That's right, if the person's personal finances are managed correctly. Because there are many people at this age who earn a lot but are unable to accumulate savings in real life. While others earn little but are able to save savings. There is a system or behavior that is applied as to why people are able to save money compared to those who are educated or earn a lot and have zero savings.

That means it's really a matter of self-control and self-discipline in order to do proper financial management. The virtues that I have mentioned will contribute a lot to any aspect of the business that we do.

People do not learn about finance and whatever amount they earned are all spend by them without planning so I think if they make a plan from start and do everything according to plan then they will be successful individuals in future which will also put good effects on their next generation.

People when earn huge amount never think about saving because they are not facing troubles but when inflation happens then they think that whenever the situation become favorable they will start accumulating money and will spend less amount for daily uses but all planning are useless then.

If someone understands the value of saving early will save lots of money and his financial status will not be effected by inflation but if he does not learn about handling finance then their is a probability that his time during inflation will be hard.

Without financial accountability to oneself it'll be very hard to avoid poverty, and unless someone is very disciplined and prudent in spending bellow their income, it'll be very difficult to minimize expenditures and have savings to invest for old age. So after gaining all the knowledge about financial accountability and knowing the tips to see that it materializes, without discipline to apply them, it'll all be a waste, so discipline is integral to financial accountability and freedom.

I think the main factor is desire, but at least if it is implemented well it is a solution in managing finances, especially for individuals and if for example we are married. On the other hand, although not in all places, the phenomenon of economic inequality and also access to financial resources can also be an important and very pronounced factor in individual financial difficulties and cannot be denied either.

If you look at the desire to manage finances, almost everyone wants a good way to do it because it has become a very good initial solution for everyone. But in terms of managing finances between unmarried people and married people, it will certainly never be the same and will always give rise to differences even though every decision taken is for the good.

The difference that we can see in the way of managing finances between unmarried and married people is in the way they meet their daily needs which are very common, they must always be there and must not be late. Because married people will prioritize the amount of savings they save for themselves rather than what they consume each day.

As day and night keep occuring, hustling to meet our needs is not negotiable as long as we still have an interest in living. Whether working hard or working smart, the primary and secondary goal is to have something that can aid our survival at the end of the day. No one is interested in how you made your money, just get your basic needs and live your life.

Accountability happens to be an important figure that indicates how well everyone makes use of the resources they have in their possession. Don't be surprised that some people who earn very decent amount still struggle to survive due to the inability to give proper account of how they've spent their money.

Below are the few reasons why personal accountability is important
1. It fosters self discipline in the areas of spending. Accountability sometimes teaches us how to restrain ourselves from our wants.

2. It creates room for investment through wise decision making. In this scenerio, we often consider investment rather than squandering funds.

3. It encourages the regular checking of financial growth, which help us to monitor our earnings and expenses.

4. It builds financial confidence in hustling continuously.

How to practice financial accountability
1. Be truthful to yourself. Certainly, no one knows you better than you know yourself. Your decision to spend right is for your own benefit and not for others.

2. Have an innovative or conservative mindset. By having an innovative mindset, we tend to invest on our own ideas, while by having a conversative mindset, we tend to save our money like some Bitcoin hodlers do.

Thanks for reading through, and what are your opinions regarding personal financial accountability?.

I agree, financial accountability is key. It doesn't matter how much money we make if we can't manage it effectively. For example, I find it helpful to track everything I buy. This way, I can see where my money goes, and sometimes I'm surprised at how much I spend on things I don't really need. However, it's important to strike a balance. Saving too much that we neglect our happiness isn't healthy either.

How to practice financial accountability

Certainly truthfulness is the key factor of success for anybody that want to soar high in life. Most people don't know the importance or how effective truthfulness can be or the role it plays in making a career to be a success. Most entrepreneurs because successful due to how plain and polite they are to there customers and that was he reason behind why dey still stand at the top.

2. Have an innovative or conservative mindset. By having an innovative mindset, we tend to invest on our own ideas, while by having a conversative mindset, we tend to save our money like some Bitcoin hodlers do.
You have just said it all. Mindset plays also an important role In becoming successful In life. We are the product of what we think. Whenever we thinks bad we are often exposed to bad things and we become mute because our imagination makes our illusion to become a reality of negative results. But if we think positively always and work towards it we shall see the result of positive mindset. Could you emagine that some people can never and will never believe that they can make money online? And mediately that mindset is in you, no matter any important offer given to such person he sees it as scam because of mindset but when you believe and accept something even if you don't know them, you stand a chance of succeeding. Because life is not just how people sees it.

