Anthony Joseph Amaradio recommends following the 10-10-80 Giving and Saving Lifestyle Plan, which emphasizes 10% of your income to your giving, 10% to your savings, and 80% to your expenses.
-- Anthony Joseph Amaradio, an inspirational financial expert and Founder and Chief Strategist of Select Portfolio Management, Inc., outlines five effective strategies to help individuals save money automatically and build long-term financial stability. According to him, the idea that “a penny saved is a penny earned” reflects a deeper truth: real financial gain only happens when money is kept, not just earned. Income that flows in and out without being retained ultimately leaves you with nothing to show for it. In that sense, consistent saving—and eventually investing—is what builds lasting wealth and security. He emphasizes that finding ways to save on everyday expenses doesn’t just strengthen your finances; it also enhances your sense of stability and overall well-being.

1. Build a Budget - Review your needs, plan for your wants, and remove the waste. Knowing where your money goes and how much you really have coming in is the first step. Record your recurring fixed bills, such as utilities and loans. Next, track how much you are spending on groceries and eating out. Don't forget to include that morning stop for coffee. Here's where you will find a big chunk of wasted cash. Even just a few skipped cups of joe can add up to a savings of $25-50 a month.
2. Automate Deductions and Transfers - Out of sight, is out of mind. You can set up an automatic transfer from your checking to a savings account, or you may be able to set up a plan to split up your paycheck deposit through your employer. If the saved coffee money is not in your spending account, you can't use it.
3. Get Cash Back - Many credit cards and websites offer cash back incentives. 3% cash back on gas or groceries can really add up. If you don't take advantage of these programs, it's money left on the table. You may have to read the fine print and sign up, so check the promotions on their website when you log into your account.
4. Interest Rate Reduction or Pay Off Debt - This is money in your pocket right away. Many credit card companies will lower your interest rate by a point or two if you simply ask. One phone call could save you hundreds per year. Of course, if you can afford to pay off your debt, you could save thousands.
5. Lower Fixed Monthly Bills - Cable, Internet, and phone bills can often be reduced. As technology advances and competition increases, companies are bundling services and creating new plans regularly. You should be aware of their latest offerings and your current usage. Maybe you're paying for an extra cable outlet or a premium TV channel you don't watch. Perhaps you could subscribe to a streaming service and eliminate your cable bill. Think of savings!
