Do you always prepare an EXTRA?

I mean anything excess on things, materials, or even money you use on a certain purpose. Sometimes, even after a careful plan or estimate, we will be surprise to know or see that what we have is not enough or for some reason we cannot use it because of flaw or have been wasted. When we fall short, it can mean make or break especially if we are not able to meet our output.

I tend to overspend so I don't bring a lot of cash with me.

@sunrisefan true but I can somehow control myself from using cc. Unlike with cash. When I have cash, there's this urge to spend it all. So I only bring P20. :))

Bringing your credit card will cause you to overspend more whereas if you only bring cash that is intended for things needed then your expenditure will only be up to that amount. This reminds me of our janitor before. His wife was good at managing finances that she would only give him P20 to bet in the cockpit on Sundays. When he loses the P20 in the bet, he goes home or just enjoy looking at the cockfight. When he wins, he buys bread or "lechon" or any food and goes home so he will not lose his winning. That's pure discipline.

That is right. If you have more cash, you will spend more.

Yes, we always keep extras on hand. You never know when they will come in handy.

I do like having a little extra, just in case. I do feel better to have some extra just in case of emergency. Sometimes it's not always possible, but I do what I can.

I believe too that it is necessary because anything can happen the least we expected it.

The extra I know is our food cabinet where we store canned goods, condiments and other kitchen items that looks like a small store.

That's good and I think that it's essential.

Yes, just in case. A plan B in case plan A is not working.

Being prepared and ready all the time is great Ms. T. A back up plan is very useful indeed.
