Budgeting and Saving Basics
February 18 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
Having a budget is a key component of any financial plan. You can’t have a plan without a clear understanding of what money is coming in, what is going out, and where it is going. Developing a budget can empower you to take control of your finances. We discuss:
- The benefits of a written budget and how to create one.
- How to evaluate your income and read your pay stub.
- How to categorize and reduce your expenses.
- How to avoid common financial mistakes.
- The importance of paying yourself first and how it can improve your financial future.
- The value of employee benefits and how to use them.
- Tips for managing debt.
- How saving for the future is possible—and necessary.
