    A good budget won’t tell you how not to spend your money, it should tell you how you can spend your money.

    People hear the word budget and think it means tightening the belt and cutting back but that doesn’t have to be the case. Your income doesn’t change when you go on a budget so all you’re gaining is clarity as to where your money is going.




  • But not all signals were equally effective. Straight-arm signals, pointing left to turn left or extending the right arm to turn right, were almost universally understood. In contrast, fewer than a quarter of drivers correctly interpreted the bent-arm right-turn signal that is still legally recognized in many places. Even the signal used to indicate stopping or slowing, while defined correctly by most drivers, was not the signal many says they would personally use if cycling.

    The problem is that for some reason it’s taught that cyclists should do all their signalling using the same arm. Like if you want to turn left you point left but if you want to turn right you point up? How does that make any sense. That signal could easily be misinterpreted as a wave or a stop.
