Money in the Piggy


You’re scared of a politician’s face printed on paper?  

First things first,  my conception of money is as follows: it is a tool. Simply. It is a tool which simplifies the process of exchange in between two parties in a business transaction.We invented it the same way we invented the hammer. You may think I am simplifying too much, but this blog is not about world politics and finance, it is about how you, as an artist, can make it in the art world.  And so, this is the only concept you need to consider.

Once you acknowledge your knew tool, you have to know how to use it properly, which goggles to wear and what are it’s accessories. I am often looked at in a bizarre way when I say I rent a studio. Some people can’t figure out how I can afford it. Well, that’s all part of artsy living’s choices!

This series  will be about how to make the most out of your money, as much or as little as you may have.  This won’t be a cut-a-coupon-save-a-buck section. Those are all over the Internet. I will do a survey of some money savings tips, because it is inevitable, but this won’t be the core of this blog.  Here again, the secret is to think it through, and choose the things you think are relevant to your situation.
