Financial planning for freelancers is vital to career success. Irregular income, lack of employment benefits, and ever-changing industries are all reasons freelancers should prepare for the future.

In this thread, we will go over some steps you can take.

Tweet 2:
Set financial goals.  Setting financial goals allows freelancers clarity on what they are working towards. Without financial goals, freelancers can lose track of what is essential for long-term financial security. Goals serve as a constant reminder.

Tweet 3:
Set a realistic budget. Once you have your goals in place, the next step is to produce a budget that keeps you living within your means. You can ensure your budget is realistic by using your minimum income level to combat the nature of irregular income. 

Tweet 4:
Build an emergency fund.  An emergency fund is pivotal to your security as a freelancer. Clients come and go, and work can dry up quickly. Protecting against this can be the difference between a successful freelancer and one who finds themselves in debt. 

Tweet 5:
Retirement plan. Not having a contract with clients means freelancers do not get the benefits of a company pension. This means freelancers must take action and create a retirement plan themselves. A versatile portfolio with regular contributions is easy enough to set up!
