Common Cents

Save Wisely, Spend Strategically!

Did you know? According to the Federal Reserve, roughly 72% of American adults have confidence in their ability to manage their finances, but only 47% feel they are financially stable (SHED, 2024). Financial literacy is the knowledge of how to make smart decisions with money. Key aspects to financial literacy include the MyMoney 5 from MyMoney.gov Earn, Spend, Save & Invest, Borrow, and Protect. A strong foundation in financial literacy can help support various life goals, such as saving for education or retirement, using debt responsibly, and can help a person identify financial fraud.