So after gaining all the knowledge about financial accountability and knowing the tips to see that it materializes, without discipline to apply them, it'll all be a waste, so discipline is integral to financial accountability and freedom.
knowledge is easy to get and most persons have knowledge of best ways of going about things but when it comes to the ability to applying it, thats where the problem lies.

Even while you're spending, your mind would tell you to be careful about it but its always very difficult to listen to your mind at the moment and if you're not disciplined enough, you will decide not to spend above a particular limit but would not be able to regulate your spending because of the urge that propels one to satisfying the immediate want at that moment.

Being financially accountable and responsible entails you to be very discipline and matured with what is outside your budget and plan for a particular period of time. You've got to train yourself to know when to get the right thing at the right time under the right condition if not you're going to be reckless with your spending.
Everyone knows what to do  Knowledge? Overflowing. Application? We've reached a wall. Financial discipline, not rocket science. You're suggesting being "careful" with spending as a friendly reminder. Not so. It's a financial stability command. You treat discipline as a to-do. Full list. Financial accountability requires persistent, mature decision-making, not just restraint. Indeed, it's difficult. However, guess? The wealthy are distinguished from the poor by that. Rethink your strategy. It doesn't take "training" to know when to spend. It's about reducing spending temptation. Tools, rigorous budgets, spending tracking. Prevent, not react. And remember, this is about your future, not just saving money. Take it seriously, think smart, and start

1. Be truthful to yourself. Certainly, no one knows you better than you know yourself. Your decision to spend right is for your own benefit and not for others.
Probably the best kind of advice because it helps you not just in finances but also your personal life, it helps you become a person that will be aware that they're doing something wrong and that they're not being stupid and stubborn about the wrong things. Know thyself is a thing that we all obviously should learn about but it seems that people forget about it and end up not learning it as they grow up.
I do not think that people actually "do not" know themselves, but they rather deny the fact that they know it. Like for example if I am the type of person who others would say X, and I know that I am X, but I deny it and that makes me not really work on it to get better.

Most traders have this, they are aware of the problems they have, and instead they blame the market or the whales or the big players or whatever. Don't do that, be true to yourself, realize that you are a human, and all humans have shortcomings, mine could be X and yours could be Y but in the end we all have something we do not do right. And in that regard, we can never be perfect but the best we can do is wake up, and try to be better that day then the previous day.

Don't let your expenses outweigh your income. Actually, indirectly we will definitely realize this from the beginning, but there are certain reasons that make them do something that makes their finances worse, both reasonable and unreasonable.
Many people are extravagant for no apparent reason. I have experienced this, when I had money I didn't know what I was doing so unconsciously quickly the money I had ran out without any goods that I could have. I quickly realized that what I was doing was a big mistake which if I didn't fix it quickly then it would bring disaster to me. From there I started to manage my finances, although at first it was still a mess but gradually I was able to do it better.
I was a little luckier, I started reading books about financial literacy, even before I started earning anything, I was very young, but even then I wanted to become rich. Almost every book talked about how important it is to create capital, and be able to manage it competently, and that we should save at least 10% of our earnings.

So when I became a teenager and was able to start earning money, I saved as much as I could, it became a habit for me from an early age, and it's easy to do when you do it consistently. If you want to spend more, then just strive to earn more, it’s not always easy, but there are always opportunities for this.
Well this is one of the things we can do, books are the window to the world in everything including in terms of finance. Many books contain good and correct financial literacy, we can read it there. If we don't really like reading, then now we can see it on YouTube for example, many content creators who present content about financial literacy.
I am personally situational, if I have free time, then I will use it to read, yes even if only a little. I also watch the content, usually I watch it just before bed. There are many lessons that I can get from it, how it can change my view to have better financial management.

