Miss USA’s Three Top Tips for Saving Money
Until last week, Erin Brady was a Financial Accountant for Prudential Retirement in Hartford, CT. Now, she’s Miss USA 2013 and talking numbers with Talking Numbers.
While Erin’s new schedule means she won’t be able to go back to work any time soon, she knows a lot about personal finance. So, we asked this aspiring MBA to tell us her three top tips for saving money.
Miss USA’s Three Top Tips for Saving Money:
Tip #1: Always pay yourself.
Erin says: “My dad always told me from Day 1 that no matter how many bills I have, every time I get paid, always put something away. Whether $20 or $100 every week, make sure you pay yourself first because you never know when you’re going to be in a predicament where you’re going to need money. I’ve always learned that no matter how much in bills I have, I put money away for myself.”
Tip #2: Start saving ASAP.
Erin says: “Open up a Roth IRA or some kind of a retirement plan ASAP. As soon as I got out of high school, I opened up a Roth IRA. I think a lot of kids my age are not educated on it. They don’t realize the importance of saving now because you’re going to be working forever. Who knows when Social Security’s going to run out? You’re going to make sure to be secure when you retire. Definitely start putting away now for retirement.”
Tip #3: Pay your debts first.
Erin says: “Obviously, like everyone else my age, I have student loans. I think it’s really important that any extra money you have to put towards your debts because [paying the minimum due] is like pouring water in a bucket with a hole in the bottom – you’re never going to pay it off. You’re always going to have something due to somebody else and you’re paying interest. Try to pay everything off as early as you can before you’re just paying interest to everybody else. Make sure you pay off your debts – credit cards, school loans, car loans – you don’t want to be in the hole forever!”

Miss Fl USA Makes The Headlines @ The Miami Herald
BY CORY NIGHTINGALE
CNIGHTINGALE@MIAMIHERALD.COm
Brittany Oldehoff’s beauty shined through among a record 71 contestants in the Miss Florida USA Pageant on Saturday night at Bailey Concert Hall in Davie.
The 24-year-old, who was born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, captured the top prize in the pageant that was broadcast live on WPLG-Local 10.
She will now represent Florida in the Miss USA Pageant. (The date and location of the Miss USA Pageant have yet to be announced.)
The 5-foot-11 model, with light brown hair and green-blue eyes, admitted to being nervous as she braced for the announcement of the winner’s name, and she was overcome with emotion when the moment of decision arrived and she had been chosen.
Proudly wearing the winner’s crown, carrying the bouquet of flowers and waving to the cheering crowd, Oldehoff fought back tears as she walked the stage in her aquamarine evening gown.
The pageant consisted of an interview with the contestants, as well as swimsuit and evening gown competitions. The swimsuit portion was meant to highlight the contestants’ physical fitness.
Miss USA systems don’t incorporate a talent portion.
Oldehoff, who attended Cardinal Gibbons High and majored in criminal justice at Florida Atlantic University, has taken her career global, as she continues to work for Next Model Management in Miami, Major Model Management in New York and Leni’s Models in London.
Oldehoff, known for her appearances in 2009 as a model on the fashion reality TV shows Project Runway and Models of the Runway, began modeling at age 10 and was signed to a Miami agency at 17.
She has walked in runway shows for several top fashion designers, including Michael Kors, Zac Posen, Oscar de La Renta, Chloe, Armani and Chanel.
Oldehoff has been the face for Conair hair as its Volume Boost Dryer model and has been on numerous magazine covers, including GQ South Africa.
