A Monthly Financial Check-up with Pete the Planner
When it comes to preventative health there are few things more important than getting your recommended screenings. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a screening for your financial health? There may not be an official screening but there is a way for you take stock of you financial health, it’s called ‘The Financial Fifth.’ On the fifth of each month, take 20 minutes to work on your finances. Those 20 minutes will be spent reviewing last month’s purchases and budgeting and planning for the coming month. The Financial Fifth is both proactive and preventative. If on the fifth of the month you determine that last month you over-spent on groceries, this month you will keep an eye on that spending category. Financial health can be just as important as your physical health so take time on the fifth of the month to give your money the attention it deserves.
