By: S. Lieberman During Financial Planning Week, FPA is going to try and build the public's awareness of the financial planning. Many people are so busy with life itself they forget to take care of finances. We try to remind people everyday that it is important to manage their finances wisely. “Financial Planning should not be confined to investments. It should include the wise and sound use of credit; and when that credit has exceeded the families ability to pay, a reputable credit counseling agency, like A New Horizon, should be consulted” Said Steve Stark Chief Operating Officer With financial literacy and monthly articles on our website, reminding people to take care of money matters. Ways to Celebrate Financial Planning Week you can: • Make sure you checkbook is balanced. • Open up a savings account for your children. • Pay above your minimum on your credit cards. • Make a budget worksheet and see where your expenses are going. • Start to save for the holidays and make a budget for it. Don’t go overboard • Get with a financial planner and plan for the future. • Set monthly financial goals and try and keep them. • Instead of going out to eat often eat at home • Make a savings jar that your family can put change into • Go over all your bills and cut where you can (Ex : Cable bill, cell phone bill) Just doing some of these may help you financially and assist you in continuing doing them in the future. “It’s like the old adage I have seen from Hugh D, Culver about Time Management “people don’t plan to fail, they just fail to plan”. It’s the same principal for individuals and families to achieve financial wellness.” Said Peter Carvalho, New Business Development # # # About A New Horizon We have been providing Credit Counseling Services since 1978 including Debt Management and Financial Literacy Celebrating over 14 years as A 501 (c)(3) Non-profit Organization ISO-9001:2000 Certified Operating Nationwide & in Puerto Rico Headquartered in Ft.
