Provident is an adjective that means making provisions for the future. Our word of the day began in Latin and has evolved into English with the same pronunciation and meaning. When someone behaves in a provident fashion, they are preparing for the future in a prudent way. Growing up poor, my parents learned to be provident with their finances. They saved almost everything they earned.
