The following money management habits can help you become a savvier planner and consumer.

Imagine this, you’ve had a long work week. Monday started off hectic and by Friday you are exhausted but feel you had a productive week.  The weekend has arrived and that means time for yourself and family. The best part though, it is Friday and that means payday! Sweet, time to check your bank account. In this very moment, you realize your check was indeed deposited, but all the funds you had saved last week are now gone. Yikes! Can you recall the expenses you made? Were they even necessary?

However, don’t be intimidated, there are simple and free steps you can take to have more control of your money and Capital Good Fund can show you how.
