Future Family

  • By taking out loans, you get what you want now but trade it for future spending (because you have to pay off the bills).
  • Your family now shares the financial burden.

Your Future Family

  • The average American gets married and begins a family by the age of 25 (2008).
  • The average age as of 2011 has moved up to 30…why?
  • Due to lack of income, it is not uncommon for young people to be in debt.
  • Only way to get the things we want is to take out a loan.

Family and Goals

  • Budgeting effects more than just yourself.
  • Ex: going to college impacts current and future family.
  • Current: parents help pay.
  • Future: you have student loans (debt).

Financial Goals

Balancing Spending

  • Most of what we want in life costs money.
  • Money you receive through a job or career is known as income.
  • Things that you value most and worth working for may require a financial plan.
  • Budget – a plan for dividing income among spending and saving options.
  • Most budgets are based on long or short term financial goals.

Section 6.1: Choose Your Financial Goals

  • Monitoring short term spending is important to long term success.
  • Consider short term wants and how they can impact your long term goals.
  • Plan accordingly.
  • Set a sum of money aside.
  • A good budget allows you to enjoy yourself.
  • Budgeting also requires opportunity cost.

Short and Long Term Financial Goals

  • Short term financial goals - things you plan to accomplish within a year.
  • Achieved quickly and with little planning.
  • Problem: they add up fast.
  • Long term financial goals > 1 year.
  • House, car, family vacation, college.
