According to a Fidelity study,* nearly 50% of consumers say they typically consider making a financial resolution for the new year. The most popular resolutions are to save more, spend less, and pay off debt.
America Saves Week, February 24 – March 1, 2014, is a time to review your finances, decide what you want to save for, and set up a system to save automatically. If you are already saving, take a look at your goals and decide if you can save more or start a new savings goal.
Fidelity 1% Savings Challenge
To kick off America Saves Week, Fidelity is sponsoring the 1% Savings Challenge. Just save an additional 1% more to your BMC 401(k) account and see how small adjustments like this may make a big difference over time. Learn more about the power of 1% here or call 800-354-7120.
