Preparing financially for the future

Preparing financially for the future

With the perspective of an economic crisis in 2020, some of us already have to rethink our spending habits to make ends meet. Others may feel more financially secure. But when recessions come, they tend to come for everyone.

We have to start reevaluating our budgets, and possibly start saving as much as we can.

How to treat your income

Whatever income you are earning right now should be treated like it’s temporary.

Treat your current income as if it might need to stretch for as long as possible. It doesn't mean you need to cut back on everything, but you might need to consider cutting some of your expenses so that you can put more money into savings.

Saving versus spending

Saving money now is worth more than spending money later. This advice applies to any budget item that you could spend less on now.

Even if it is a really great deal, remind yourself that cash in hand now is worth more than an unnecessary purchase.

The next thirty days of saving

If you're unsure what you should be doing with your money right now, cut expenses and save every bit of money for the next 30 days. Then, reevaluate.

  • Did you trim as much as you could've?
  • Did you purchase anything you regret?
  • Did you fail to purchase something you should have?
  • How did your budget affect your overall quality of life?

Continue to budget, reflect, and repeat while saving as much as possible.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.
