Yes... Beyonce is a genius and every time you get your income tax check, she comes through swinging with her hand out. Our edges were snatched as per usual when Beyonce announced without a caption as per usual, that her and hubby would be setting out for the On The Run Tour 2. I know I know boo... I'm in the same boat as you BUT... there's a few things you need to do before you spend that coin. I'd really hate for you to be this girl:

Here's what you need to do before you spend your hard earned coin on the tickets.

1. Secure The Bag: Before you drop major bucks on these tickets (I've seen the prices... prepare to hold on to your seats folks) make sure you've secured your bag first. Just like Beyonce is focused on that coin, you should be too! Throw some money at your savings account. And before you say you don't have it, or that you need the money to buy the tickets... think about that for just a second. If you can gather up 100-200 dollars in two days to purchase some tickets, you can scrounge up an extra 50 to throw into your savings account. Even an extra 20 will do the trick. All that matters is that you are taking positive steps towards securing your bag first and foremost!
2. Pay Your Bills: This should really be number one, but it goes without saying. Don't you dare put those credit card numbers into your Live Nation or Ticketmaster account before you've paid your bills. Seeing Beyonce is DOPE AF don't get me wrong, but being hungry and homeless are quite the opposite of DOPE. You also don't want to mess around and skip out on a payment (*coughs- like a student loan payment) and negatively affect your credit score.
3. Pay Off The Cost To Be A Boss: Most of us operate on credit cards, and if done correctly is not a bad thing. But when you make purchases you can't pay off in one cycle, the credit card company adds interest to your purchase amount (just like the student loan companies). Wit that being said, if you can't afford VIP tickets, go for the cheaper priced tickets so you can pay off the cost before your billing cycle is up. Trust me, I've been to many Beyonce and Jay Z concerts, no matter where you're sitting you are going to have a good time. I'm all for paying for experience, but you don't want to be paying ten fold what the experience cost. Then that ruins/takes away from the experience itself.

I know I know.. I've put a bit of a damper on the fun and rush of buying your On The Run Tour 2 tickets. I'm just looking out for ya'll. Whether you listen to my advice or not always proceed with caution when making large purchases, especially purchases that aren't in your foreseeable budget.
See you on the next one!
