2021 개인 경제 달력 (Charles Schwab)

Personal Finance Calendar for 2021

개인 재정에 대해 생각하는 것보다 연간 휴가를 계획하는 데 더 많은 시간을 소비합니까? 그리고 마침내 자신의 재정에 대해 생각하게되었을 때 보통 마지막 순간까지 기다리게됩니까? 그렇다면 당신은 혼자가 아닙니다. 많은 사람들이 재정 계획을 미루거나 아예 피합니다. Schwab에서는 개인 재무 계획을 일회성 이벤트가 아닌 지속적인 평생 프로세스로 간주합니다. 재정 계획에 대해 적극적으로 대처하고이를 달성 가능한 소규모 작업으로 나누면 훨씬 덜 부담스럽지 않으며 시간이 지남에 따라 귀하와 사랑하는 사람들에게 막대한 배당금을 지급 할 수 있습니다. 다음 개인 재무 캘린더는 시작하는 데 도움이 될 것입니다.

 

1월

2021 년에 재정적으로 적합하도록 결심하십시오.

• 부채를 관리하십시오.
  • 고가의 공제 불가능한 신용 카드를 모두 지불하는 것으로 시작한 다음, 아직 지불하지 않았다면 3 ~ 6 개월의 비용에 해당하는 비상 자금을 마련하십시오.
  • 현금 흐름표 (전년도 소득에서 비용을 뺀 값) 및 개인 순자산 명세서를 작성 (또는 업데이트)합니다. 포트폴리오를 점검하고 자산 조합이 여전히 시간 범위 및 위험 허용 범위와 일치하는지 확인하십시오
  • (Schwab 클라이언트는 로그인하여이를 위해 포트폴리오 점검 도구를 사용할 수 있습니다). 시장 변화는 투자가 가치를 얻고 잃을 때 전체 포트폴리오에서 더 크거나 더 작은 부분이되기 때문에 포트폴리오가 원래 목표 자산 할당에서 벗어나게 할 수 있습니다. 포트폴리오를 선택한 자산 배분으로 다시 균형을 맞출 수있는 좋은시기입니다.
  • 은퇴하고 포트폴리오에서 그림을 그리는 경우 향후 12 개월 동안 포트폴리오 재조정과 현금 흐름 계획을 결합 할 수 있습니다.
• 직장 은퇴 계획에 얼마나 기여하고 있는지 다시 확인하십시오. 최소한, 가능한 고용주 일치를 최대한 활용할 수 있도록 충분히 기여하도록 노력하십시오.
• 50 세 이상 (또는 올해 50 세가 될 예정) 인 경우 추가 추격 기부를 고려하십시오 (2021 년 최대 $ 6,500). 정규 급여 원천 징수를 통해 충분한 소득세를 납부하지 않은 경우 1 월 15 일까지 4 분기 예상 소득세 납부를 제출하십시오.
• (연중 지불해야하는 기타 연방 세금 항목은 IRS 세금 달력을 참조하십시오). 연간 세금 양식 1099, 1098 및 W-2는 늦어도 1 월 31 일 (약 1099 년의 경우 2 월 15 일)까지 우편으로 발송해야합니다.
• 고용주가 귀하에게 스톡 옵션, 제한 재고 단위 (RSU) 또는 가득한 제한 재고 보상을 부여한 경우이를 처리하는 방법을 결정해야합니다. 세금 처리는 각각에 대해 약간 씩 다르므로 옵션을 행사하거나 주식을 판매하기 전에 영향을 이해해야합니다.

2월

• 보험 정책 (재산 및 사상자, 책임, 건강, 장애, 생명)을 확인하여 잘못된 종류의 보장에 대해 너무 많은 비용을 지불하고 있지 않은지 확인하십시오.
• 특정 뮤추얼 펀드는 1 월 말에 귀하의 초기 양식 1099가 귀하에게 우편으로 발송 된 후 분배 정보를 다시 작성할 수 있습니다. 일반적이지는 않지만 이러한 수정이 필요한 경우 수정 된 1099가 일반적으로 2 월에 우편으로 발송됩니다. Schwab 고객은 schwab.com에서 세금 도구 및 리소스에 액세스 할 수 있습니다.

Personal Finance Calendar for 2021 | Charles Schwab

Do you spend more time planning your annual vacation than you do thinking about your personal finances? And when you finally do get around to thinking about your finances, do you usually end up waiting until the last minute? If so, you're not alone. A lot of people put off financial planning or avoid it altogether.

At Schwab, we view personal financial planning as an ongoing, lifelong process, not a one-time event. When you’re proactive about your financial planning and break it into small, achievable tasks, it’s a lot less daunting—and it can pay huge dividends to you and your loved ones over time. The following personal finance calendar should help you get started.

