"Sorted" Financial Planning Tools
Sorted is a great New Zealand government-financed website on money management. It's well-designed, full of resources and it's not trying to sell anything. Sorted is a good source of independent financial advice – except about Canadian student loans, obviously!
Since student loans in New Zealand are totally different from Canada's, Student Finance 101 doesn't link to Sorted's student content. It's confusing enough just learning our own system. If you want to read it anyway, go ahead, explore their site.
But when it comes to your daily finances - and reaching your financial goals - we recommend the excellent Sorted tools linked below.
