A NEW YEAR OFTEN MEANS NEW GOALS AND DREAMS. AND, WHILE MANY PEOPLE TEND TO FOCUS ON FITNESS- OR CAREER-GOALS, THERE'S ONE AREA THAT COULD USE MORE ATTENTION: PERSONAL-FINANCES. IN FACT, RESEARCH SHOWS THAT OVER HALF OF AMERICANS FEEL THAT THEIR FINANCIAL-PLANNING COULD USE SOME IMPROVEMENT. "NORTHWESTERN MUTUAL" BELIEVES THAT--LIKE ANY RELATIONSHIP--CREATING A FULFILLING FINANCIAL-LIFE REQUIRES ATTENTION, CONSISTENCY, AND COMMUNICATION. IF YOU HAVE A FINANCIAL-PLAN, DON'T NEGLECT IT: MAKE A QUARTERLY DATE TO REVIEW YOUR PLAN--IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE THAT IT ALIGNS WITH CHANGING PRIORITIES AND RESOURCES. WHAT'S MORE, CANDID CONVERSATIONS WITH LOVED-ONES ABOUT IMPORTANT TOPICS--LIKE LIFESTYLE-GOALS, RETIREMENT, AND LONG-TERM CARE--ARE ESSENTIAL TO A SOUND FINANCIAL-STRATEGY. ALSO, CONSIDER BOTH REDUCING YOUR DEBT AND SEEKING PROFESSIONAL-GUIDANCE, TO LEARN ABOUT AVAILABLE OPTIONS--IN ORDER TO MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR MONEY.
