$MH Manifesto

I know I haven't been a loyal blogger these past couple of months and for that I sincerely apologize. Through these "tough economic times" I'm sure we're all struggling to find some sense of clarity and direction when it comes to our own personal finances...our stability...our capacity to maintain fabulousness. Which leads me to this, what I call the $MH Manifesto ($MH = $ave Money, Honey). Read it. Live it. Enjoy.




$ave Money Honey ($MH) is a lifestyle guide. All who follow the beliefs, attitudes and suggestions of $MH are members of a class. This class echoes a standard appropriate to the current times, faithful to the mantras set forth by the ancients, and likely to continue to set the pace in the future.
To take care of oneself - that is the shared goal of the $MH class. One's self is a masterpiece comprised of spirit, mind, body, family, friends, lovers, planet, work, finances, and fun. All must operate at high frequencies in order to achieve fabulousness. And fabulousness we all deserve. But we must respect this notion of "taking care".
Hence, this blog. $MH publishes tips on how to holistically maintain fabulousness, without breaking the bank*. The idea that spending money will bring us to higher levels of freedom is not entirely true. Oftentimes we neglect to realize the simple belief that we create our surroundings. We design our lives. We read The Secret. We pray. We also don't keep our heads in the clouds. We read Suze Orman. We know where our money is going and where its coming from and how to make sure we keep it coming in. We're smart and we seek freedom to travel, to learn, to love and to feel sensational.
We've fought hard enough, we've dreamed big enough, and we've repented where necessary. Not only do we deserve our freedom, we also deserve to be free of guilt. We've all been tricked into believing that in order for us to enjoy, someone somewhere must suffer. We've identified a very unhealthy habit of turning the other cheek on our brothers and sisters working in sweat shops, in mines, and in kitchens for unlivable wages. We've long since turned the other cheek on our environment. Being indirectly responsible for the oppression of others does not absolve us of our responsibility to care for one another. We haven't given up the possibility of creating change. "That's just the way things are" is simply not a good enough answer anymore. The $MH class is creative enough to develop and share ways of contributing to healthy habits of consumption and leisure - while still achieving fabulousness!
$MH encourages all to step lightly, think critically, and be fly.

Take Care,
