2021-02-09 13:30:10 Sometimes, it's not good to take credit for everything (unless it's a killer snap you got for the gram, then credit’s all yours).

With credit cards, know your limits and be sensible in your spending - just like in the gym, if you don't overdo it, you won't break it Here's some quickfire tips!

1. Don't spend more than you can afford to pay back. We all can do basic math right? Hold back on that Supreme money gun mentality, folks

2. Set alarms to pay your bills, or you can even automate it with the bank Here's a rhyme to hold close - "Don't forget, and you won't regret."

3. But for those of us who really can’t control, leave the controlling to us - just set a credit limit on your digibank app, and we'll help keep you in check

Trust me, you don't want mo' money, mo' problems. Be real with yourself, and in the long run, you'll have mo' money, no problems". That’s the dream after all, right? Open / Comment

We all need a little help sometimes and excuse the cheesiness but NAV is really *that* friend

Like any bestie, NAV remembers all your little secrets Start with browsing your financial health over the past months - you can sus out what’s been working and what’s not been working

Like any bestie, NAV keeps you in check. Set up budgets for yourself - this way you’re on track to reach your long-term savings goals

Like any bestie, NAV sets your options out straight for you. Think of it as your friend who’s advising you through your tough relationships. What to do next, what not to do. Except, in this case, it’s the most important relationship of all -
You x $$

2021-01-27 07:26:06 Impulsive spending is the bane of all savings goals.

We know what you’re thinking: “But Admin, I really really want [insert thing]!” And, ok, sure. Who doesn’t want [insert thing]? But try going through this list before any purchase of $50 or more:

Ask yourself “Do I really need this?”
If the answer’s yes, ask yourself if you need this more than the long term goal you’ve set for yourself.
If the answer’s still yes, give yourself a “cooling-off period” of a week, just to ensure you won’t change your mind. [Insert thing] isn’t going anywhere.

Might sound obvious, but these 3 easy steps really work! Next time you think of adding anything to your cart, check yo’self ladies and gents. Open / Comment
