Sticking to a budget and savings plan is a formidable challenge for most people.
For individuals with ADHD, autism or other neurodivergent traits, it can be a nightmare of plans derailed by impulsivity and feelings of being overwhelmed with how banking and financial information is presented.
Some financial planners are now specializing in working with neurodivergent individuals those whose brains process information in a way that is not neurotypical - to create personalized financial strategies tailored to their unique needs.
