With the perfect amount of time left before the end of the year, fall is a great time to really analyze your personal finances. Kimberly Palmer, a NerdWallet representative, posted some financial to-do’s to take care of this fall on tucson.com, here’s what she had to say:
Increase Short-Term Savings: As past years have presented, you never know what the next year will look like. Therefore, building a “cash pile” early can help with unexpected payments or an opportunity to invest.
Be Ready for Tax Season: Especially if you’ve encountered any major financial changes in the past year that could impact your taxes, consider speaking with a tax professional early, instead of during their busiest time of the year.
Reflect On This Past Year: Analyze your workplace benefits and ensure you’re comfortable with the insurances you’re committed to.
Contribute to Your Retirement Fund: Holiday spending season is upon us and any extra money you can contribute to your financial future now will be extremely helpful.
Predict 2022 (The Best You Can): Whether you’re thinking of changing jobs, going on a vacation, or doing a big renovation project, it’s important to anticipate the bigger expenses you’re planning to incur so you’re ready to afford it when the time comes.
