4 The Wealth Account
I have developed the concept of a wealth account - linkedto the strategic spending system - which has workedsuccessfully for my clients for over 20 years now. The ideaof strategic spending is to divide your hard earned incomeup into small, easily controlled bundles. The first bundletaken out should be savings—a minimum ten per cent ofyour gross earnings. This amount is transferred monthlyinto your Wealth Account, which should be a CashManagement Trust or similar. If you leave savings till last,you will always find there is nothing left over.
The second bundle is your Cash Account. This coversyour daily living expenses for which you normally pay cash;a bit like your pocket money. These are all non-deductibleitems. This account is simply accessed by a 24-hour accesskeycard.
The third bundle is your Operations Account. This isfor those larger expenses which are usually paid monthly,quarterly or yearly by cheque. This account should not belinked to the Cash Account (i.e. you cannot access it withyour Cash Account keycard). We keep the bundles sepa-rate. It is wise to use this account in conjunction with acredit card for those occasions when your monthly expenses
are higher than the budgeted amount. The card acts as asmoother, as next month will be a surplus that can bepaid back into the credit card.
In addition to your savings, which go into your WealthAccount, you should also put in enough funds to cover allyour tax deductible expenses. This will save time and effortfor your accountant when preparing tax returns.
The system is linked by the use of the Transfer Account,into which your pay is deposited. From there, periodic
payments are set up totransfer funds to all theaccounts on the 15th of eachmonth. You should maintaina small float in the CashAccount and OperationsAccount.
The main aim is to accu-mulate as much as possiblein the Wealth Account anduse these funds wisely tocreate wealth.
You can use the exampleWealth Account in Figure 2to link up with your strategic
spending plan. Once you have committed to strategicspending and keeping track of your spending using this system, you are well on the way to achieving your goal.
‘Don’t go around

owes you a living.
The world owes you nothing.