January

• Resolve to make yourself financially fit in 2021:
  • Manage your debt. Start by paying off all of your high-cost, non-deductible credit cards, and then establish an emergency fund equal to three to six months of expenses, if you haven't already.
  • Create (or update) your cash flow statement (prior year income minus expenses) and statement of personal net worth.
  • Give your portfolio a checkup, and make sure its mix of assets still matches your time horizon and risk tolerance (Schwab clients can log in and use the Portfolio Checkup tool for this). Market changes can cause your portfolio to drift away from its original target asset allocation, because as investments gain and lose value they become a larger or smaller part of your overall portfolio. This may be a good time to rebalance your portfolio back to your chosen asset allocation.
  • If you're retired and drawing from your portfolio, you can combine your portfolio rebalancing with your cash-flow planning for the next 12 months.
• Double-check how much you’re contributing to your workplace retirement plan. At the very least, try to contribute enough to take full advantage of any available employer match. If you're at least 50 years old (or will turn 50 this year), consider making additional catch-up contributions (up to $6,500 in 2021).
• If you don't pay enough income tax through regular payroll withholding, file your fourth-quarter estimated income tax payment by January 15. (See the IRS Tax Calendar for other federal tax items due throughout the year).
• Any annual tax forms 1099, 1098 and W-2 should be mailed to you no later than January 31 (February 15 for some 1099s).
• If your employer has granted you stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs) or restricted stock awards that are vesting, you’ll need to decide how to handle them. Tax treatment is slightly different for each one, so make sure you understand the impact before exercising options or selling shares.

February

• Check your insurance policies (property and casualty, liability, health, disability, life) to be sure you're not paying too much for the wrong kind of coverage.
• Certain mutual funds could restate their distribution information after your initial Form 1099 is mailed to you at the end of January. Though not common, when such fixes are necessary a corrected 1099 is usually mailed sometime in February. Schwab clients can access tax tools and resources on schwab.com.

March

• If you receive an annual bonus from your employer, use it thoughtfully to increase its potential benefit. It’s tempting to splurge, but consider using a bonus to pay down debt, contribute to your retirement plan, or build an emergency fund. 
• Check your credit report. You’re entitled to a free copy of your credit report every 12 months from each of the three nationwide credit reporting agencies.

April

• File your income tax return by April 15. If you're requesting an automatic six-month extension, you still need to pay any taxes due by April 15.
• April 15 is also the last day to make a contribution to your IRA or Coverdell Education Savings Account for the prior year.
• If applicable, first-quarter estimated income tax payments are due by April 15.

May

• Create (or update) an inventory of your home and personal property for insurance or estate planning. Use a smartphone or video camera to make a record of your valuable possessions and then store the video in a secure, remote location.
• Review your estate plan.

June

• Perform a mid-year review of your finances to be sure you're on track:
  • Double check your actual year-to-date income and expenses against your cash flow projections.
  • Are you on track with your retirement contributions and other savings?
  • Run a projection of your income taxes to be sure you are not paying too much or too little income tax (either through withholding or quarterly payments).
• If applicable, second-quarter estimated income tax payments are due by June 15.

July

• Build or refresh your money skills. Add at least one good book on personal finance or investing to your summer reading list.  

August

• Compare what you actually spent on vacation to the amount you projected in your annual cash flow plan. Start thinking about your holiday budget.
• As the kids or grandkids get ready for school, think about establishing or contributing to a Coverdell Education Savings Account and/or 529 College Savings Plan on their behalf.

September

• If applicable, third-quarter estimated income tax payments are due by September 15.

• If you want to establish a SIMPLE IRA this year for your small business, the account must be opened by October 1.

October

• If you have children heading to college next year, keep in mind that the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) window opens on October 1. It’s best to complete the FAFSA as early as possible, because states and colleges use it to award their own grants, scholarships and loans, and that aid is limited.
• File your income tax return by October 15 if you requested a six-month extension back in April.
• Run a projection of your current-year income tax liability to get a head start on your year-end tax planning.
• As open enrollment season rolls around at work, take the time to review your health insurance coverage and other employer benefits.

November

• Don't charge more for holiday gifts than you can comfortably pay for in full when the January credit card statements come around.
• Take time to give thanks for another year of financial success. Review your charitable giving program and consider making tax-deductible gifts to charity or to a donor advised fund account before the end of the year.

December

• If you have investments that have lost value during the year, consider tax-loss harvesting to potentially lower your tax liability and better position your portfolio going forward.
• If you turned 70½ in 2019 or earlier, don't forget to take the 2021 annual required minimum distribution (RMD) from your IRA or 401(k) by December 31. Learn more about when and how to take RMDs.
• If you want to establish an individual 401(k) or other qualified retirement plan this year for your small business, the account must be opened by December 31.
• Get your annual Social Security Statement. Compare your earnings record against your old tax returns for accuracy.
