Financial Planning — The Uphill Climb

With a sound financial plan, you know where to channel your income, how to budget, and your strengths and weaknesses.

Not many people think of bitcoin when financial planning is mentioned, but everyone should. We’ll tell you why. To grasp this concept properly, you’ll need to know what financial planning is, why it is so essential, and the role of bitcoin. 

This article is the first of many in a series that discusses critical aspects of financial planning and how Bitnob can help make the journey much easier. Let’s dive in!

What is financial planning?

Financial planning is defining your financial goals and creating a strategy for using your present resources to meet those goals. It is one of the many interpretations of the phrase, “use what you have to get what you want.” Creating a great plan takes time, but it is worth it.

Why is financial planning important?

Achieving true financial freedom or bankruptcy rests on proper financial planning. It sounds very grave — and it is. But, an ideal financial plan acts as a guide. Think of it as a loving, older friend who gives you advice and helps you make better decisions about your finances.

With a sound financial plan, you know where to channel your income, how to budget, and your strengths and weaknesses. You also have a clear path that helps you reach your goal. Of course, unexpected challenges and expenses could come up now and then. But when you have a good plan, you always know where you are at every point. So even when you hit a setback, regrouping and finding your bearings is not as difficult.

So, what does bitcoin have to do with it?

No matter how little you know of finance, you know that a great financial plan is incomplete without a solid investment portfolio. This is where bitcoin comes in. Bitcoin is the best-performing asset of the decade, having a total return on investment (ROI) of 230% over the last 10 years. It has performed remarkably well compared to other assets, leading millions to begin investing in bitcoin.

Unfortunately, this is also why many people have avoided investing in bitcoin. The increase in value also means it is now much more expensive. So if you happen to be someone who does not have a lot of disposable income, you might be wondering how you can take advantage of bitcoin and fit it into your financial plans.
