Is hard to know whats new with extra money. Tax refund, a bonus, and inheritance. We want to have an emergency savings. Thats a huge mistake for people will do other things with their money without keeping psalm for emergencies. If you have an Emergency Fund and place you are fine. I assume that you do. I have a little one. Here is another debate people have, if you have Credit Card Debt, a lot of people have racked up some credit card bills or student loans, should you get those paid off before you start investing in your retirement . Its a great question. You need to do both. If you wait and all you do is pay off debt, youll never safe for retirement. The earlier you start investing huge growth will come.

Thats the way to have discretionary monies you can set aside for retirement or Emergency Funds or kids education or the financial goals we want to achieve. One of the biggest mistakes is not following your credit and i just refinanced my house and is unbelievable how picky the banks are. One late payment on your macys credit card can continue.
