Margin is one of those important things in life that we often take for granted … and that can lead to trouble.Margin basically means “something extra.” A little extra time or even distance from the car in front of you. It's critical, especially with your finances. I'll talk about financial margin today.Applying Margin to Personal FinancesWhen you think of "margin," you might associate it with the business term "profit margin." This concept is crucial in business, as it determines a company's profit after all expenses. Every step of bringing a product to market involves multiple entities—manufacturers, salespeople, transporters, and retailers—all needing to make a profit. The margin each entity needs can vary widely depending on the product, competition, market size, and sales volume.For example, in business, margin in personal finances means having something left over after meeting all your obligations. This isn't just about money but also about time and energy. After fulfilling job duties, family commitments, household chores, and church obligations, it's essential to have time and energy left to recharge and spend with God.Financial margin means having extra funds for unexpected expenses, like emergencies, medical bills, or helping others when God prompts you. Achieving this requires living on a budget or spending plan, which helps you decide in advance where your money will go.The Four Uses of MoneyThere are only four things you can do with money:Live on it.Give it away.Owe it to someone.Grow it.A budget helps you allocate your money into these four categories in advance, unlike balancing a checkbook, which only shows where your money went.Creating a Budget for Financial MarginUsing a budget is critical to creating financial margin. It allows you to plan your spending and ensure you have money left over at the end of the month. If you have more month left than money, you'll need to make changes—either by increasing your income or reducing your expenses. The goal is to live on less than you make, avoiding debt and saving for the future.The FaithFi app is an excellent tool for setting up your budget. It uses the envelope system and offers three ways to create a budget, making the process simple. By planning out your spending decisions, you can ensure you have financial margin.Benefits of Financial MarginYou may also have more physical and emotional margin when you achieve financial margin. You'll sleep better, feel more relaxed, and be better able to use your spiritual gifts to serve God and help others.Margin is essential in both business and personal finances. By living on a budget and creating financial margin, you'll be prepared for unexpected expenses and able to live a more balanced, fulfilling life. Remember, having margin isn't just about money—it's also about having time and energy to spend with God and your loved ones.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Are schools required to offer a Roth 401k option for their employees, or is it optional? I would like to know if I can put money into a Roth IRA since my employer only offers a traditional 401k.How are the distributions from grandparent-owned 529 plans treated concerning financial aid? Is this changing soon? What annual gift limits can I give my adult children each year without affecting my taxes or theirs? Where should I invest some of my savings to get a higher rate of return? As retired seniors, my wife and I want to take on only a few risks, but we wanted to know if there was a local financial advisor or CPA we could talk to about our options.What should I do with some substantial savings I have set aside as an emergency fund? I'm getting a meager interest rate, less than 1%, on the savings. I wanted advice on whether I should keep them in savings or if there was a way to get a higher rate of return.What should I do with my 401k as I approach retirement age? I will be turning 59 and a half soon and have a portable pension. Would putting it into a backdoor IRA make sense, or should I talk to a financial advisor to help me plan for retirement since I want to retire at age 62?Would paying off the $500 left on my truck payment be okay since I have enough in my emergency fund?

My book is coming out later this year, and if you'd like to be on my list of first readers or beta readers, please let me know! Are you interested in having me speak at your event? Do you want to hear more about group coaching? Key points: Think about career choices in terms of sustainability, what needs to happen to allow you to work in medicine for years to come? You don't have to sacrifice your needs and your health for your patients and your job Ask yourself what YOU need first and foremost. Only then can you serve others. You can't provide compassionate care if you're burned out. Create a margin between what you spend and what you make so you'll have the freedom to walk away if you need to. First ask yourself which values matter the most to you. Then look at how you show up on an average day, does this support your values and how you want your life to be? Pay attention to your health. Your body will let you know when your values and priorities are misaligned. Don't become so entangled in your identity as a PA that you lose sight of your own self-worth. Let go of guilt over making job changes. We're all adults, we're free to make choices and live lives without regret. This job is not your “one shot.” We add exceptional value to the healthcare system both as providers to our patients and colleagues with the doctors we work with.

