5 Money Moves That Put You In Control
Get paid the smart way.
Ask about direct deposit at your job. Faster that checks. Safer than cash.
Know where it goes.
"Do I need this or do I just want it?" Ask before you buy anything.
Save something every week.
Try $5 or $10 a week. Start small and keep doing it.
Learn about credit.
Credit is borrowed money. Use it right, it works for you. Pay on time, keep balances low, and don't open a bunch of accounts.
Protect what you earn.
Never share your PIN. Skip "free money" links. Watch for fake jobs and scams.
Your Paycheck. Your Plan.
