Budget Your Money
Once you have organized yourself financially, the next step is to analyze and understand what your income and expenses are. This allows you to see where you spend and/or save your money. Once you know this, we can help you create a monthly budget that includes working towards your financial goals. A budget can help you avoid spending unnecessarily on items and services that do not contribute to attaining your financial goals. For example, if you are working with limited financial resources, budgeting makes it easier to make ends meet. The benefits of consulting us:

Be aware of where your money is going.

Credit Counselling
Bad debt is a terrible burden, one that can jeopardize everything you care most about. Getting out of bad debt is the first step to building real wealth. Not all debt is bad. Debt used to invest, educate or improve your net worth is ‘better debt’. Our main objective during credit counselling is to help you understand the difference between bad debt and good debt and how to utilize good debt to achieve your financial goals. Ultimately, we want to help you use debt to get ahead. Listed below are the Benefits of credit counselling:
-
We have seen STRENGTHENED FAMILIES because they were free from the perils of debt!

A big part of your financial plan should include planning for your retirement.

Our main priority will be to help you preserve the value of your pensions, investments, and any money you have inherited, so you have enough to maintain your lifestyle when you retire. Never just let retirement happen – make it happen because living life to the fullest is important! Steps for retirement planning are:

Determining the lifestyle you are planning for.
-
Creating a financial plan to try to achieve that lifestyle.

Monitoring, evaluating and adjusting.
