This Week's Assignment, etc.
Buying Only Big, Big Bargains teaches us Dave's personal techniques on how to negotiate and get the very best deals when buying something.

This was a fun lesson, in part because of the great stories, but mostly because it helped open our eyes to the advantages of being able and WILLING to negotiate, especially on big-ticket items.

This Week's Homework:

  1. Read Chapter 13 in Financial Peace Revisited
  2. Complete Sheets 5 (monthly cash flow plan) and 7 (allocated spending plan) for April.
  3. Invite a friend or family member to next week's lesson on "Dumping Debt"

Don't forget the power of cash when negotiating a deal.

Worksheets from the FPU Workbook for this lesson
FPU_Sheet_5_Monthly_Cash_Flow_Plan.xls This is the Cash Flow worksheet ("Sheet 5" in the workbook) alone. It is included in FPU Worksheets.xls, as well.
FPU_Sheet_7_Allocated_Spending_Plan.xls This is the Allocated Spending Plan worksheet ("Sheet 7" in the workbook) alone. If you get paid more than once per month, you NEED to fill out this sheet using the amounts in Sheet 5!
