Hi everyone
It seems that it is getting harder and harder to save these days and working with clients last year gave me an idea to create a simple calculator that took the guesswork out of working out how much someone is capable of saving.
Most people struggled to maintain savings, purely because they had started out trying to save more than they were capable of in their circumstances.
This calculator makes the process easy to work out how much you can save, I thought I would share it here. Hope you find it helpful.
Feel free to check out my other helpful articles and information on my website or follow me on Facebook too.
