You look familiar, have we met? We used to be friends...remember? You used to love dropping coins in me as a kid. Saving was fun then- what happened? I know it's harder now. That big screen TV, the latest cell phone- how did you survive without them? I've seen your photos- your clothes are stylin' . I appreciate the finer things too, just check out my suit. But there is a fine line between enjoying the good things and falling into debt. There is a smart way to get what you want - SAVE for it!  Remember to Feed the Pig. Here's why: My friends at the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants asked me to get all of of my friends to think about saving. Saving money is the key to your financial future.
