032: Balancing Your Finances and Your Geekdom

Originally Aired Sunday, February 25th 2018This is a special Live recorded episode of Comm Talk. In this episode we talk about being responsible with our finances while being in our geekdoms. It all boiled won to 3 things.
Understanding that our Geekdoms – Comics, Movies, Video Games, Sports, Books, Etc. are all LUXURIES, not necessities.
Understanding what is truly a priority. Things like eggs, milk, bread, paying your house bills are priorities. Thinks like Netflix, Cable TV, top end high speed internet are not.
Budget accordingly
