How many of you know when you started saving for the future and made a strategic plan to secure your future?
Most people learn a bit of money-saving tips from their elders when they start their professional life. However, the time has changed, and today, millennial are getting financially literate from their toddler age. Yes, that’s true!
From day one of getting their first pocket money, millennial learn finance management through various online sources (YouTube videos, Novels, Blogs, Podcasts, etc.).
Undoubtedly, once they enter professional life, they come across the need for a cash advance situation. But right budgeting is the game-changer that can help them plan from what they earn alongside saving for their future.
So, here are the crucial budgeting tips every millennial must follow.
Start with Budget Preparation: Millennials’ initial challenge is creating a budget that can work for them. Yes, a budget never works the same for everyone. Hence, you must give time to create a budget that matches your income, spending behavior, and future goals.
The best way to create a budget is by bifurcating your expenses into three categories, i.e., NEEDS, WANTS, and SAVINGS. Filtering your monthly expenses under these categories will tell you what mandatory expenses must be added to your budget.
Note that you can eliminate WANTS based on your income and saving goals.
Overcome FOMO: Millennial have a higher tendency to undergo FOMO that compels them to spend more than they need and end up with nothing by the month-end. Moreover, some millennial stop putting money aside for future goals and get affected by FOMO syndrome.
FOMO is the acronym of ‘Fear Of Missing Out’. Yes, in the digital world, where everything is available with a few clicks, millennial get fascinated by what’s trending and hence make investments/spending without adequate knowledge.
You should overcome the FOMO syndrome and stick to your budget if you are highly charged towards your future goals.
Visualize Your Future: Most millennial are already aware of the term ‘Financial Freedom,’ and some of them are high influencers with it. However, it’s tough to achieve it without a smart investment plan. Above that, it’s important to start saving early.
Some of you have dreamt of buying an expensive car, home, or foreign holiday vacation. But, without planning and future visualization, it’s tough to stick to your saving goals and achieve financial freedom.
Avoid Credit Facilities or Debts: Millennial are mostly indulged in getting credit facilities as soon as they get into their professional life. However, lack of knowledge leads them to create overdue debt that ends their future and continues repaying a high interest for a long period.
Instead of getting credit facilities or using credit cards at an early age, you should focus on creating wealth and making investments according to your plan.
Budgeting will help you achieve your goal on a month-on-month basis and take you to new heights with the power of compounding. It’s time to start preparing your budget and stick to it till your goals are achieved.
