SmartMoney January February 2021

Welcome to our first edition for 2021. In a year
of renewal, hopefully we’ll see a world that is steadily
returning to normal, while also rapidly accelerating into
a transformed future.
Although lockdown restrictions are easing, the
coronavirus (COVID!19) pandemic will continue to
impact on our lives in many ways. Where will we be in
six months, a year, ten years from now? One thing is
certain, COVID!19 has reshaped all of our futures.
This global pandemic created overwhelming
anxiety. Many people are anxious not just about
the virus, but the resulting financial pressure and
uncertainty. Getting our financial life in order will be
a top priority for many as we enter 2021. On page
06 we focus on two key areas: goals related to being
prepared for the unexpected this year, and those
related to what you want to be different at the end
of the year.
