Oil's surge in 2010 paves the way for $4 gasoline - Yahoo! Finance

Oil's surge in 2010 paves the way for $4 gasoline - Yahoo! Finance - I can not stress enough how families need to be careful this year 2011.

The rebound with American Companies was not growth in the States it was from growth oversees. With China expected to grow 5% this year the US will see higher fuel prices. Again our government has failed to reduce the cost of fuel for us.

What to do? Combine trips to the store, plan your purchases to save on travel. This is an easy step if at the beginning of the week you plan out the week. For those heating their homes, look at ways to tighten the home up. Drafts, poor insulation is a major fuel drain. It is like pouring money out the window.

Invest in oil companies stock or a mutual fund that does. 2011 Gold is going to continue up and so are the profits for the oil companies. Jobs will not grow in America like other places. It is to hard for business to grow in the US, so outsourcing will continue.

Plan a meal or two with family and friends that live near by. These activities will keep you from going out to eat, and strengthen your relationships. We have a friend with a Wii and when he brings that over our family loves it. The Wii Fit Plus us a great way to get in shape at home and save on a gym membership.

Challenge friends and family in your own Biggest Loser Competition. There is a 30-day jump start program that is great.

Oil is predicted to hit 5.00 a gallon by 2012. I don't know about you but I don't want to spend my hard earned money on gas or heating my home.

We can do something about it... We need to group together and stop spending, stop running around, spend more time on things that truly matter. By one family at a time taking back their life by being wise and understanding what is going on, it will force prices to come down.

If both spouses work, look at the cost is it worth it? The extra taxes the two vehicles, the child care, eating out, buying lunch, extra clothes for work. Some else raising your children.

Create a plan to eliminate debt and provide a secure financial future for you. Financial Freedom is a Lifestyle
