Any ideas on how to get ahead financially when you are trying to live on a pension?

Sarah Riegelhuth 9 years ago

Hi Taija, I know living on a pension is incredibly tight and can be pretty tough. The same principals of budgeting apply and if you can manage to live within your means, as in not spending more than what is coming in, you'll be headed in the right direction. You may also want to consider looking for any ways by which you could supplement your income, like selling things you no longer need on ebay. Good luck. :)

And don't buy new clothes just wear your tops with holes in them.
