As well as recharging while on holidays do you, like me also like to cross a few items off the ‘someday’ list?
Here are seven financial wellbeing actions you may have been putting off that are worth finally getting around to doing this holiday period.
- Set up a new account and automated savings plan for a meaningful goal that inspires you. With new habits momentum is more important than magnitude, so start with a goal and amount that you are willing and able to sustain.
- Increase your regular loan repayment so you can be debt-free sooner.
- Set up a compartmentalised bank account structure (‘buckets’) to make it harder to overspend on impulses.
- Create a thorough plan to afford a life that lights you up (a budget). This will help you compartmentalise your accounts well.
- Set up an automated expense tracking app (e.g. Money Brilliant) to help you stick to the plan. This will also help you create a realistic budget.
- Book a meeting with a mortgage broker to ensure you have a great home loan interest rate.
- Book an intro meeting with a financial planner to ensure you’re financially healthy long term