Most people are running hot. Maybe they don't own their calendar and schedule and are a slave to someone else's expectations of their time, maybe they run thin financially, maybe they make poor health choices most days, or maybe they have no relationship capital built up, so they recieve guilt and shame for addressing other priorities. You can have it all, but you must stop running hot. You must create margin in your life and business.The primary elements of this episode are:I used to run super hot, with very little downtime or replenishment and restoration time. My entire life suffered because I thought running hot was how to become successful. On a car, the RPM gauge shows you where the car is in the danger zone, and that is where there is the presence of unnecessary stress on the machine. Most people are running well in the red. Spend time creating margin in your life so that you can breathe. Running hot is only necessary when you're living someone else's dream - not your own. Success without the stress is my goal, everyday.

Margin is one of those important things in life that we often take for granted, and that can lead to trouble. Margin basically means “something extra.” A little extra time, or even distance from the car in front of you. It's critical, especially with your finances. We'll talk about that on Faith and Finance. You may not always connect the word “margin” with personal finances, but you're probably familiar with its use in the business world where the term is usually “profit margin.”When we buy an item at the store, we don't consider how it got there. But someone had to make it — usually many people working for a company. They all need to be paid wages.Then, salespeople had to get retailers to buy the product or service, and they need to be paid a salary and often a commission on top of that. Transportation people have to get the product to retailers, and they need to be paid. Then retailers have to mark up the product because they have bills to pay and need to make a living, too.So you've got several business entities involved in getting that product to where you can purchase it. And at each step along the way, the manufacturer, trucker, and retailer all need to have sufficient margin (profit) to make it worthwhile for them or the product never gets to you.Now, how much is sufficient? It varies widely depending on the product and how much it costs to bring it to market. Other factors play a role: competition, market size, and volume.The more units you sell, the smaller your margin needs to be. A new automobile has thousands of dollars of margin, but a lot fewer of them are sold than, say, hamburgers at fast food joints. You know, so many billions served? If you sell a billion of something, even with only a few pennies margin, you'll probably do all right.HAVING ENOUGH MARGIN IN YOUR LIFESo how do we apply this lesson to our lives? The same principle holds true when it comes to our margin, and not just for money, but for our time and energy as well. How much do we have left over after all of our obligations are met?You have your job, family commitments, chores around the house, and obligations to your church. You must also prepare for unexpected or irregular expenses, a broken water pipe or car repairs. All of these involve time, money, and effort on your part.Do you have time and energy left over to recharge your batteries and spend time with God? That's another form of margin that we all need.Now, I'm not equating time with God to your other obligations. That's not just something to check off your “to-do” list.Time with God isn't something we have to do, it's something we GET to do, and it's critical for living a balanced life with our time, families, service to the Lord, and, of course, our money.MARGIN IN YOUR FINANCESNow, what does having margin with our personal finances look like? It simply means having extra for the so-called rainy days: family emergencies, medical expenses above your deductible, or helping a visiting missionary or college student if God speaks to your heart.The key to acquiring that margin is to plan your spending in advance and live on a budget to help you decide where your money will go.Did you know there are only four things you can do with money? You can live on it, give it away, owe it to someone, or grow it. Every dollar you've ever made or ever will make goes into one of those four buckets. A budget is just a way of deciding ahead of time what goes where.By the way, this isn't the same as balancing your checkbook, for example. That's just seeing where your money went, not deciding in advance where it should go.If you haven't downloaded the FaithFi app at your app store yet, we encourage you to do so. It uses the envelope system and gives you three different ways to set up your budget— making the process easy. If you're not making spending decisions ahead of time and giving yourself financial margin, your income won't be able to keep up with your outgo.As you set up your spending plan, you may see that you have more month left over when the money runs out. If that happens, you've got to make some changes. Find a way to increase your income or reduce your expenses.The key is learning to live on less than you make, having margin or money left over at the end of the month. Without it, you'll slide into debt and never be able to save for the future.And here's a bonus: when you finally get financial margin, you may find that you also have more physical and emotional margin. You'll sleep better, feel more relaxed and be better able to use your spiritual gifts to serve God and help others.So that's the importance of margin— financial and otherwise.On this program, Rob also answers listener questions: Are CDs or stocks wise investments for a young investor in their 20s? How do you develop the right strategy to pay down your mortgage before retirement? Is it wise to use liquid cash to pay off debt when approaching retirement?

