MARSHALL, Mo. – Do you have too much month left at the end of your money? If so, University of Missouri Extension’s Making Money Count program can help you get your finances in order.
“It’s surprising and incredible how a simple process and a few financial tips can reduce stress and help you feel more in control of your finances,” says Trish Savage, MU Extension family financial education specialist.
Savage offers workshops in Carroll, Chariton and Saline counties in April. The workshops consist of three weekly two-hour sessions.
The first session covers how money affects lives and relationships. During the second class, participants learn how to make spending plans and budgets. Savage presents tips on saving time and money with a record-keeping system during the final class.
