In case you didn't realise - Christmas is on again!

Every year it's not uncommon to hear the phrase 'I couldn't pay my rent, I had to buy the kids presents'.

Now I love Christmas. I love giving gifts and receiving gifts and absolutely everything that goes with Christmas, so please don't think me a Scrooge when I say what I'm about to say...

If you can't afford both rent and Christmas presents then maybe you should have a 'home made' Christmas this year. Seriously, what's more important? A dozen more cheap plastic toys or a roof over the kid's heads?

Christmas comes every year. Every year! I know this year has just flown by, but when we started it, you knew at the end of it there would be a Christmas. If there's any possibility that it's going to be a choice between Christmas and rent then you really should be putting a little money away every week to help out. It doesn't sneak up on you, it's the same day every year, it should not come as a surprise. Be prepared!

As a side note, your car registration/insurance comes every year too. Expect it!
