It’s a new year, new you, right?
Sure, we all talk a good game. You know, “this year I will spend less and save more” or “this year, I will plan for my retirement and put away for my kids education.”
That’s all well and good until your debit card (or worse, your credit card) goes amok every time it hits the grocery store/drugstore/department store. Call it the blessing and curse of modern shopping, but nearly every type of store seems to stock exactly what you’ve been looking for – clean white serving dishes, shiny new lip glosses, cheap but chic kids clothes… It’s enough to cause even a financially conservative girl to continually spend a little more than she intended, tossing her savings plan to the wishful wind.
But the problem is not the credit card (or those killer heels) calling your name. The problem is the lack of a plan. A plan to whittle away your debt, increase your savings, and get your spending under control.
Enter your debt coach
Lucky girl, we’ve brought in a ring leader. She’s one of Canada’s foremost debt experts (and a GGF favourite) – Stephanie Holmes-Winton – and together she has helped Golden Girl Finance create a debt and savings plan to whip us all into financial shape.
It’s called a ‘lootcamp’ and whether you’ve got a whole lotta baggage weighing your wallet down, or just a little money muffin top that could use some cross-training, think of this as your 5-minute financial trainer.
