Save Now for Later

Having an ample savings plan for you and your family is one of the most important things you can do for your finances. When an emergency happens, yes it’s good to have an emergency fund but sometimes that’s not enough. Having a savings account that is prepared with enough funds to cover 3 months’ worth of expenses is where you should start. I know this task may seem daunting when you put all those numbers together but let me tell you there is a peace of mind that comes with having that amount set aside. Now I know this task can take a lot of time to create, but just start with gathering 1-month worth of expenses. How great does that feel? Close your eyes and imagine in your bank account 1 month’s worth of expenses saved. It feels good right?! What the pandemic has shown us is we need to be prepared now more than ever. A job can be here today and gone tomorrow. Stay diligent on top of your finances and have a plan for the future.
