Money Minute

Plan for the year with Money

The new year is a perfect opportunity to reflect on your finances and set goals for the months ahead. Your Financial Well-Being score shows how well you can manage your money and handle financial challenges. You can measure it using tools like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's Financial Well-Being Scale, which asks questions about your money habits and goals. This score helps you see how secure you are financially and where you might want to improve. With this information, you can make choices that align with your financial goals.
