Work is an integral part of life. We spend a major portion of life hustling at work, to ensure all our goals are met. To build a lifestyle that fulfills our needs and aligns our wants. It’s natural,  employers offer health and retirement benefits to boost employee engagement and productivity levels. With stress levels on the rise and personal finances being a contributor, employers have felt the need and acknowledged the importance of providing employees with financial wellness services. Should you as an employee remit this perk? 

Many times employees are unaware of this service being offered or choose to overlook its benefit on account of privacy. If you haven’t already signed up for this advantage, here’s why you should consider it. 

1. Learning is perpetual 

Change is not the only constant. Learning also never stops. School curriculum may have sidelined the topic of money management but in the journey of life, finance is an essential component. When you subscribe to a financial advisor’s service, you are signing up for their service that brings with it extensive experience, unparalleled knowledge, and resourceful insights; filtered to match your requirement and your situation. With family, work and recreation, it’s hard to leverage time to keep everything aligned when it comes to your personal finances. Financial planners are experts in the field of personal finance who  guide you, draw a roadmap and work with you to help you achieve financial protection and eventually financial freedom.

2. Secured Finances = Less stress

Breaking from the clutch of paycheck dependence is a deal breaker. The better your financial management, the lesser financial stress you experience. You don’t have to worry about unforeseen expenses. You have an emergency corpus in place. You already have an estate plan. You’re aware how your finances are doing periodically. Added bonus? Much like your travel planner, your financial planner will always plan the best itinerary to help you traverse and make the most of any unfamiliar territories aka investment instruments.

3. Magic happens when you decide to start 

You never have too much time for anything nor are you short of any time to chase your dreams. It’s all about priority. Make your finances an equally important affair. Whether you’ve just started a job at the company or are a middle manager or someone who has an experience of 2 decades, financial planning at all life stages is vital. Don’t let your responsibilities overshadow your dreams. 

4. Creating a demand for the service.

Everything you do, every decision you make is based on your financial standing. A meal without salt is tasteless, so is a life without financial security. Yet the need for  financial planning is overlooked. When you demand for a service like this, you’re equipping your life and paving the demand to retain and hike the need for this service. Take the leap to base your decisions rationally on a financial plan that is designed by an expert.
