Shedding and Shredding

BEFORE I EVEN THINK about making (or reviewing) New Year's Resolutions, I'm ticking off a list of things I plan to shed in 2009. If I'm ruthless, I will eliminate more than $500 from my monthly outgoings. That's less than the pay cut I've taken this year but it's a start towards focusing on things that pay off in terms of time and money. With the reality of job cutbacks now looming as a result of the Minister for Finance wielding an axe across the education sector, it's prudent for me to start cutting back on things that do not fit into our kitchen along with the blue dots at left. Thankfully, there's good value in many of the services, subscriptions and sotware updates that I've used consistently during the past year. Now, it's off to terminate the first hundred euro.
