3 TIPS ON HOW TO BUILD AN EMERGENCY FUND

In my previous post on financial literacy, I touched on the importance of understanding money-related dynamics. That means understanding that anything can happen that might cause a significant imbalance in your income and financial goals. However, that shouldn’t be the case.

Financial Literacy- What is it, and why is it important?

Money is crucial in today’s world. Everything has a cost or value, which mostly requires money to get it. As every individual grows, they need more of it.

Now, it is not a shocker that making money is hard. Even if it isn’t for you, you have to make tough decisions on allocating a particular amount to a specific purpose or task every day. I am sure you agree that this is hard, right?

Some individuals get paid or earn money hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, and so on. Others like me, who is a freelance writer, can’t say their exact monthly income and its trends. So, how you use this money to suit your lifestyle while ensuring you save and grow sums up to financial literacy.
