The Actors Fund Podcast Series Sixth Video
The sixth installment in The Actors Fund Podcast Series discusses how to organize your income as part of an overall cash flow plan. (If you have not already, please view Financial Wellness Part 1: Organizing Expenses prior to watching Part 2: Organizing Income). This eight minute video covers some of the challenges to balancing an artists? variable income and expenses and also touches briefly on important tax issues. A performing artist?s financial life is complex, so it?s easy to get confused when trying to organize your money. This podcast will help you distinguish between regular and irregular income and determine what this means for building yourself a financial cushion, saving for periodic expenses and investing for your future. The overall goal of the Financial Wellness series? Establishing a stable method of managing your finances!
