Financial literacy is a bit of a buzzword lately. But what does it really mean? @thestreet.com defines it as being knowledgeable about money and finance, with a special focus on an individual's personal finances. Being financially literate enables you to make smarter money management decisions that lead directly to a financially secure future, one that protects the assets built by you and your loved ones. Beyond that, financial literacy can also include things like investing,... understanding how interest rates work, passive versus active income, and overall financial planning. Are you financially literate? What is the most practical advice someone has given you about money that you still use to this day? #financialliteracy #howmoneyworks #financialfitness #moneytalks

According to a new U.S. survey, African-Americans view life insurance as more than a means to pay for final expenses. They are increasingly looking to it as a way to transfer wealth and leave a legacy for their families. The New York Life Insurance Gap Survey revealed African-Americans report more financial stress than the overall population, but are also more proactive about addressing it. Nearly 80 percent of African-Americans said having life insurance is a goal for them, ...versus 63 percent of all adults. More than 90 percent of African-Americans said they believe life insurance helps future generations succeed. #generationalwealth #protectyourfamily #askmehow #demographics #AfricanAmerican #Blackfamilies #financialadvisor #insurancebroker

Homeownership is a dream for many families. You CAN make it a reality by sticking to an achievable 3 - 5 year plan with the help of a financial advisor. Check out these top 4 tips from @payoff on how to save towards buying a home: 1. Decide on a comfortable budget - Calculate your total home costs, including mortgage, property taxes and home insurance, which can often add several hundred dollars to your total mortgage. By figuring out how much "house" you can afford, you can ...decide how much you will need for your down payment. 2. Pay down your debts - Consider paying down some of your consumer debt first, which will not only help alleviate some of the financial pressure but also help you secure a better mortgage rate. 3. Pay your future mortgage - In addition to your rent, put the difference between your rent and assumed future mortgage payment into your savings account and treat it as you would any other monthly bill. This habit will get you used to the idea of paying a bigger mortgage and the bonus is that you’ll also be saving toward your house! 4. Pay yourself first - If you want to get serious about saving, calculate how much money you can put into savings first, not just what is left over at the end of the month. #homeownership #saving #downpayment #budgeting #financialadvisor

Children learn by doing and observing. What you teach kids about money today will follow them their whole life, with either positive or negative consequences for their financial future. Here are 2 helpful tips from @daveramsey to teach your kids about money: 1. Use a clear jar to save.... The piggy bank is a great way to introduce the concept of saving, but it doesn’t give kids a visual. When you use a clear jar, they can actually see their money growing and that's way more exciting! 2. Set an example. A study by the University of Cambridge found that money habits in children are formed by the time they’re 7 years old! Set a good example by limiting your credit card use and discussing money matters in a constructive way. They’ll be much more likely to have a healthier relationship with money as a result. #healthyhabits #financialeducation #financialliteracy #kidsandmoney #generationalwealth

Breathe Life, a Montreal-based insurance start-up says new parents, who are inevitably part of the so-called millennial generation, and whose oldest members are in their late 30s, are buying big-ticket items, like homes and cars, but not life insurance. In fact, 75 percent of millennials in North America don’t have life insurance. Why? Young families aren't being educated about why it's important or engaged in a way that suit their preferences and lifestyle. Contact me today ...to learn why life insurance should be an essential part of your family's financial plan! #trends #lifeinsurance #insurancebroker #financialadvisor #financialsecurity #protectyourfuture #protectyourfamily #millenials #the6ix #Toronto
