My New Fashion Statement: Be Seen in Green!!


Being seen in green is my new fashion statement. It doesn't pertain to my clothes, as much as it does to my bank account. It's my bank account that will be seen in green from now on. Here is where I will record my journey. I'll share tips with you about how I go from a red bank account to a green bank account. I'll share ideas and topics that I find interesting.
I'm doing this because there are so many other divas (and dudes too!) who are in the same boat I am in. One day we wake up and look around and we are in our 40's, we've worked hard all our lives, and we've spent life thinking we'll have another chance to make a change, or we have all the time in the world. Well today is the only day we have, and I've realized I've got to make today count. I'm faced with no retirement money, no college fund for my 14 year old son and no savings for emergencies. This cannot go on any longer. I've seen security slip away over the last several months. I've seen my 401K slip away as Wall Street has slipped away with million dollar bonuses, leaving a country of hard working people in total disarray in terms of finances and life savings.
It's time for me (all of us) to take our futures into our own hands, and to create a life that is not affected by, or dictated by, the wrong-doing and unethical behavior of greedy corporate big-wigs looking for a fast buck at the expense of the American people. Enough is enough...it's time to be seen in green!
