What does being "financially healthy" mean to you?

Being financially healthy to me means that you are aware of where your money goes. Being able to understand how to prepare for the future is a major part. Ensuring you are able to meet your day to day needs and expenses as well as creating a good financial foundation for the future. Being in control is one of the key parts when it comes to financial health as well. Staying out of debt or ahead on payments will help you in the long run.

What motivates you to be financially healthy?

Knowing that one day I will look back and not regret my actions motivates me. Regret is one of the worst feelings and regret often occurs when it comes to money. It may take some sacrifices now, but eventually you will be glad that you took those sacrifices. I one day want to have a family and I want to be able to provide and life comfortably.

What is one of your main financial goals right now, and why?

Currently my largest financial goal is to keep investing. Now is a perfect time to buy stock and it will help me in the next 20 years. I want to build as large of a foundation as I can now, so that compound interest is on my side sooner than later. I want to stay debt free and eventually own a house, and investing now will help me successfully prepare for that.
