The holiday season can certainly pose a challenge for a budget. Join us for On Your Money as our guest financial capability specialist offers tips for staying in budget while finishing last-minute holiday preparations. We also look at the value of setting a budget in the New Year – and maintaining one – and consider the value of financial education for children.

Listeners – how do you budget for the holidays? Have you stayed in budget or gone over? Will you be setting a new budget in 2018? What are your priorities? You can call in during the show at 800-642-1234 or share your thoughts by emailing ideas@wpr.org, posting on The Ideas Network Facebook page or mentioning @wprmornings on Twitter.
