This entry was posted in the following categories: Guides, Home / Office
As we enter the tax season, and struggle to put together documents from last year, any suggestions for keeping financial information organized are welcomed.
At least, that’s the way I felt when I read this article by Bankrate.com’s Jenny McCune.
She suggests that, while home-entertainment centers are the rage, a home information center is what you need.
This is a place (and system) for organizing all the stray bits of paper that get tucked into the first convenient spot and then seem to take up permanent residence.
- Decide what to keep
- Decide where to keep it
- Consider going electronic
- Think long term storage and short term storage
- Simple solutions work best
The article also talks about how to sort your files and how to keep yourself focused on staying article. This is a great jumpstart to getting organized for tax season.
