With the holidays having passed, there has never been a better time to save money. People are always trying to save, but instead of starting right away, they typically wait. People say they'll start saving tomorrow, but soon tomorrow becomes a week from then which turns into a month and eventually a year. There is never a perfect time to start saving, but the sooner someone starts, the better!

With the money acquired from Christmas or Hanukkah, you can brilliantly put half or even a little bit of that money aside to save. The future is unpredictable, so having some savings set aside is a smart idea because no one can ever know what the future will hold. Still need a New Years resolution that you can actually hold onto? With 2017 having just started, there has never been a better time to better yourself. You can start saving by beginning the collection with the money from holidays, and saying that setting aside a little bit of money each month will be your New Year resolution. Even just saving some spare change in a jar will start adding up quite quickly!
