With less than two weeks left until Christmas, the holiday season is upon us! For those prepared folks, they already have their presents wrapped and waiting in a closet somewhere. For the rest of the population, we’re still wrapping our heads around the fact that it’s December, let alone that Christmas is just around the corner. Soon everyone’s homes will be in a tizzy: bake the cookies, clean the guest room, buy the gifts, wrap the gifts, decorate the house – the list just never ends. As exciting as the holiday season is, it can also be very overwhelming.

Along with the chores and preparation of the holiday season often comes a pile of credit card debt. When you leave your holiday shopping to the last minute, you’re unable to compare prices, find sale items and choose presents that you truly think your loved ones would enjoy. As a result, you’re under pressure to purchase the first thing you see – even if it isn’t the most ideal or affordable gift. 

Alternatively, perhaps you planned to make some holiday gifts this year but did not find the time; this also adds to your December budget as you race to the store to buy a replacement. These tendencies often lead to shoppers spending more than they intended on their gifts, let alone sticking to any kind of budget. Instead of enjoying your holiday season with family, friends and loved ones, you’re stressing about how much money you spent and how you’re going to manage to pay it all back.

But, what if there was a way to enjoy a debt-free holiday season, where you could go home, kick up your feet and sip away on a tasty beverage without a care in the world? What if you came home from holiday shopping this week with extra cash in your pocket and all of your gifts already purchased? There is a way to truly enjoy the holiday season without the words ‘money’ and ‘debt’ stressing you out around the Christmas tree. The answer? ATB Prosper.

In line with ATB’s purpose, ATB Prosper is a made-in-Alberta digital investment experience that aims to help you achieve your goals and make your aspirations closer.

What if I don’t know how to make an investment portfolio?” 

No sweat!

ATB Prosper will recommend an investment portfolio best suited to you and your goals. You can set up your portfolio, make contributions as small as $25, and check progress towards your goals without having to speak to anyone. However, a real, live investment advisor is always available if you need some personalized support.
