Managing Money means making choices. There is never enough money for all the things we want. What you must do is decide what is most important to you. For example: Housing – do you choose to:
a. live with family
b. share housing with friends
c. rent place of your own
d. buy home
Whichever your choice, there are other choices you will need to decide such as how much is your monthly income? How much will you be required to pay monthly? how much is housing insurance? How much are utility costs? What type of furnishings will you need? It begins with a financial plan such as a Budget. If you are interested in attending a class for additional information, contact Tara Brown, Jefferson County OSU Extension Educator for Family & Consumer Sciences/4-H Youth Development.
