When you are on a financial fitness journey, you will want to take control of your money and increase your earnings power. There are proven ways to do things to reach your financial goals, from budgeting to spending less than you earn. Putting your finances into order can be quite simple; you just need to know where to start and take that first step.   Today, in honor of Financial Literacy Month, I share tips on how to take charge of your finances. I discuss the theme of this year’s Financial Literacy Month and share essential tips on calculating your expenses, making a budget, and considering your financial goals and dreams. I highlight how to be a smart consumer and how to borrow money wisely while avoiding financial scams. I also share the first steps you need to make to take control of your debt.  “While it may be a little bit of work, it is so important to know the numbers and ensure you are spending less than you make.” - Tracey Bissett This Week on Young Money:   What is Financial Literacy Month
