5 Financial New Year's Resolutions

Sometimes getting ahead financially means taking care of the little things. Do you spend your raise or save it? Do you shop for food efficiently? Do you avoid interest by paying off your credit card each month?

New Years day is a good time to try and change some bad financial habits and right your ship. Here are a few ideas for some financial New Years resolutions.

  1. Pay off your credit cards.....completely.
  2. Increase the amount of money you put in your 401k by 1%.
  3. Pay $100 extra a month on your mortgage.
  4. Set aside every penny of your annual raise for savings.
  5. Eat out 1 less night a week.
