How often do you stay in touch with your financial planning and decisions?
It can be difficult to buckle down and get on top of your finances, but it can also prove extremely fruitful, according to the results found in a new study. The Harris Poll identified a sample of nearly 2,500 people finding that over half of Americans feel very or somewhat anxious about their finances.
For those who identify themselves as disciplined planners or for those who work with a financial advisor, that number drops to 47% and 46%. When it comes to millennials, and Gen Z, over 66% of those respondents said they felt very or somewhat anxious about their finances. Those people who had an advisor or self-identified as disciplined planners reported better sleep and being happier overall. This generational breakdown also identifies differences in how people view the impact of the daily decisions they make financially.
The youngest group of adults in the United States believe that even their smallest daily purchases have an impact on their long term financial security. From daily decisions to big picture planning, you can make things much easier for yourself and your loved ones.
