How to Manage Money in a Crisis

It’s kinda ironic that April just happens to be financial literacy month and many have found themselves in a place that money is a concern with job losses, hours being cut back or even less customers buying from your business because they need to tighten the purse string.

So on this episode of the Catch Your Money Show, I’m going to share 7 tips for how to make the best financial decisions during a financial crisis. Now these tips are relevant no matter what the crisis is so even if you’re not in a crisis right now, you may want to take notes in case you need it if you ever find yourself in one.

Also when I say crisis, I’m not just talking to those struggling financially. I’m talking about the impact that a crisis could have if we are not wise with our money right now. 

This is the time to make wise financial decisions so you can lesson the impact of a financial crisis.”
