Are you like most people who have stacks of paperwork lying around? Well it is never too late to start organizing your finances! Here are some helpful tips to keep you organized throughout the year.

• Create a filing system. Have a box or filing cabinet to keep important financial paperwork and color code files according to category.
• Make a special place to keep bills that are due. You are more likely to pay them on time if they are all kept in one place that you know to check every month.
• Always ask for receipts, you never know when you may need them! File these away in their proper space too.
• Make sure you stick with your filing system all year as files come in and also remember to check files that have due dates every month and stay organized to pay these things on time!
