5 Quick Tips To Protect Your Finances:
Your Credit Report
Be sure to monitor your credit report consistently for any inaccurate information and fraudulent activity. Many banks and credit card accounts provide monthly monitoring and alerts for free.
Sign Up For Financial Alerts
With today’s technology, we can get instant notifications of suspicious activity by text or email. Take the steps needed to add this additional benefit to your financial accounts.
Personal Passwords
With all of the applications and websites that we need to use to access both financial and entertainment activities, you might have a plethora of passwords to manage. The key is to change them frequently to help protect you from any unknown risks.
Don’t Forget Your Beneficiaries
Life events such as marriage, divorce, a change in employment, and having children will require updates to your financial accounts and insurance policies. Make sure to sign in or make a phone call to keep that most important information accurate.
Create An Easy Savings Plan
Start building or adding to your existing nest egg with contributions to your 401K retirement plan or automatic transfers to your savings account. If you are able, save the maximum contributions that you can afford, and before you know it, you’ll see your financial stability and health soar for your future growth and prosperity.
