Financial Resolution for the New Year!

As you set your goals for the New Year, consider the costs associated with reaching them. You may need to reduce debt, build your savings, improve your credit score, or create a budget. Start with the right information and make a resolution to strengthen your financial knowledge. BMI Federal Credit Union has free financial education resources that can help guide you:

• Attend a webinar as part of our New Year, New You! series in January. Identify the habits you need to have in place to become a saver, learn different strategies to build a budget that will work for you, and understand how your credit score is calculated to help you build and keep your credit score strong.
• Complete a self-assessment. Rate yourself on the ten fundamentals of financial fitness. Once you identify how you are doing in each of the areas, you can develop a plan to address concerns.
• Utilize our Online Learning Center for self-study on your own time. Explore topics that cover everything from budgeting and saving to managing debt. We have resources for every learning style including modules, short videos, articles, calculators, and more.
• Need a little extra support? You can sign-up for one-on-one coaching or e-mail us your questions. A Financial Coach will meet with you by phone or in-person at one of our branches and help you develop a plan, assist you in reviewing your credit report, or be available for a financial check-in.

By taking advantage of these free resources, you will build confidence and give yourself a great foundation for 2025.
