Savings account still only has the $5 required to keep it open? Well it’s time to Pivot. There is no shame in starting small. Small accomplishments give you the confidence to save more and eventually get to investing for your future. A few steps to make this a reality-
One: don’t look at any else’s savings plan, that’s for them and you need to focus on you.
Two: Budget. Budget Now, reevaluate, Then Budget again. You will not effectively save if you don’t control your budget.
Three: Start. Don’t wait until you can save $$$, sometimes you have $ and that’s okay. But don’t hesitate, start now with what you can. Then once your budget is set add more.
