Personal finances are preoccupying many employees. A person may be doing well but still is worried about the money. Will he or she make enough to get to the end of the month? Can those major bills such as college debt be paid promptly? Are penalties assessed for late payments? Concern about cash can distract a hard-working employee from critical work projects. Countrywide has a program that deals with financial wellness. We enhance the quality of our services by using the right tools.
Assessing Cash Flow and Value
Sensible planning requires understanding cash flow. No one should live from paycheck to paycheck, but people do this because they don’t know where the money is going. Countrywide’s nationwide network of certified counselors will help end the confusion.
These financial professionals will perform a budget analysis for the financial wellness plan member. The ebb and tide of cash flow are examined and counselors will determine where some adjustments can be made to make it easier to pay bills and put aside money for later. The plan member finally has an idea of how he or she spends the money earned.
There are some oversized ticket items that an employee would like to buy. Property is one of them and mortgages take out a large piece of anybody’s income. The larger the down payment, the smaller the mortgage obligation. It is essential to know how much of a mortgage someone can afford.
There may be specific assets that a person can cash in to supply the money needed for a large down payment. These include stocks, bonds, old insurance policies, and even collectibles. Countrywide counselors have no problem doing asset inventories for the financial wellness plan member. It is interesting what comes up in these assessments of overall asset value. People are pleasantly surprised that they are worth much more than they ever imagined.
The Best Help in an Emergency
The quarantines and lockdowns created a financial crisis for many individuals. It is sad, but many were caught in a severe money crunch and had trouble paying the bills. Countrywide has the tools needed to change the situation.
We have a Debt Management Plan that helps people resolve the issues. It costs a little more, but it provides the counseling and assistance anyone needs to regain financial wellness. Anyone in desperate straits is going to appreciate this little extra help that Countrywide offers.
