Plan ahead
The key to budgeting is to get the lay of the land first and look to the future. Calculate your weekly income and minus your essential expenses – whatever you have left over is yours to play with. Simple, right?
The smart option is to put some of this money aside, whether you’ve got a savings goal in mind or not – it’s never a bad idea to have a savings lump sum you can fall back on in an emergency.
