How you save is affected by how you spend, and Fast Food is no exception.

Fast Food Spending in the U.S. reached over $304 Billion. Due to its convenience and relatively low cost, fast food is one of the easiest ways to overstep your budget. Be careful!

Knowledge reduces risk, which is why it's so important to learn and understand the fundamentals of budgeting, saving, and investing.

Lack of knowledge will increase your rate of negative outcomes and poor decision making.

Here's a few tips to help build a strong foundation for your financial future:

1. Get Paid What You're Worth

Whether you're paid by wage or salary, it's important to understand the value you bring to the workplace. Your pay should match your value.

2. Have a Savings Plan.

Put aside a certain percentage of your income towards savings. This will provide a backbone for unexpected emergencies, and help develop better financial habits for long-term goals, such as saving for college.

3. Always set a budget

It may seem tedious, but budgeting is a must for understanding your financial habits. It helps you decide how much money you can save, spend, and invest. Live within your means.

4. Maximize Your Employment Benefits

If your employer offers financial benefits such as retirement plans, insurance benefits, or stock, take advantage of them! These are extremely valuable for building a portfolio and foundation for retirement. The earlier you can utilize these benefits, the greater return you will obtain over the long run.

5. Avoid Credit Card Debt

Remember: Credit is NOT your money! While credit cards are great for making large payments over time, they can become a trap when used improperly. We recommend using credit cards as an accessory for building financial independence (such as building credit), rather than a primary form of payment (like a debit card).

5. Invest For Long-Term Growth

Wealth building takes time. Time is the key to compound interest. Compound interest is vital to making your money work for you. Investing for the long term means letting your money vest for years, not days or months.
