Midweek Money Tip
Switch to "cash only" spending!

Try switching to paying cash for your daily expenses. Calculate how much money you need for your essential purchases for groceries, fuel etc. This could also include your "spending money" if you have this allocated in your budget. Withdraw your cash for the week and then leave your card at home!

It's so easy to not think about the money you are spending when it's become so easy to swipe or tap your card (or phone!) This can often allow you to spend more than you had planned - potentially leaving you short of funds to get you through until your next pay day.

Having a cash only budget keeps you aware of the money you are spending - as you can physically see the money leave your wallet and it keeps you on track as you can't spend money you don't have!
If you don't want to commit to this long-term - why not challenge yourself to do it for a week? What have you got to lose? You could learn something about your spending - or even unexpectantly save money - as a result!

If you need support in setting up a sustainable budget, get in touch with our team. We're happy to support you in finding a system that works for you and your goals!

Midweek Money Tip:
Paying off your debt faster!

Are you tired of the ongoing strain of your debt?
How great would it feel to be able to get out of debt faster than the timeframe forecasted?
It is possible to be in a better financial position, with less debt, in a year's time.
But you need to start making changes NOW.

Clearing your debts may seem like an impossible task, but whatever you do, don’t stop chipping away at them. Remember, the longer your debts stay with you, the more you’ll have to spend on interest.

How much attention do you pay to your debts?
By just making a slight increase to your regular repayment amount you can help pay your debt off faster and reduce the amount of interest you pay long term. A simple way to do this is to round up your repayment amount to the closest dollar ($34.25 becomes $35) or the closest $10 ($26.50 becomes $30) - whichever you can afford.

Not sure where to start? Our financial mentors can help you navigate ways to manage your debt as well as mediate with creditors.
We may also be able to look into options of switching your debt to a Microfinance loan which has low to no interest. (Eligibility criteria applies)
Or you could consider different strategies available that can make debt repayment more manageable, like debt consolidation.
