Financial Wellness
Definition
Financial wellness is a term used to describe the state of one's personal monetary affairs. There are many dimensions to financial health, including the amount of savings you have, how much you’re putting away for retirement, and how much of your income you are spending on fixed or non-discretionary expenses.

- How can I better examine my priorities and goals when it comes to my spending & saving habits?
- What have I spent money on recently? Were these purchases necessary?
