We encourage you wherever you may live in the world to prepare for adversity by looking to the condition of your finances. We urge you to be modest in your expenditures; discipline yourselves in your purchases to avoid debt. . . . If you have paid your debts and have a financial reserve, even though it be small, you and your family will feel more secure and enjoy greater peace in your hearts.
—The First Presidency, All Is Safely Gathered In: Family Finances, Feb. 2007, 1
Greater peace in your hearts. If that's not worth it, I don't know what is! For the next two months we're going to be focusing on financial literacy, and I hope you'll stay with me. I know it's a bit less engaging, but I promise you'll learn things that will help you feel more confident, and yes, more at peace!
Stay tuned!
