If you ask most Americans what the major sources of stress in their lives are, the number one answer will almost always be money and finances. The stress and anxiety that come with financial problems have far-reaching effects on our lives — they can lead to marital problems, issues at work, even poor physical health. Financial wellness, then, is a critical cure to much of what ails us. But what is financial wellness?
Financial wellness is more than having some money in savings or a retirement plan; it’s more than credit repair or debt management. True financial wellness is an overall satisfaction with our financial lives, brought on by a number of things, including financial knowledge and behaviors like budgeting, saving, and the smart use of debt, etc.
At Alabama ONE, the financial wellness of our members is our ONE. It’s our highest priority. That’s why we offer smarter products that bring real value to your life. It’s why we offer programs like FinTalk Academy and KOFE to help you learn, to help you plan and to help you create a financially healthier life.
