Avoid financial sinkholes: Some expenses do not add value to one’s life, like vices, unneeded products or services, overdraft fees and credit interests, and these should definitely be shunned.
Be conservative on lifestyle expenses: Vacations, technology, clothes, family occasions – these are a few expenses that are also significant to one’s life. They are sources of joy and can help in enjoying the journey to financial security. These though should be managed well to make sure that money is not wasted on trivial expenses.
Prioritize emergency funds: With all the uncertainties around, safeguarding one’s health, family, property, and productivity should be a priority. Emergency money and insurances should not be neglected in preparation for anything that could happen.
