Hi BFF’s!
Did you know Friday, August 14, 2020, is National Financial Awareness Day?
I’m sure you didn’t, and it’s cool. I didn’t either until someone told me about National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! (Don’t judge me) and I went looking. Although you’re still judging me, it’s cool. Let’s discuss National Financial Awareness Day and how we can celebrate it.
National Financial Awareness Day needs to be an actual holiday. In my opinion, corporations need to give employees the day off to celebrate either being Financially Unbothered or taking steps to get there. I know I’m not the only one who gets excited knowing bills are paid, money is in the bank, and you’re not stressed about finances. If you are stressed, it’s ok. I’ve been there before. I know it sounds cliché-ish, but it starts with baby steps.
Money is essential to our overall peace, and what day better than Financial Awareness Day to evaluate where you are and where you’re going financially. Let’s not let poor financial decisions ruin the best days and years of your life.
Here are a few ways to celebrate Financial Awareness Day:
- Invest – You can start small. It doesn’t have to be a considerable investment.
- Have a financial literacy conversation with your children, teaching them the value of a dollar or how to save.
- Create a BUDGET – Find out where you’re spending money and where you can cut back. I know budgeting is trash, but you’ll thank me later.
Take a deep breath, relax, and get financially unbothered–you got this. If you need help, I’m here for you.
Welp friends, that’s all I have today. Don’t forget to follow me:
