5 Toxic Money Habits to Break ASAP

When it comes to your money, certain habits and behaviors can negatively impact your bottom line. In financial terms, your "bottom line" essentially means your profit. Whether it's what's left after you've allocated your income to expenses and spending in the month (via your budget). Or, if you're calculating your net worth by deducting your total debts from your total assets. Either way, we want our "bottom line" number to be as high as possible. The more profit, the more we can grow our wealth. Unfortunately, certain toxic money habits can reduce our bottom line number. It can happen in small, sneaky ways, or it can happen in big, drastic ways. Regardless, it's important to know what those bad habits are, especially since they can have the opposite effect of what we want.
