        • Mallika’s thoughts on financial planning

        “The key to strong financial planning is being specific in your goals and aligning your actions with those goals. Simply ‘saving for retirement’ can seem like an overwhelming task, but saying you’re going to save 15% of your income this year for retirement, determining how much that means you have to save per month and slightly adjusting your spending to do so makes it seem more attainable.”
