Rapport Credit Union

Today’s #FinancialLiteracyMonth tip comes to us from Mackenzie in Toronto. He says Checking my balances and transactions frequently helps me stay on top of my budget. That’s why I love the convenience of mobile banking everything I need in the palm of my hand! #FLM2020

Here’s a short and sweet #FinancialLiteracyMonth tip from Andres in Toronto. "Create a budget, stick to that budget, pay off credit card debt, have a savings plan, and invest." #FLM202

Kelly from Thunder Bay shares her #FinancialLiteracyMonth tip "Teach your children about banking from a young age. Set up a savings account for them and bring them to Rapport so they can deposit and withdraw money. When they are old enough, have them set up their own account, so they can have control of some money to teach them about saving, spending and being responsible with their money. Building a relationship with Rapport will give them financial confidence going into adulthood. #FLM2020

Heidi in Thunder Bay gives her #FinancialLiteracyMonth tip. Regardless of your age, it is never too late to start saving or using a budget. Don’t hesitate to reach out and get help if you’re not sure how to get your plan started. You can speak to your financial advocate at Rapport and we’ll be there to help. #FLM2020

Melissa in Toronto shares her #FinancialLiteracyMonth tip "It’s never too early to start planning for your child’s future, start saving early, make biweekly or monthly contributions based on what your budget will allow and let that money grow in a high interest account. Before you know it that money will come in handy." #FLM2020

We’re half way through our #FinancialLiteracyMonth tips and Cindy in Kingston shares with us today An investment in knowledge pays the best interest #FLM2020

It’s Friday’s #FinancialLiteracyMonth tip from Lennie in Thunder Bay. "Monitor your credit score. Credit cards are the main driver of how your credit score is built and maintained. Watching your spending goes hand in hand with monitoring your credit score. Key elements that can impact your score are: time of established credit, payment history, % of available credit utilized. A good score would be 720 and above. What’s your score?" #FLM2020

Here’s a #FinancialLiteracyMonth tip from our RapportWEALTH team. Ashten in North Bay says Start savings now and automate the process! Every dollar you can save now benefits from compound growth which will make meeting your future savings goals much easier. Having it automatically come out of your account like a bill payment eases the process. #FLM2020

Today’s #FinancialLiteracyMonth tip comes to us from Ola in Toronto. "Everyone should be a little more aware and educated about the potential of identity theft. We live in a time where cybercriminals will make every attempt to steal from you or trick you. Be a little wiser, a little bit smarter and there's nothing wrong with being skeptical when trying to protect your personal information." #FLM2020
