July Budgeting Tip:
Ways to save for your future. Automation allows you to save without having to think about it, because each month funds are automatically deposited into your savings, 401K or IRA/ROTH accounts. The benefits of a 401K and IRA/ROTH account is the compound interest, but beware of the costs for early withdrawals. Saving accounts allow for easy access to funds, but do not accrue much interest. The goal is to save something, whether it is $50 or $500 each month. Don't forget you can also use your withholding to save for a larger refund. While some of these saving techniques do not allow you to access the funds, it would be smart to create an emergency fund prior, just in case. Good luck.
