What Is A Financial Log?

❓ Before we dive deep into my financial log it may be important to talk about what a financial log is and why it is an important thing to create and maintain.   So, for starters,  A financial log is essentially a diary about your own finances. With entries about everything you do include information about money you made , bills paid , resumes sent , or simply a little about what you've researched recently, whether it be shopping on amazon.com, looking up on wikipedia.com or nitty-gritty research at investopdeia.org. But, you may be asking why is making and maintaining a financial log important.  Well, it's simple.

A financial log can be used to reflect upon how you've grown your own financial know-how while also keeping track of things you do know yet.  For example, in my ...

Too Young To Work #1

The Starting Point

💰 Welcome to my blog, The Financial Log! To start I believe it's best to explain why I've decided to start this blog. And simply it's because I believe this blog can help people and bring people together that can help each other. In order to provide this, I will be uploading my own Financial Log every so often so anyone can learn from my financial ups and downs. I also plan to post in-depth articles about interesting financial topics whether it be vocabulary or simple tips on how to save money.  Next, I believe you deserve to know a little bit about who you're reading about so I'll give you a little run down. My name is Jared, I'm currently 15 years old and I'm trying to educate everyone about Finances while also learning from others. And yes I know, fifteen may be a bit too young to worry about Finances, however, I believe it's the perfect time to start. If you think about it teens have the time to learn about finances before they become ov...
