Can I afford this?

were wise words heard during Oprah Debt Diet show yesterday. And asking that question will keep you living within your means.

Can I afford to play golf every weekend during the summer?
Can I afford to go shopping every week for a new outfit?
Can I afford to go away with the family for a luxury vacation?
Can I afford to go out to eat several nights a week?
Can I afford a new plasma TV?

Do you ask Can I afford this before spending money?

So before making any big purchases or little purchases that add up, ask yourself if you can afford it and pay cash, not credit.

Oprah's debt diet is all on week, catch it if you haven't already.
