The 7 Deadly Sins of Personal Finance Wrapup

7 Deadly Sins of Personal FinanceI hope you enjoyed reading this series as much as I enjoyed writing it. While there are certainly more than seven horrible personal finance “things” you can do, the seven I outlined jumped out at me as things you shouldn’t miss if you could avoid it.

The 7 Deadly Sins of Personal Finance

  1. Skipping Emergency Funds
  2. Raiding Retirement
  3. Don’t Budget
  4. Don’t Plan For The Future
  5. Don’t Get Adequate Insurance
  6. Being Penny Wise, Pound Foolish
  7. Don’t Enjoy Life

There were a few others that I thought about but passed on, many of which became fodder for the Devil’s Advocate posts, but if there is one you think really trumps one of the seven above… please tell me in the comments.
