5 common money mistakes people make!

The worst money mistakes people make can have a significant impact on their financial well-being for years to come.


Not having a budget.

A budget is simply a plan for how you're going to spend your money each month. Without a budget, it's easy to overspend and end up in debt.


Not saving for emergencies.

Emergencies happen, and it's important to have a financial cushion to fall back on. Aim to save enough money to cover at least three to six months of living expenses.


Not investing for retirement.

The earlier you start investing, the more time your money has to grow. Even if you can only save a small amount each month, it will add up over time.


Carrying high-interest debt.

Credit card debt, student loans, and other high-interest debt can cost you a lot of money in interest over time. If you have high-interest debt, make it a priority to pay it off as quickly as possible.


Not having a financial plan.

A financial plan is a roadmap for your financial future. It should include goals like saving for retirement, buying a home, and paying for college.


Get educated about personal finance.

There are many resources available to help you learn about personal finance, including books, websites, and of course someone like myself (financial advisor).


Make a plan and stick to it.

Once you have a budget and financial goals, make a plan to achieve them. And then, stick to your plan!


Get help if you need it.

If you're struggling with your finances, don't be afraid to get help from a financial advisor or other professional.
