Keeping your finances in shape

During inflationary times, it’s important to keep your personal finances in balance.

Monday, October 10th is World Mental Health Day. According to the World Health Organisation, about one-in-eight people suffer from impaired mental health.

There can be many reasons mental health can be impacted. One of those is financial stress.

According to research conducted by the US firm MetLife, financial stress can cause a series of health-related problems, including migraines, ulcers and depression.

Financial stress can happen due a variety of factors, including loss of income, relationship breakdown and much more! And various people can react to financial stress in a broad range of ways. Some people may be very proactive in seeking out solutions while others can suffer in silence, it is this group that can be most impacted as a result.
