- Have a savings plan. Your savings should take priority over your expenses.Pay yourself out of your earnings. Think of savings as a reward to yourself every month. It’s a good idea to set aside at least 5-10% of your pay check, if not more, towards a savings plan.
- Invest. Aside from your savings and retirement plan, you should try to put away some money into other investments. Need advice on becoming a smart investor? We can help!
