What is Financial Wellness?

‘I don’t know how much I should save!’

‘I don’t know how much I pay on taxes!’

‘I am not sure if my finances are on track!’

Have you heard yourself saying these things? You must read our financial wellness blog series to answer them & improve your understanding of your own finances.

Financial wellness is a state in which you are in complete control of your finances and have a financial plan that assures you of financial security in the foreseeable future. At the same time, there are many components to financial wellness.
  • Financial Security: A  state where you have a stable source of income, and you can maintain your desired lifestyle while still being able to save some money for the future. Being debt-free or having a clear time-bound plan to get debt free are crucial components of financial security.
  • Financial Independence: This is a state in which your interest in income/passive income exceeds your lifestyle expenses. This gives the person complete freedom to pursue whatever goal they wish to follow in their life without having to worry about paying their bills or supporting their family.
