Saving starts with small initiatives. The earlier we start, the better and stronger our savings portfolio will look. However, sometimes the hardest thing is to get started. A lot of times, we end up pushing our saving plans to the back seat.

MAKE IT SPECIFIC: Set up specific savings accounts for every goal

MAKE A BUFFER BRACKET: Set aside money for them emergencies and rainy days
MAKE IT A JAM JAR APPROACH: Divide your money into separate pots for different expenses
