Holiday Hang Over
How is your holiday hangover? Did you make too merry over the holidays and need to lose some weight? Worse, did you overspend and now have some hefty credit card bills to pay? Now might be the time to figure out what went right and what might have gone wrong in your Christmas shopping and spending pursuits and devise a plan not to repeat the same behaviour this year (and a plan on how to dig out from under any debt issues you may have created from making so merry).
A plan for next year could start with a simple calculation like:
Amount Spent for last Christmas / 11 months = How much you should save monthly
