To my male clients, family, friends and colleagues - "Health is your greatest wealth, which is why it is so important to take it seriously."

My question is, when it comes to MEN (and I'm looking at the fathers, sons, brothers, husbands and uncles out there), why does it seem taking care of your health does not come naturally?

Find 3 important health checks that all men should undergo in the blog post below - and SHARE THIS with the men in your life.

"Better Financial Futures for New Fathers"


First-time fatherhood brings with it feelings of joy and excitement πŸ˜ƒ, but it can also cause anxiety 😰. You’re no longer living for yourself alone. Instead, you become aware that all your actions impact a new person that is wholly dependent on you πŸ‘Ά.

This alone can make you want to rethink a few of your choices. For new fathers, the desire to contribute to the financial freedom and a fruitful life for your family is paramount πŸ’ͺ🏑.

Financial freedom may not be something that happens overnight πŸŒ™, but with the right tools πŸ› οΈ, knowledge πŸ“š, perseverance πŸ‹οΈ, and discipline 🧘, it is possible.

Here are some TIPS FOR NEW DADS to get started on your journey to financial freedom:

Educate yourself
- learn what financial freedom means to you and how to manage money.

Pay off debt
- there are different methods like the snowball or avalanche, find what works for you!

Create a budget
- with a new baby, expenses change, so make sure your budget reflects that.

Build an emergency fund
- aim for 3 months of living expenses to cover unexpected costs.

Get life insurance
- protect your family in case something happens to you.

Invest for the future
- explore stocks, ETFs, or real estate (do your research first!).

Save for retirement
- plan for your golden years so your kids can focus on theirs.

Save for education
- start saving early to ensure your child has a bright future.

Follow for more tips like these.

🚻 DADS - YOU NEED TO HAVE A WILL.

HERE'S WHY:

πŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œ

Having a will is not a luxury of the wealthy; in fact, one could argue that middle income earners require the protection of a will more so than their wealthy counterparts.

Should you die without a valid will in place; the winding up of your estate will follow the requirements set in the Intestate Succession Act, thus disregarding any wishes that you may have had regarding the disbursement of your wealth.

πŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œ
What about your kids?

Should your heirs be minors, their inheritance will be placed in The Guardians fund to be managed by the state until they are 18 years of age. The surviving spouse may end up receiving a much-reduced share of the inheritance.

πŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œπŸ“œ
Did you know...

After all assets are sold, there is a possibility that the surviving spouse may not have sufficient funds to provide for the basic necessities of the household.

Make sure you have the final say, draft a will!
