New Year's Day 2013: Creating a Financial Legacy


My aunt called asking if I cooked greens and black-eyed peas for good luck this New Year.  I said ‘No, but I paid all of my January bills in December.’  It just hit me that financial empowerment will be my family contribution.  It is essential to make the same effort to retain a good rating as it is to keep traditions alive.  This 2013 I will see my second promotion this April, earn my PMP certification after taking off 2012 to adjust to my new job, and work on launching my own t-shirt line and pop-up shop business. All of these objectives are financial-related.  I guess that I have broken out of the whole ‘good-job’ mentality and evolved into creating a tangible financial legacy.
