At Evergreen Credit Union, we encourage our members to stay informed and be wise about their financial decisions. Our financial education team is committed to the financial well-being of our members.
Here are a few tips to think about during this time of uncertainty:
Strengthen Your Emergency Fund
A strong financial foundation brings peace of mind. Aim to set aside three to six months of living expenses, but remember, even saving small amounts consistently can make a big difference over time.
Keep Your Budget Flexible
Take a fresh look at your spending and identify areas where you can cut back if needed. Having a cushion in your budget can help you navigate rising costs with confidence.
Spend Wisely
If you're planning a major purchase, take the time to shop around for the best deals as the economic landscape changes. In the meantime, stay focused on your savings and investment goals to keep your financial future on track.
At Evergreen Credit Union, we’re here to help you make informed financial decisions. Whether you’re refining your budget, growing your savings, or exploring better banking options, we’re always ready to support you.
