Home economics is the efficient management of the resources that are part of your home. In addition to cutting expenses, it involves organizing the family budget, optimizing time on tasks, saving energy and even promoting sustainable consumption.

- Make your family budget: list income and expenses and categorize expenses to know the origin and purpose of your money. Financial applications, such as Inter's Super App, provide tools and even AI (artificial intelligence) assistants to help manage personal finances.


- Have a clear diagnosis of your money: with all the information at hand, evaluate signs of financial risk - such as debts in arrears or not, lack of emergency reserves, and spending within the monthly income limit, for example - and possible solutions. Earning extra income, or cutting out superfluous expenses and services you don't use, are possible options.


- Prioritize saving and investing: in addition to everyday needs, your money must be organized to always be available when you need it, in addition to ensuring the growth of your assets and financial security. Using piggy banks for emergency reserves and starting to invest with a small amount per month will help you with this.


- Change your habits: domestic economics goes beyond just spending money. Healthy eating and activities prevent excessive spending on health problems or wastage on supermarket purchases.


- Look for efficient products and services: household appliances that use little water and energy, electronic devices of good quality and duration, and conscious use of your material resources goes beyond sustainability practices and conscious consumption. They save your money.


- Free financial services: there are financial institutions that offer credit cards with no annual fee and other free products and services that avoid loss of profitability or costs in managing your finances.


Advantages go beyond financial education
There are studies that indicate that a lack of organization and financial planning causes high levels of stress. Therefore, taking care of the domestic economy is a way to make your daily priority your well-being, and not survival on the edge.


Other health benefits of personal finances include:


- Elimination of "invisible expenses" and unwanted interest;


- Always pay your household bills on time;


- Prevention of unforeseen financial, health, home maintenance or unemployment events;


- Reduction of waste, with a more conscious life, valuing your money;


- Conscientious use of utilities, with reduced bills and environmental sustainability.
