you’ll hear what it’s like to be in a real financial planning situation with Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP®. This is Anna and Grant’s fourth session. During this meeting, Dr. Jay digs more into employee benefits with Anna and Grant. In addition, they also review what it’s been like following a budget for the last month. Although this is the fourth meeting, this is their first month following a budget. The first month never goes perfect. They further talk about balancing dining out, spending, and goals (such as travel). It is possible to be on a budget and still travel, it just takes a bit of planning.
