Managing your money

How to form Healthy Savings Habits Work out Curated by Professor of Economics, Brit Grosskopt.

Let's begin warming up. Set up a direct debit to go from your current account to a fixed rate savings account. Each payday. Get your savings locked in early, like a morning workout. Then you won't be tempted to skip it later.

Making small changes, they soon add up. Before you know it, you'll be sprinting ahead.

Start small, build big pound, stack up over time.

Try a regular savings challenge, increasing it by a certain amount each week or month.

Set clear goals. No savings. Athlete trains without a plan.

Set a goal and a timeframe to meet it. Get a workout buddy. Speak about your savings goals with friends and help each other.

Stick to them. It's a group workout for your wallet. See the gains flexing. Your financial muscles will give you a buzz as the gains start to show. Cool down. Thank you for taking part in our workout today.

Keep repeating these steps to form healthy habits and see the gains in your bank account. Visit www.postoffice.co.uk/savings to find out more.
