December 2024 Financial Checklist
It’s the end of the year, which means the festive season is here! From Christmas shopping to summer holidays, December can be one of the priciest months of the year. Not to worry – Our December 2024 Financial Checklist is jam-packed with tips to help you keep your finances intact this silly season!
1. Your 2024 finances Wrapped
As 2024 comes to a close, now’s a good time to reflect on how your finances looked over the past year. Did you meet your savings goals? Identify any areas for improvement to help you set achievable targets and financial goals for 2025. Think of it as your yearly Spotify Wrapped but for your finances!
2. Make a list & check it twice
With Christmas almost here, now’s the time to finalise your budget and set spending limits to help keep your finances in check. Make your list and check it twice (see what we did there?), and shop around for the best deals on gifts, groceries, and more.
If you missed Black Friday on 29 November, don’t worry – many retailers extend sales into December, and Boxing Day sales are just around the corner for post-Christmas bargains.
3. Bag a bargain this Travel Tuesday
Thinking of booking some last-minute summer travel? You’re in luck – Travel Tuesday (the ‘Black Friday for travel’) is on 3 December 2024. Keep an eye out for discounted flights, accommodation, and travel packages.
If you do book a trip, don’t forget to compare travel insurance to find a policy that fits your plans. And for anyone keeping it local and road-tripping it this summer, remember to check your car insurance policy to ensure it covers all drivers before hitting the road.
4. Consider a debt consolidation loan
If your silly season spending stretched your budget – or you’re already managing multiple debts, a debt consolidation loan could be worth considering. Combining your existing debts into one debt consolidation loan could potentially reduce the hassle of managing multiple repayments and interest rates.
You can learn more about and compare debt consolidation loans here at Mozo today.
5. Make money moves this Capricorn season
Capricorn season (starting late December) is all about focus and discipline – the perfect energy for financial goal-setting!
Why wait for January? Harness that Capricorn energy now by exploring ways to grow your nest egg in 2025, whether that be with a high-interest savings account or a new investment strategy.
Well, folks! That’s the last Financial Checklist for 2024! We’ll catch you back here in the new year for more money tips. Until then, go have a geeze around Mozo’s life and money hub for even more financial insights.
