Saving For A Rainy Day

Looking back at 2011, it seems like you took one step forward and one step back.

Your business did not grow?

No. Why?

The weather?

Seems like every year there are natural disasters ( now than ever).

Let’s review.

Make sure you’ve factored in some type of disaster percentage into your business planning. ( plan for more days of closure due to weather in 2012 than 2011). That’s not negative thinking. It’s prudent.
If you’re running a business that servers the public, expect there will be snow days, maybe a hurricane, maybe a tornado, maybe a flood, let alone some type of unseen economic disaster such as 2007 market crash or political crisis. I would plan for more of all the above. If it doesn’t happen you’re ahead of the game.

Forget what you believe is causing global warming, something is happening now that has never happened before. You have to factor it into your plan.
