Introduction

In this guide, we want to lay out the goals for what we deem are the most important takeaways from personal financial budgeting. 

  • Establish/refine a clear salary range for jobs you are looking at
    • When you are beginning to look for jobs, it is important to have a sense of how much money you'll be making so you can plan your life so it can work on your budget.
  • Position yourselffor negotiating on offer letters
    • If you receive an offer for a certain amount, you should have an idea as to whether this is a reasonable amount compared to other offers in the field. If the offer is drastically off from what you were expecting or from what is common, learning the skill of negotiation will be vital.
  • Talk about finance jargon, adulting, and whatever else is helpful
    • A lot of the information about financial planning can be quite in depth and, frankly, confusing. In this guide, we hope to break down some of the terminology and approaches that are common in financial planning.
