    Although a greater income is an essential part of a financial savings plan, you need to use the money you earn wisely to achieve your dreams and gain financial freedom. Thorough financial planning is vital to building a secure financial future, and it goes beyond simply earning and spending less.

    Listed below are a few simple tips on drawing a plan for money management:

    • Identify Your Financial Goals:

      The first step to drawing a financial savings plan successfully is to define clear life goals. Like you have to enter a destination on maps to guide you while driving, you need to channelize your money in the right direction.
    • Whether it is to tour the world, provide for your child’s marriage or buy a house, jot down your life’s goals. Having a list of financial goals will enable you to decipher your financial needs, the amount you need to save, and the expenses you need to cut down. Make sure you set down SMART goals, i.e., specific, measurable, adjustable, realistic, and time-bound.
    • Prepare a Budget:

      Budgeting is crucial to wise money management. Make a note of your monthly income, fixed expenses like electricity bills, and variable expenses such as money spent on entertainment. A fair idea about your current financial health will enable you to enhance your savings by spending less. After identifying these factors, create a monthly budget and stick to it. Don’t forget to put aside some money for emergencies in your plan.
    • Protect Yourself and Your Family Against Financial Risks:

      Health and financial emergencies don’t come with a warning. This makes insurance an important component of your financial savings plan. Whether you are young or old, getting a life insurance cover ensures your loved ones are free of financial burden in your absence. Experts suggest that the sum assured should be at least 10 times your yearly income. Add adequate health cover to the plan to prevent the adverse impact of rising healthcare costs on your finances.
    • Make Your Money Work for You:

      Use the money sitting idly in your bank account wisely by investing it. There are various avenues including equity shares, debt instruments, mutual funds, SIPs, etc. that you can explore to create wealth. Depending on your goals, you can distribute your money across investment options to ensure optimal returns. For instance, you can choose to invest in equity stocks if you have a high-risk appetite, whereas SIPs are great if you want to reduce the risk of market fluctuations. Insurance plus savings plans like ULIP are also an ideal way to increase your wealth.
    • Plan for Retirement:

      Financial planning for retirement is now more important than ever. Thanks to the longer life expectancy, rise in sedentary lifestyle-related ailments, and increased risk of chronic diseases. Also, who doesn’t wish to live freely once they retire, making retirement planning an important aspect of your savings plan? Apart from investing in the markets, you can consider guaranteed future plans, annuity, and endowment savings plans to secure your future. These plans provide you with returns in the form of a lump sum payout or a regular income after you retire.

    Following these basic tips will assist you in drawing a financial savings plan. This financial plan would act as a guide for you to oversee your expenses, incomes and investments so as to manage your money better. Nowadays, with tools like a financial planning calculator available online, you can not only manage money well but also take steps towards financial independence.
