It’s Sunday, which means...It’s recap time!
The theme for this week was: Protecting yourself and your wallet online. I probably don’t need to convince you too much of how important it is, yet most of us are pretty lax in our cybersecurity protection practices.
Your odds of being a victim to identity theft is 1 in 15...per year! So the odds are very high that you will get hacked at some point over your lifetime.
A recent study by the Department of Justice found that the average cost of identity theft like unauthorized credit card use and the stealing of your personal information averaged $1,343 per person. But beyond that, there is also the negative impact on your credit scores and the headaches of fixing the problems stemming from stolen information like your social security number.
So this week, I shared with you 5 quick and easy ways to help you keep your your wallet and your identity secure online.
My hope is that you will implement at least a couple of these tips, if you haven’t already tightened up your online security.
Here’s what we covered this week:

Budgeting is always important, but it’s especially important as you approach retirement, so you can better understand where your money is going and how your expenses will change in retirement. So next week, I’m going to share with you some budgeting tips which will not restrict you, but instead, give you more freedom as you transition into retirement.
That’s it for this week! Thanks for listening.
My name is Ashley Micciche and this is the “One Minute Retirement Tip”.
