Being a couple of weeks into the New Year, a lot of us are already questioning some of those New Year resolutions we made on January 1. Unfortunately, a large number of Americans struggle with continuing that healthy diet or active exercise regimen. These are vitally important to living a quality life and should certainly be a priority.
However, another type of resolution frequently made and broken pertains to financial goals. Be it creating an emergency fund, paying off debt or saving for your children’s college education, we all start out with the best of intentions. Unfortunately, they don’t always last.
In the spirit of encouragement, I’ve found a few helpful tips in an article from U.S. News and World Report* that could ultimately help other areas of your financial life; allowing you to then focus on saving for other important goals such as retirement and education.
