakes: Pisces is the most pensive and dreamy sign of the zodiac. It’s no wonder, Piscarians know lots of ways to mentally escape from reality. In addition, they are not good at money management. Consequently, they pour a lot of money down the drain satisfying their aesthetic needs rather than basic ones.

Useful tips: do you really believe that to satisfy your aesthetic needs on the cheap is mission impossible? Well, have you ever heard about Imeem? Why, it’s a great music-sharing service, free of charge! You should definitely try it! If you are a movie lover, then Netflix is just the thing for you!
