How To Protect Your Wallet

Stay Informed

It's essential to stay up-to-date on the latest events that could impact the economy. This way, you can be prepared for anything that comes your way. You can subscribe to daily newspapers, listen to business news programs, or even set up Google Alerts for key terms. Nonetheless, getting affected by bad news is easy, so make sure you don't dwell on negative headlines for too long.

Follow A Budget

One of the best ways to weather any economic storm is to stick to a budget. This will help you keep your spending in check and ensure you're not overspending on things you don't need.

You can follow easy financial rules like "50/30/20" to guide yourself. This means that 50% of your income should go towards essentials like food and shelter, 30% can go to discretionary items and 20% should be saved. 

Of course, this is just a general guideline. You may need to adjust your budget depending on your circumstances. We understand it may be difficult as most people are not used to planning their spending, so you can contact a financial advisor to be your partner for a while.

Start An Emergency Fund

An emergency fund is a crucial part of weathering any economic storm. It's a savings account that you only use in case of unexpected expenses like a job loss or medical emergency. It should have enough money to cover 3-6 months of living expenses. This may seem like a lot, but it's essential to have a cushion in tough times.
