Are you ready to Spring Clean your Finances?
Melt Away Your Worries
As the snow clears and the flowers begin to bloom, it's time to weed out your financial clutter:
Credit Cards: Order your free annual credit report from the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion). And shop for lower interest rates.
Investing: Rebalance your portfolio to hit your asset allocation target. Look at the annual fees that you pay for your mutual funds
Passwords: Review, organize and secure! Use different passwords for each account and write them down somewhere safe.
Identity Theft Protection: SHRED ALL DOCUMENTS!
Budget: Review it, and if you do not have one, MAKE ONE!
Relax and Enjoy: Light up the BBQ, kick back with a drink in the warm sun.
With spring comes baseball season, and sometimes strike outs accompany the home run when one swings for the fences; this can negatively impact the lifetime batting average.
The same thing can happen when you invest in Initial Public Offerings (IPOs), commodity trading and taking a risky move such as buying on margin.
Patience is the key to a good investment - take your time and DO NOT try to time markets!
