Think big expenses are setting you back❓⁣ ⁣

Think big expenses are setting you back❓⁣
⁣
Think again‼️⁣
⁣
Those regular “small” expenses can be budget killers. For example:⁣
⁣
🔸Free trials you forget to cancel⁣
🔸That pastry you always buy while running errands⁣
🔸Hidden fees⁣
⁣
It’s easy to forget about these, but just because they’re not expensive in the moment, doesn’t mean they won’t build up over time😱⁣
⁣
What’s one small expense you want to eliminate?⬇️⁣

It’s day 2 of our holiday ⛄️personal finance gift-giving series with @vko.financial!⁣⁣

Today’s gift idea is making a budget🎁⁣⁣
⁣⁣
(𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯: 𝘐 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳!)⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Your budget doesn’t have to be super complicated💡. All you need to do is get an idea of how much you 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝 vs. 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 in a month💸⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Without this, you’re just guessing❓at how much you can set aside for savings, and can actually end up realizing you can save or invest much more than you currently do! 😱⁣⁣
⁣⁣
❄️𝐁𝐨𝐧𝐮𝐬 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬: Rebalance your investments. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Markets are constantly moving so something that made up 30% of your portfolio may now make up 26% or 33%. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
❗️Rebalance to make sure your portfolio goals are where you want them to be. Do you rebalance?⬇️⁣⁣

We’re kicking off our personal finance week-long

We’re kicking off our personal finance week-long gift guide with retirement.⁣
⁣
If you’ve been telling yourself you’ll check in with “later,” well later has arrived!⁣
⁣
Here’s some quick wins to get under your belt before the new year:⁣
❄️If you don’t currently have a retirement plan of any kind, open one⁣
❄️If you have one but it’s unfunded, contribute⁣
❄️If you’ve contributed but you haven’t allocated it towards investments (i.e. it’s just sitting in a money market) - INVEST IT NOW. All the magical benefits of compounding won’t happen unless you do.⁣
❄️If you’re not maximizing your contributions, how can you start getting closer to?⁣
⁣
For many people, retirement seems so far away. “Why should I put money away now that I might not even see?”⁣
⁣
Trust us - future you 👵🏽will thank past you👩🏽! This little gift you make now will turn into a big reward when you’re ready to retire.⁣
