The Top Tips To Prepare Your Finances During a Recession

Cue up the 2000’s emo playlist and layer on the black eyeliner as you dive into this emo-inspired episode about practicing responsible money habits. Carla is back on the mic to share her tips to help you prepare your finances during a recession. Take a minute to ask yourself: How much cash do I have on hand? How much debt do I have and what are the interest rates? What are my basic living costs? Do I have any major life events coming up?

After all, creating positive, healthy financial habits is never a bad thing.
