Even in times of uncertainty, there are ways for you to look ahead and save for future goals. Here are four tips to jump-start your savings and help you get the most from your money.
 

Set up a savings goal

Saving can be hard — but saving with a purpose is easier. By creating a strong vision for the future, it’ll be easier to see the path that gets you there. It also helps to keep your savings in a goal-oriented savings account, which allows you to separate your savings goals and reminds you of the exciting things ahead.
 

Re-focus your budget

There’s a way to live paycheque to paycheque in a financially healthy way. Add savings as a top-line item in your budget, ahead of almost everything else with the exception of housing, utilities, bills, and food. Commit every dollar to include saving for your rainy-day fund and your short and long-term goals. To help you get started, take a look at our calculators.
 

Automate your savings

Setting an automatic transfer works because you are committing yourself to saving by transferring money before you even have a chance to spend it. Once you’ve allocated your savings and paid your bills, you can live your life and spend knowing you have also put money aside.
