    Guilty

    By Daphne | December 24, 2007

    Do not feel guilty about not having a lot of presents to give to your family and friends. It is the thought that counts. If you think that you would have to be in debt in order to give presents to people you are absolutely wrong.

    There will always be people who have more or less than you do. Do not worry about what others give because the same people may be paying for those gifts well into next October because they financed them in order to afford them.

    If someone gives you a gift that is more expensive than you spent on their present or they give you a present and you didn’t get them one… just say thank you. Living within your means is not something to look down upon it is something to delight in.
