A new year brings a new opportunity to get your finances on track. We can help. Here are a few ways you can improve your financial well-being in 2025.

1️⃣ Start by prioritizing your financial goals for 2025. What’s most important to you? Paying off debt? Increasing your retirement savings? Starting a college fund for the kids?

If you need to do all three, our team has some ideas to help you prepare:

▪️Don’t ignore the debt but have a specific plan on how to pay it off.

▪️Don’t sacrifice retirement savings for the college fund. (our team explains in the link below)

▪️While you think of saving, do you have plans for an emergency fund? That’s just as important as everything else on this list.

--

2️⃣ Create a budget that supports your goals. Here’s how you do it:

▪️Take the time to review all of your finances/budget. All money in and out.

▪️Consider the “50-30-20” budget rule. 50% = monthly expenses. 30% = money for you (vacations, entertainment, etc.). 20% = retirement funding and planning for your future

--

3️⃣ Look for ways to save on your insurance so you have more money for the 30 & 20 portions of your budget. Things you can do:

▪️See if you’re eligible for new discounts.

▪️Consider bundling home and auto insurance with one company.

▪️Look at your deductibles to see if you can find savings in a change.

Talking to your insurance agent once a year can help you prepare for major life events and unexpected curveballs. Here’s what to discuss and why it’s important to meet with your agent annually.

❔ What should I discuss with my insurance agent?
When life changes, so do your priorities. In an annual review, talk to your agent about changes in your life, as well as your plans and priorities, to ensure you're protected.

❔ Are there other times I should contact my insurance agent?
Yes! Here are other times when giving your agent a call is worth the time.

1️⃣ Your policy is up for renewal.
Take time to evaluate your needs and your coverage since your last renewal to ensure you’re protected.

2️⃣ You’ve made major lifestyle changes.
Got married, quit smoking or had a baby? These changes can impact your insurance coverage needs.

3️⃣ You bought or received valuable items.
Receiving gifts such as jewelry or buying anything new for your home, like TVs or even artwork, means you might need additional personal property protection.

4️⃣ You’ve updated your home.
Made home or property improvements such as replacing the roof or installing an alarm system? Depending on the upgrade, you may qualify for a home insurance discount.

As an insurance agent, I’m committed to providing you with the best solutions for your needs, so you can experience all that life has to offer.

Give me a call today, and let’s talk!

If you received an expensive gift this holiday season, you need to make sure it’s properly insured in the event something happens to it. Here’s why:

• Typical homeowners insurance policies cover furniture, clothing and other personal possessions, but only up to a certain dollar amount.

• High-value items like jewelry, artwork, smart phones and computers may need additional coverage.

• Do you have any fi****ms or recreational vehicles (like ATVs, jet-skis, etc.)? Those would need to be listed on your policy as well.

The answer is easy: Talk to your insurance agent and make sure everything is covered properly.

While you think about having the right insurance protection, can you spare 10 minutes? That’s all the time you need to do a video inventory of the items in your home. Learn how: cfin.us/How-To-Add-New-Items-To-Your-Policy

As an employee of COUNTRY, Jamie sees the exceptional work our reps put forth to ensure families are protected. It has left a lasting impact.

So much so that when her daughter was born, she knew she needed to purchase additional life insurance.

"As a mom, you always want to protect your children,” she said. “Through life insurance, this is my way of protecting them.”

We want to help you feel more secure with life insurance tailored to protect who matters most to you. Contact me to learn more.
