Personal finance covers several categories and overarching themes, such as managing your money and saving and investing. If we drill down, personal finance encompasses budgeting, banking, insurance, investments, mortgages, loans, retirement, tax, and estate planning to name a few. Your personal finances are uniquely yours and depend on your income, expenses, hitting both short and long-term financial goals, as well as budgeting for your lifestyle. We'll discuss ways to manage your money, as well as the basics of financial literacy and ways to limit debt, and how to use credit cards wisely. It’s important to monitor your credit report so that you can help ensure all your personal information is correct and that the report accurately reflects your financial history.
