Summer is synonymous with sunny days, family vacations, barbecues, road trips and good times. Unfortunately, many of the things that we all look forward to in the summertime cost money and can cause us to get off track from our savings plan. Back-to-School season is a great time to get back-to-savings, as well.

Planning and saving for the future is a lot like physical fitness. We all have a general idea of what we need to do, but we all have a slip or setback every now and then. You know you need a routine of exercise and eating well in order to stay healthy—in the same way, a financial fitness plan can make reigning in summer spending and saving for the future easier to achieve.

The steps to getting Financially Independent for Tomorrow (FIT), are probably easier than you think. Start by looking at your spending in order to find a few places to trim some fat.

Making a few small changes to your spending can have the potential to free up significant dollars to add to your savings account.

And those savings could make a big impact on your future!
