Gen X Finance on The Top 12 Money Mistakes Most People Make
There’s an excellent post from Jeremy over at Generation X Finance, Top 12 Money Mistakes Most People Make. It’s a really great overview — broad enough that it covers areas where we all fall short; detailed enough that it gives good links and action steps for rectifying problems.
Here’s the list, but you can check out his entire piece for the full story.
- Not Living Within Your Means
- Failure to Budget
- Lack of Goals
- Having Too Much Debt
- Not Saving Enough
- Inappropriate Amount of Savings
- Lack of Estate Planning
- Ignoring Disability Insurance
- Lack of Diversification
- Losing Focus
- Being Naive
- Not Asking for Help When You Need It
I know I need to pay more attention to my lack of estate planning, and I should also do some more research into disability insurance. But the whole post is good, and I wanted to share it with all of you.
