How to Get the Most Out of Your Strategic Shopping Savings
by Jean Chatzky
Two hundred dollars. That, on average, is how much you’re saving following the Coupon Mom’s money-saving methodology. But what are you doing with that money?
I ask because If you’re not consciously using it to accomplish one goal or another, then this year $2400 is going to fly through your fingertips without you knowing what happened to it. And that would be a shame. Because if you, say, decided to invest that money in some sort of tax-deferred account where you earned an 8 percent return, then in 10 years that money would have more than doubled.
And it gets better: If you continued to deposit your $200 in savings every single month for 10 years into that account earning 8%, at the end of the decade you’d have $36,600. And in two decades, you’d have $117,800. You could put a child through college. Build the kitchen you’ve always wanted. Or maybe retire your mortgage altogether. That’s the power of saving money month in and month out.
So how should you be using the money you’re saving with the Coupon Mom? You should be doing these three things — in precisely this order.
