My Top 5 Budgeting Tips
Let's be honest. Summer can be chaotic with everything going on, so I put together 5 ways to stay on budget:
-
Calculate how much summer activities will be and put them into the budget.
-
Automate bills/payments so that there is less physical work to do.
-
Automate your savings goals and schedule them for the beginning of the month. It is never a good idea to wait until the end of the month to save. That money will be gone!
-
Break down your long-term goals into just 3-month pieces. Think about where you need to be financially in 3 months. That helps you have an end in sight.
-
Enjoy yourself. Too many people make the mistake of thinking they can’t have fun and budget at the same time. Put fun/entertainment in your budget regularly and intentionally.
