There are many things in which size matters -- buying a sweater for your wife, shoes for your children or the amount of food you cook for dinner. But with money, size doesn't matter.

You don't have to have a large amount of money in order to have financial freedom. You may think that if you had a higher income or lottery winnings you would have it made. But that is just a myth that rarely is proven false.

Large incomes often come with large problems. Just like your small income is causing you a large problem. You don't have enough money to cover what you are spending. You spend more than you have. This is true for people who make $25,000 a year and for people who make $225,000 a year. No matter the size of your income, you can have financial problems.

You see, it has nothing to do with your income. What is really at fault is your spending. You will have troubles even with $500,000 in the bank, because you probably will be the same when it comes to financial management. What you have to change is the spending.

If you want to become wealthy, you have to learn how money really works. You have to learn to spend less, eliminate your debt and start investing for the future. If you don't deal with your out-of-control spending habits right now, you won't be able to control yourself later. If you hit that lottery, chances are that you would just blow it.

You can budget and you can make statements about how you will get out of debt, but nothing will change until you really change yourself. You have to look inside of yourself before you even look at the numbers. Identify your fears -- loss, risk and not having what you need. Know why you spend money the way you do. Then take steps to stop your habits.

Start with setting priorities and goals. Write them down and know what you are going to do to accomplish them. Look at your entire financial situation by forming a budget. Work on your debt by forming a debt repayment plan. Simply paying off your debt could give you back hundreds of dollars each month. Look at your investments for the future. Consider what type of education you want your children to have. How early do you want to retire?

You know that your chances of winning the lottery are slim. So don't wait for that impossible dream to start living a financially free lifestyle. You can change your finances. It will take a little time, but no more than you would spend trying to win the lottery. Look at what your goals are. You can send your children to college. You can retire at a reasonable age. You simply have to decide where your priorities are. You ma