One thing about wealth and its sustainability is for one to have an innovative mindset not just acquiring that wealth but learning how to put them into good use and how they can be multiplying over time.

the struggle to earn and make a living does not just end on todays bills but it’s also extend to what will be of the person in future if they stop working today do they have enough cash put into good use that can regenerate over time? This is the kind of thing one should focus on after fulfilling its pressing needs.
"Wealth" means you do not have to ever worry about bills again, even if you only put it on savings account and get something minimal, hell you could just put it in the bank and spend it directly without making a dime and still wouldn't need to worry about it.

Obviously, it is not going to be all that confusing and should be something that will benefit you one way or another, but that doesn't mean that you are not going to end up with anything that would be profitable for you if you stop earning, so most people keep earning. So if you reach the "wealthy" level for yourself, you do not need to figure out a way to keep growing that, it would be lovely and you should try to grow it but not because you need it, because it makes sense.

It tough to stay consistent, and that's totally relatable. Life gets busy, distractions happen, and suddenly, your expense log is as empty as a donut box on a Monday morning. But here's the thing: even a few days of tracking can reveal surprising patterns. Did you know those "small" coffee shop visits add up faster than you think?

Plus, the "I can replace it" mentality, while admirable in its hustle, can be a slippery slope. Unforeseen expenses have a knack for popping up like unwanted guests, and before you know it, your emergency fund is doing the Macarena.

The magic lies in balance, my friend. Tracking helps you understand where your money goes, empowering you to make informed choices. Like, maybe skipping that extra latte frees up cash for that investment you've been eyeing. ☕️ Tracking also helps you celebrate your wins! Seeing your progress towards goals can be a major motivator, like finding the hidden treasure map at the end of the adventure. ️

A person's financial success depends on his financial education or knowledge. Every person should have a personal responsibility. Which can become very important for a better life in the future. Moreover, financial responsibility can give our future generations a better life.
Not everyone's financial success is the same. It depends on individual or family differences. Because if the previous generation passes the financial success to the next generation i.e. if they can manage their money properly and give something good to their children then that child will achieve financial success as the previous generation. Therefore, the money given by the previous generation should not be wasted.

Investing in the world of cryptocurrencies must be done slowly and step by step. DCA method is very important in smart investment which will provide sure protection for our money in future.

That's absolutely right, we are in control of our own life and nobody else. There is no point in cheating ourselves, because it's only going to hurt us in the long run. I have been in that situation myself so many times where my brain tried to play tricks on. Whenever I see the newest generation of graphic cards, or a cheap deal on a new monitor, then my brain tells me we should upgrade my PC system at home. There is no real need for it, my current PC is running fine and will not be replaced. It's just my brain trying to make unnecessary purchases seem important. Which is why financial accountability and responsibility is so important. Only with a clear head can I remain in control of my money and invest it instead of spending it.

Agree with what you said that personal accountability is quite important nowadays. Someone needs financial accountability to be able to control how their expenses and income flow, debt management, investment, financial planning, and various other aspects related to this. Financial accountability makes someone more responsible for their financial condition and it can prevent them from making wrong financial decisions, see how their financial condition is developing, and reduce financial difficulties. Someone who does not have personal financial accountability tends to be more wasteful and they cannot track their expenses and income so this will be quite risky for their financial condition in the future.

In my view, personal financial accountability is not only about surviving but also about thriving. It enables individuals to set and achieve financial goals, whether it be saving for a significant purchase, investing in education, or planning for retirement. It empowers people to take control of their financial well-being and build a foundation for long-term success.  It is not just about managing money. It’s about taking control of one’s financial future and making informed decisions that can lead to financial freedom and security. It’s a lifelong journey that requires continuous learning and adaptation. This practice is practical and fosters self-discipline.
A very profound phrase for me. Indeed, there are many alternatives that can be taken for old age later, I think managing finances inappropriately, especially if the money is not running or not developing (business, business, and the like) it will run out by itself just waiting for its time, so if it is possible for us to have a lot or little money, it is important for us to update our knowledge about money and how to get more, such as business, investment, trading or others, the most important thing is to have a minimum source of income relatively. That will help in everyday life because nowadays it's all about money.

This is very simple, without knowing exactly where you are spending your money, you cannot cut down your budget and get rid of the superfluous expenses and then invest that money in assets which can bring you profits over the long term, over the years I have met a lot of people like that and the worst part is that despite their own claims that they are bankrupt, they refuse to look for any solution other than to try to earn more money, which does not solve their problems because as soon as they earn a little bit more they increase their consumption on the same level.
