Spring is in full bloom! The beginning of a new season can be a great time to revisit your financial habits and goals. If you're ready for a fresh start, here are a few ways you can save better this spring:
Refresh your budget
Does your monthly budget need a little spring cleaning? Take a close look at your budget to see if you need to make any changes based on your income and expenses. You can use a personal budget worksheet, spreadsheet or online budgeting tool like Money Management, a free service of Wright-Patt Credit Union (WPCU), available in Mobile and Online Banking.
Grow your savings
Plant the seeds for your financial future
Consider taking some time this spring to review your financial goals and how you'll make them happen. What “seeds" can you plant today to achieve greater financial flexibility and freedom in the future? For example, if one of your goals is to buy a house, try putting a set amount in your savings account each week as a way to save for a down payment. If you want to organize your finances, scheduling automatic payments for your ongoing expenses is a great place to start!
