What Key Elements Do You Need to Know?
The term “financial literacy” refers to financial skills and concepts of how money works.
People who are financially literate are generally less vulnerable to financial fraud, overspending or wastefulness. They do their diligence before investing and are not looking for quick schemes.
Having a strong foundation and knowledge of financial literacy helps support your life goals such as saving for education or retirement. It’s knowing how and when to keep your debt reduction down.
Whether financially illiterate or financially ignorant, this can cause a number of pitfalls accumulating either sustainable or unsustainable debt burdens.
Knowing how to create a budget, plan for retirement, manage debt, and track personal spending are key.
Financial literacy encompasses short-term financial growth and long-term financial strategy.
Developing financial literacy to improve your personal finances involves learning and practicing a variety of skills related to budgeting for things like a home or your wedding; managing and paying off debts such as credit cards or student loans; and understanding credit and investment products. Your finances dictate lifestyle decisions from the type of income you earn to accomplishing your wants, needs and desires.

Strategies to Improve Your Financial Literacy Skills
Create a Budget
It’s best to track your income dollars you receive each month along with what you spend. The traditional way for tracking is to use a spreadsheet, on paper, better yet try a budgeting app. Your budget should include paychecks, investments, alimony, child support and your fixed expenses such as rent/mortgage payments, utilities, loan payments, and discretionary spending, plus savings. It’s important to include non-essentials, too, such as shopping, dining out and traveling, you know the fun stuff we love to do.
Manage Your Debt
By using a budget to stay on top of your debt. HOW? By reducing spending and increasing repayments. Like starting to pay down outstanding loans with high interest rates. Check to see if you have the option to renegotiate repayments and consolidate your loans, or find a debt-counseling program.
Who to Pay First? ALWAYS YOU ...
Paying yourself first is building your savings. Have a savings goal, for instance, a desire to buy a home.You would need to decide how much you want to contribute toward your saving goals each month in order to make that dream become a reality. So the first step is to set that amount aside before dividing up the rest of your expenses.
Pay Bills Promptly
Staying on top of your monthly bills can be tricky and tasking for most. To tackle the task, try using options such as automatic debits from a checking account or bill-pay apps can be a big help with signing up for payment reminders by email, phone, or text.
Invest in Your Future
Most employers offer a 401(k) retirement savings account. Always, always take advantage and sign up by contributing the maximum allowed you can to reap additional money benefits. Another option is to open an individual retirement account (IRA) which can create stocks, fixed income, and commodities. It’s always a good idea to seek financial advice from professional advisors to help you determine your retirement needs and develop a strategy to reach your goals.
50% of your take-home income vs. net income (after taxes) unfortunately is put toward living expenses like your rent, utilities, groceries, car note and car insurance. Whereas 30% is normally allocated for discretionary expenses, like fun stuff such as dining out and shopping for clothes. Giving to charity can go here as well. 20% should go toward the future—paying debt down, saving for your retirement and emergencies. Oh, well that equals 100%, now what?