Guide To Implementing Margin Think about what areas in your life have been causing you problems. We need to first identify what areas margin is needed before we can implement it.Realize that margin can be front-loaded. Meaning, it might take a lot of work up front (i.e. saving up for an emergency fund when it comes to financial margin)Once you recognize where margin is needed, start to take small steps towards what needs to be done. There is no need to get overwhelmed. Don't look to other people, make small steps that you can achieve.Enjoy the life of peace that margin brings.

Hey friends, today I am extremely excited about this episode and this topic. "Living With Margin". Too many of us, myself included, have become exhausted, we've become overwhelmed and stressed out to the point where I believe we've stopped short of what God has for us. When we live with no margin in any area of our lives, we set ourselves up for all kinds of trouble. Today, let's talk about it, and then next week let's brainstorm together on how to get the margin back, or maybe start putting things in place to create margin in areas where you have never had margin in. Remember, we are blessed to be a blessing, we are called to be men and women of action, let's free ourselves up by giving our schedules, finances and other areas margin so that we truly can be able to do all that God has for us to do. Let's be people who are not stressed out or maxed out, but people who live a life with margin.

Whether you're a saver or a spender, or you have a little or a lot, we all interact and have a personal relationship with money. Sometimes without even realizing it, that relationship can quickly turn into one that controls us, instead of the other way around. This week, Pastor Brandon shows us how Jesus framed money and possessions for us, so that we might put away our desire for "more" and experience deep satisfaction and fullness in Him.
2 Corinthians 9:6-11 Fifty-nine percent of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, reported a well-known study in 2019. In other words, most people have no financial margin. For some it's brought on by a low-paying job, or a healthcare crisis. But nearly all of us have impulsive habits that eat away at our financial margin. On the other extreme, Jesus warned us about the dangers of accumulating more and more wealth. What if Jesus was Lord of your money? What joy would this bring?
Luke 16:1-13

Then you will be successful in everything you do."Proverbs 15:22 "Plans go wrong for lack of advice; many advisers bring success."Life Church Messages on Margin:Pt. 1 Margin - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/life-church-with-craig-groeschel/id73802266#episodeGuid=https%3A%2F%2Fd.life.church%2Fsermon%2Fmargin%2Fmargin_128k.mp3Pt. 2 Schedule Margin - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/life-church-with-craig-groeschel/id73802266#episodeGuid=https%3A%2F%2Fd.life.church%2Fsermon%2Fmargin%2Fscheduling-margin_128k.mp3Pt. 3 Financial Margin - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/life-church-with-craig-groeschel/id73802266#episodeGuid=https%3A%2F%2Fd.life.church%2Fsermon%2Fmargin%2Ffinancial-margin_128k.mp3Pt. 4 Moral Margin - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/life-church-with-craig-groeschel/id73802266#episodeGuid=https%3A%2F%2Fd.life.church%2Fsermon%2Fmargin%2Fmoral-margin_128k.mp3
Guide To Implementing Margin Think about what areas in your life have been causing you problems. We need to first identify what areas margin is needed before we can implement it.Realize that margin can be front-loaded. Meaning, it might take a lot of work up front (i.e. saving up for an emergency fund when it comes to financial margin)Once you recognize where margin is needed, start to take small steps towards what needs to be done. There is no need to get overwhelmed. Don't look to other people, make small steps that you can achieve.Enjoy the life of peace that margin brings.

Hey friends, today I am extremely excited about this episode and this topic. "Living With Margin". Too many of us, myself included, have become exhausted, we've become overwhelmed and stressed out to the point where I believe we've stopped short of what God has for us. When we live with no margin in any area of our lives, we set ourselves up for all kinds of trouble. Today, let's talk about it, and then next week let's brainstorm together on how to get the margin back, or maybe start putting things in place to create margin in areas where you have never had margin in. Remember, we are blessed to be a blessing, we are called to be men and women of action, let's free ourselves up by giving our schedules, finances and other areas margin so that we truly can be able to do all that God has for us to do. Let's be people who are not stressed out or maxed out, but people who live a life with margin.
