Bumps in the Trump rally? Market making you nervous? Gain more control over your finances.
Maybe you've been riding that bull for eight years and feel like it might be getting tired. Maybe you're getting a little jumpy yourself, with all that money in stocks and now the Trump-rally turbulence.
You could use this slightly queasy moment to improve your finances without getting anywhere near the big, (currently) booming equity market.
We asked certified financial planners for practical ways people could use any excess cash to get in better financial shape. Their suggestions may not be as measurable as a stock index fund's ups and downs, but they offer some real payoffs.
