Family

Marital Status and
dependents, such as
children, parents or siblings,
determine whether you are
planning only for yourself or
for others as well.

Health
Your health is another defining
circumstance that will affect your
expected income needs and risk
tolerance and thus your personal
financial planning. Personal financial
planning should include some
protection against the risk of chronic
illness, accident or long term disability.

Career Choice
Career choice affects your financial
planning, specially through
educational requirements, income
potential and characteristics of the
occupation or profession your

Age
Needs, desire, values and priorities all
change over a lifetime and financial
concerns accordingly. Ideally personal
finance is a process of management
and planning that anticipates or keep

Factors Affecting
Financial Thinking
•Business cycle
•Employment rate
•Other indicators of economic health
•Currency value

Business Cycle
An economy is productive
enough to provide for the
wants of its member. Normally,
economic output increases as
population increases or as
people’s expectations grow.
ricojakezander@gmail.com
Employment rate
An economy produces not just
goods and services to satisfy its
members but also jobs, because
most people participate in the
market economy by trading their
labor and most rely on wages as
their primary source of income.
ricojakezander@gmail.com
Other Indicators of
Economic Health
Other economic indicators give us clues as
to how successful our economy is, how
well it is growing or how well positioned it
is for future growth. This includes
statistics, consumer confidence, producer
prices and so on.
ricojakezander@gmail.com
Currency Value
Stable currency value is an
indicator of a healthy economy and
critical element in financial
planning. Like anything else the
value of currency is based on its
usefulness.
ricojakezander@gmail.com
Purchasing power
A currency usefulness is
based on what it can buy
the more currency you
can buy the more useful
and valuable it is.
ricojakezander@gmail.com
Inflation
The currency is less in value
because it is less useful, that is
less can be bought with it.
Prices are rising it takes more
units of currency. To buy same
amount of goods.
ricojakezander@gmail.com
Deflation
When the value of the currency
increases, prices are falling thus
currency is worth more and buys
more.
