Do You Know How Much You Spend Every Month?
Today, it's really easy to whip out your credit card or swipe your phone to pay for all kinds of stuff. In fact, it's so easy that many of us spend money without really thinking about it or pausing to add up all the little things we buy during the course of the day.
Unfortunately, if you're not paying attention to your purchases, you could spend too much without realizing it. If you aren't spending mindfully, it's also likely you're buying things with your hard-earned cash that you don't really need.
You don't want to jeopardize your financial goals or get a poor bang for your buck because of your casual spending. And you don't have to if you track your spending to see where your money is going.
