I love Public Holidays. When I was a student, I used to use them for some serious snooozing (and serious boozing), but once you start working 9-5, you realise that Bank Holidays are for doing things which you don't normally have time for.
I'm talking about doing that pile of dishes, washing your clothes, fixing that squeaky chain on your bike - all the boring admin stuff. That's why, for me, Bank Holidays are also the perfect time to re-consider your financial admin too. Can you hand on heart remember what balances are earning what? And have you thought about looking at how much you're spending on the food shop lately?
It's that "should" feeling which we all know, but we keep putting off - I know you know what I mean! Your financial future deserves your attention so be smart with your cash and devote some time to sorting your financial life out.
Here's my Top 5 Finance Admin To-Do's, for those Bank Holiday "Sort Out My Life" moments.

MONEY MONDAY: Top 5 Finance Admin To Get Done This Bank Holiday
It's MONEY MONDAY - the weekend is over so lets get serious!
And here we goooo, the Value topic for you beauties today is a question that I've received countless times...
...Choosing a credit card.
How many credit cards do you have? Do you even have one? Why should you have one? Which one is even best for me?
SO MANY QUESTIONS.
Lets start with basics - my reasons why you should have a credit card.
1. Credit cards are an important way to build up your credit score.
You may not care about your credit worthiness now, but it will be important when you start thinking about buying a house, getting a car on hire purchase, taking out insurance and sometimes even when applying for another job!
You can't get a credit history until you start holding some credit! Debit cards operate on a cash basis, so don't mean anything.
