Your Financial Readiness Kit: How to Plan for Uncertain Times

You don’t think about band-aids until you cut your finger. You don’t think about a flashlight until the power goes out. You don’t think about the extra can of tuna until you run out of groceries. But each of these items are a part of your “readiness kit”. The same approach applies to your “financial readiness”. And as Financial Literacy Month gets underway, our focus will be on helping you get ready for whatever lies ahead.
