Additional financial considerations for members:

  • Live within your financial means:
    • Review your spending habits and reduce where possible. Little changes can add up to big savings!
    • Review & shop around for better deals on expenses such as utilities, home or car insurance policies, and internet and cable. 
  • With future pay raises or a bonus, increase your retirement savings through Peach State Reserves (PSR) contributions. The earlier you begin saving for your retirement, the greater the financial stability in your future.
  • Save for an emergency: 3-6 months of expenses
  • Student debt: Pay on time. Student debt is the only debt not dischargeable through bankruptcy.
  • Credit card debt:
    • Pay on time and always pay at least minimum balance.
    • Pay off highest interest card first and then move on to the next.
    • Do you know your credit score? Check your free credit report yearly for accuracy. You can find links to all three credit reporting agencies on our Useful Links page.
  • Cyber security protection for your information and access points:
    • Protect your personal information
    • Use strong user IDs and passwords
    • Only access sensitive information on secure WiFi
  • Build a cash reserve savings account for emergency expenses. 
  • Four must-have documents:
  1. Will
  2. Revocable living trust
  3. Durable power of attorney for finances
  4. Durable power of attorney for healthcare
