The Financial Readiness Checklist (2026): 25 Questions to Answer Before Any Major Money Decision Most financial mistakes don't happen because people are careless. They happen because important questions were never asked. Should you buy the house now? Can you actually afford that new car? Is it the right time to leave your job?
