National Retirement Planning Month - Successful Retirement Living

Creating a Spending/Savings Plan

How much money do you make? How much do you take home? How much money do you need to cover your necessary living expenses? Are you spending more or less than your take home pay? Are you saving for a rainy day? Put all your information down on paper, in a spreadsheet, or a software program like Quicken. You’ll be amazed at where you’re money goes and how much you’re spending. Once you make this conscious effort and you pay attention to where your money goes, you’ll be able to make some conscious changes to improve your personal bottom line and save more money.
