Election years can be unsettling times, as political campaigns dominate headlines and uncertainty looms in the air. It's common for individuals and businesses to feel anxious about the potential financial impacts that elections can bring. However, it's crucial to remember that maintaining financial confidence during these periods is essential for making informed decisions and achieving long-term financial goals. In this blog, we'll explore strategies and mindset shifts that can help instill financial confidence and empower you to navigate the uncertainty of an election year.

Whether it’s trade school, college, or an advanced degree, continuing education can be an excellent way to further your career or make a career change. It can also be profitable: the most recent data from the National Center for Education Statistics shows that, on average, employees with a four-year college degree can earn $20,000 to $25,000 more than employees with a high school-only education. However, tuition and other expenses can quickly add up, so budgeting for continuing education is essential.

Next to buying a home, a college education is the largest expenditure most parents will ever make. The key is advance planning. The more money you save now, the less money you or your child will need to borrow later. It is important to begin saving as early as possible so you can earn interest, dividends, and/or capital gains on as much money as possible.
