Start Saving
How can I begin to generate wealth and plan for financial emergencies?
Gain Financial Freedom
One of the key steps to financial freedom is saving. Whether you’re planning on using a tax free savings account or a standard savings account, you won’t get far if you don’t start now. As the famous Chinese proverb states: “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.”
The earlier you start, the more you’ll benefit from it. Research has shown that the average South African doesn’t even have one full month’s salary saved up in their accounts. But what happens when you’re in an emergency, or you suddenly lose that source of income?
Having a savings plan in place will help you to better manage your finances and have an emergency fund in place. Be prepared for those rainy days when things just aren’t going your way.
