Budgeting Pro Tips:
Pay yourself first.
Meet your most important bill collector: future you. Set up regular auto-transfers to your savings account on payday. That way, you don't forget or "accidentally" spend it on something else.
Let’s get visual, visual.
Olivia Newton-John’s fav tip, probably. Psychologists say imagining yourself hitting a goal helps you do it. Make a vision board or tape a motivating pic to your credit card. Cheesy, but effective.
Be specific.
Knowing exactly how much you need to save can help you make a detailed plan of how to get there. So do your research and set your goals...with price tags.
Do a credit check.
Especially if a new home is on your vision board. You'll want a good score to qualify for the best rates on new loans. Your credit report can tell you where there’s room for improvement.
