Why should you save?
Unfortunately, life doesn’t always go according to plan. Millions of
Americans every year find themselves unprepared for financial emergencies they
might have never thought they’d be facing. The good news is that saving is
easier than you might think. And we offer lots of easy ways to get started. Step
one is to understand a little thing we like to call the Pocket Principle: if
people have money in their pockets, they spend it. If not, they don’t. The trick
is, knowing where else that money can go.
How to Start Saving
Change your spending habits by turning them into saving habits. Take
financial action:
- Open a savings account
- Build an emergency savings fund
- Get out of debt and improve your credit score
- Use direct deposit to save all or part of your tax refund
- Enroll as an Arkansas Saver
