In reality, inflation ” is still with us, but its pace J r u has slowed somewhat and ,s incomes have increased for *• most Americans. However, J?!i| Mrs. Gene Curtis And About Homemakers BY JOYCE A. WATTS Ass’t Home Ec. Ext. Agent few consumers live on or even , near “Easy Street, USA.” , According to a Detroit , bank, the typical American j wage earner is living “hand- ( to-mouth" and will be at least , SSOO in the hole by the end of the year because he refuses to , change his life style. He is trying to maintain a moderate standard of living that costs an average of $14,333 a year on an average annual income of $13,84*7 (News and Observ er, Sept. 7, 1976, p. 12). Such action can only lead to financial disaster. Periodic check-ups on your consumers behavior and financial situa tion is necessary to avoid severe money problems. Now is the time to face the reality of your family living situation and plan and act to achieve any improvements desired. To to this you will need to identify: (a) what has been in 1976, (b) what is desired for 1977, and (c) what can be in 1977 with your means for achieving. Then act accor dingly. FAMILY ACTION FOR ECONOMIC SUCCESS 1. Family works as a team in its life, planning how to achieve the type life desired, and working together as a team for successful achieve ment. 2. Take an inventory of 1976. Make two lists that identify for the family group and for the individual mem bers; (a) Successful achieve ments-include all types of satisfactory achievements (values, goods and services, such as; group memberships, vacations, furniture, house repairs, etc.) (b) Desires and attempts that were not satis factory. Study inventory lists and discuss what was responsible for the success or lack of success during 1976. Evaluate the effect of each item in the list on the family’s economic well-being. 3. Do a Net Worth Statement for 1976. (a) Make a list of all your assets (what you own-house, land, money, equipment, fumiturev» cash r value life insurance, etc.) and value each at the price it would bring if placed for sale in today’s market. (b) Make a list of what you owe and the amount owed, (c) Determine the difference be tween the dollar value of what you own and what you owe. This is your family’s net worth. Are you satisfied with your Net Worth? If not, determine how much you would like to increase it during 1977. 4. List hopes or achieve ments desired for 1977 (and future years if possible.) 5. List all means (or resources) available for family use during 1977-be sure to include: expected income; opportunities for earning in come; human resources of family members such as time, knowledge, and talents; ma terial resources such as money, cash value of insur ance, possessions; and public resources such as schools, libraries, health department. Extension Service. 6. At this point, you have a realistic picture of what was in 1976, what is desired for 1977 and maybe future years, and your available tools (means or resources) for attaining what is desired. Now work out a Plan of Action that tells exactly: (a) what is to be achieved and when, (b) which resources and how much of each can best be used and when, (c) who will participate and the course of action each will take, (d) what records are to be kept and how, (e) how the success of each achievement will be measured. This is your guide for achieving the type of life desired in 1977. Be sure each person understands and does his part. At least monthly do a quick check on progress and make needed changes. Twice a year do a more thorough check on progress. (Prepared by Thelma Hin son, Spec, in Family Resource Management) • —. • ■ ■.i Life insurance for the life of your mortgage.
