Test Your Money Knowledge During America Saves Week:
Currently, most Americans don’t save enough money for retirement or don’t have enough saved for emergency expenses like home or car repairs. If you’re in that position, you have a chance to take a look at your saving habits and learn ways you can make your financial future more stable during America Saves Week.

You can start by assessing your current savings progress:

  • Do you have a spending plan in place with specific goals?
  • Do you have credit card debt?
  • Do you save a portion of your tax refunds, gifts or other windfall payments?
  • Are you building equity in a home?
Based on your answers to these and other questions, you’ll get advice on next steps you can take to form a strong savings plan.
