In this episode, Emily explains how to live on time with your finances. Living on time means maintaining financial margin in your life to be able to absorb unexpected occurrences in your income or spending. When you're behind in your finances, your income is going out the door right after you receive it, you have balances on your credit cards that you can't pay off until your next paycheck comes, and/or you are unprepared for the next manual tax payment that is required of you. This may be true even if you're not experiencing financial consequences such as interest payments on debt. The good news is that it's very simple, though not necessarily easy, to transition to living on time once you know what it means.
