I was just looking through an old pink magazine and found an article, “what’s in your purse?”  The contents of your Louis Vuitton can tell a lot about your finances.

Do you think that statement is true for most people? is it true in your case?

I think it’s true in my case.  When I lived in Japan money was plentiful, my husband and I were both working and had a lot of disposable income.  I lacked nothing money could buy.  My purse was usually immaculate.  My make up bag, filofax, wallet, check book, savings register, brush, change purse, little notebook, pencil case, kleenex and more.  Everything properly contained and cared for.

 Now my purse is a mess!  Amidst all the receipts and crumps lay my wallet, beat up cell phone and other stuff.  My life is much different as a stay at home mom with little discretionary funds.   The first step is awareness so if you’re like me let’s vow to get our purses in order!
