FINANCIAL LITERACY
Definition
Financial literacy is the ability to understand and apply various financial skills, including budgeting, investing, and other financial management strategies.
Why It's Important
My, oh, my! Financial literacy is critical to master as it affects everything in your life, from well-being and relationships to opportunities that are afforded to you. A financially literate person has a much better chance of being "successful" with money. This is why I built this whole platform. My personal goal is to see as many people as possible to become financially literate. It is imperative!
I joke and say people treat you differently when you know about money on social media, BUT it is true! I have had salespeople and lenders tell me this. So, I took that information and decided to help so YOU won't be taken advantage of.
Want to see how financially literate you are? I made a quiz to test your skills. You can check it...
THE SECRET OF WEALTH LIES IN FINANCIAL COACHING!
Money and wealth are two things that everyone needs to survive in this world, and it allows a person to build a standard of living. But the real problem is, how to earn that much wealth through which you can live comfortably?
Well, there is no big secret to this. It is as simple as spending less than you earn and investing the rest wisely. The dilemma of this situation is that everyone knows this, but most people are unaware of how to get it done correctly.
To bridge that vast knowledge gap, financial coaching has evolved, which will provide you with experienced advice and partnerships to jump-start your mission of building wealth for yourself.
What is financial coaching?
Financial coaching aims at providing one-on-one sessions with clients so that those clients have the knowledge they need about different trends in financial markets and how they can improve to meet their goals. These financial coaches will also provide their clients with encouragement and morale boosters, and they...
CAPITAL GAINS
Definition
Capital gains are the profit from a sale of property or an investment
Why It's Important
When you have investments, you are not taxed until you have capital gains. Capital gains are only triggered when you make a sale at a profit. This is the opposite of realized loss. With both situations, a sale is what triggers each tax treatment. Capital gains are a good problem to have because that means you are making money!
There are two types of capital gains, long-term and short-term. Short-term capital gains are taxed at your current tax rate. Short-term means that you held the investment for less than a year (generally a no-no). Long-term capital gains are after you have held your investments for longer than a year. These get preferable tax treatment. For instance, if I was a single tax filer and made $45,000, my short-term capital gains rate would be 22% while my long-term rate would be 15%. See the difference!...
CREDIT UNIONS: SAFEGUARDING YOUR INTERESTS
Introduction:
Almost every person on the planet is familiar with banks. Everyone has had an experience, whether good or bad, with it, and due to this, the majority of the population always gravitates towards banks, not knowing that other options exist. Whether you want to or not, you might find yourself in the footsteps of a bank, without any clue of alternatives that could change your life.
Banks are profitable corporations that strive to provide for not only you, but itself too, by bulking up on money that you pay, in the form of interests or fees, and paying its shareholders rather than finding another use of the funds. Although this allows the fluidity of finances and gives the bank the margin to grow or increase its assets, it can also have a shortcoming in the form of less focus on the customer.
You may feel frustrated that the kind of service or packages you require is unavailable in a bank. You may also be frustrated by the high-interest rates or the hefty fees that...
