10 Financial Mistakes You Are Making Right Now

If you are making these mistakes, that is not a big problem, but please, PLEASE do your research on fixing them. I am not here to judge you, I’m here as a wake-up call.

  1. You don’t have a budget

  2. You don’t have a savings

    • So you don’t want an emergency fund? What happens if you lose your job or wanna go on a vacation? BOOOO

  3. You haven’t started saving for retirement.

    • So you’re gonna die working? At like 80? With like grandkids?

  4. You live above your means

    • So Instagram got you our here flexing huh? Ya momma told you you could do anything and ya chose to be someone you aren’t. That’s a good look I guess.

  5. You are abusing your credit cards

  6. You don’t know your credit score

    • Really? Most credit card companies have it as part of your account. It’s like two clicks… Do better. Also, better scores mean more purchasing power. You don’t want that? Sad

  7. You aren’t taking advantage of discounts

    • So you like wasting money? Or are you just rolling in it? If so, Venmo me @Briana-Fountain-1

  8. You aren’t setting financial goals

    • So you have no vision? Hmmm…

  9. You have the wrong mindset about money.

    • You think money is the end-all. Do you think it’s gonna make you happy? You don’t understand it is a tool. It’s not what you want, its what gives you access to what you want. So I ask, what do you really want?
