National Self Improvement Month means Checking Your Credit!

This self-improvement post is sponsored by LifeLock but all opinions expressed here are my own.

Over the summer, I don’t have much time to do anything for myself. The kids are home from school, the pool is open, and vacations need to be planned. I’m lucky I find time most days to get the beds made and dinner cooked.

Once September comes around,  I finally feel like I can breathe again and that means there are a number of things that need to get checked off the to-do list. Organize the medicine chest, take piles of stuff to the thrift store and get our finances in order.

With the holidays right around the corner, I like to know how my finances are doing before pulling out those credit cards to start shopping! Since September is National Self Improvement Month, it makes sense to use this month to learn how to reduce stress, improve our health, and check on the status of our credit.

  1. I worry that my daughter will be a victim of identity theft. The risks are so much higher now that we’re so digitally dependent, and I want a better future for her. My credit was ruined while I was still in high school thanks to self-serving and terrible advice from a parent, and at 28 I’m still years from a good credit score. I want to make sure that she has a different story.

    • Im so sorry you are having to deal with the fallout from that still! I remember being offered a credit card when I started college and am so happy my parents told me no! Hopefully things will improve quickly for you!

  2. I always constantly monitor. Just this past weekend someone had stolen my credit card and thankfully my card company alerted me. I need to check out LifeLock for extra protection.
