The 7 smartest things to do with your end-of-year bonus
- Beef up your cooperative contribution. Ideally, you are already putting money into your Thrift Share Capital and Thrift Savings, so cease the opportunity to really give it a big boost
- Build an emergency fund. More than half of the world’s population don’t have an emergency fund
- Pay off any lingering debt
- Aim at a larger savings goal; save more and dream big as there are bigger purchases in the future e.g home, car, child graduation etc
- Give back – benevolence, the needy, charity, relative, religious
- Purchase an asset of intrinsic value like a plot of land in Coopital Palm Estate
- Set aside some money for January, the toughest month of every year
