Why should I get in the habit of paying myself first?

In light of everything written above, it is important to create the behavior of paying yourself first. This means setting aside money from your normal weekly or monthly expenses that you use only for your savings and investments. Even if it is a small amount, it is important to set this money aside first so that it is not redirected to meet other expenses.
