Money Skills: How to Set Financial Goals

Posted by Alessandra on Jun 4, 2012 in Money Skills | 0 comments

Setting financial goals is not a skill I learned at school.  As I began to earn money I also began freely spending it.  However, I soon realised that setting financial goals is an important skill that is so necessary in managing money and keeping our debt under control.  My husband and I were only married for a year before we took out a mortgage at 22 years of age.  We had no financial goals set at this stage.  When we decided to see a financial adviser in our thirties, we began to see the benefits of setting financial goals.
