Most of Emaswati think they have enough money because of the bonuses they are getting and they tend to spend carelessly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Thwala said people should be wise enough to buy everything they will need in January and save money for January expenses and then they can spend the remaining money on Festive holidays.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWise people will use their \u201813th cheques\u2019 to pay rent, and school fees and buy uniforms in advance before spoiling themselves. I also advise those who would not be in their houses for the Festive holidays to stock up their houses with groceries and other necessities they would need in January before leaving,\u201d said Thwala.<\/p>\n<p>He also added that this is to avoid taking loans the next year for expenses one could have just saved for.
