TIP #2  Set Budget and Fianancial Goals in  MyFinance Budget Tool


We also recommend developing a budget and goals each year.   We have a free easy to use budget and financial management tool available  in your Online Banking.  It's the tab that says MyFinance.  It may take you 30 minutes to set up your budget but it's well worth the time you invest in doing it.

TIP #3 Automatically Transfer Money To Your Savings


Set up automatic transfer of funds into your savings account or EASYFlex CD.  Your savings will build quicker and you won't have to remember to manually transfer it each pay period.  Many people run their household on what is in their checking account and they sock away savings for large purchases, emergencies, retirement, or family vacations.

TIP#4  Consolidate Your Debt


Consolidate your debt into one loan amount and make one monthly payment instead of several monthly payments which may add up to more than one monthly payment.
