Finance Habits Everyone Should Have
August 7, 2020
- Keep the cash in your wallet to a minimum—if you lose your wallet, at least you won’t have lost your savings.
- Pay your bills online if possible. It’s better for the environment, and you can often take advantage of an automatic payment program.
- Before any online purchase, conduct a search for coupons or discounts. You may also find the same exact offering on a different site for less!
- Regularly check your credit report for errors, signs of fraud, or even identity theft. Your credit report can be accessed from our Savvy Money portal, learn more at mainesavings.com/SavvyMoney.
- Treat your household like a business—try scheduling a recurring meeting between you and your spouse, for example, to set goals together and keep your finances in check.
