The new year is finally in full swing, and many people have made many resolutions. There is no better time to set goals for the year, but what's the most effective way to do so? Today, we answer just that.

  • Write down all of your financial goals for 2015. Make sure they are precise and that they strike an emotional chord with you. They should be something you want to do and that you'll do anything to accomplish. "Don't just think it, ink it!" 
  • Create a budget. Fore-go some of the things you don't need - don't get as much Starbucks, or cancel the subscription to that magazine you never read, for example. Put a budget in place and follow it relentlessly.
  • Consolidate your loans. If it's possible, try to get rid of that debt completely. If not, start chipping away at those high-interest loans. 
  • Get into low interest. Interest rates are absolutely fantastic no matter where you look. If you're going to keep paying rates, you might as well try to obtain a lower one. 
  • Save for retirement. The journey is always moving forward. As soon as you have a little extra money, be sure to sweep it off the table and put it into something that generates cash flow.
