That’s how much you need to save

5 tips to be able to put money away

To be able to put aside a penny every month gives County insurances five tips:

  • Enter a so-called “buy stop” that extends until the date you receive your next salary. At the same time, you sell items you no longer need or use.
  • Eat lunch boxes at work, rather than buying lunch at a restaurant. When shopping, you should also look out for discounts and offers and plan your purchases based on these.
  • Calculate your media costs, in the form of broadband, subscriptions and subscriptions, and review whether you actually need or use them all.
  • Review your interest rates on both savings and loans and contact your bank if you think you could get a lower loan rate or a higher savings rate.
  • Review your electricity contracts, insurances and similar with the help of price comparisons. However, remember that cheap is not necessarily best when it comes to insurance and you need to read the terms and conditions thoroughly.
