Hello luvies,
As I was browsing through my phone I came across a screenshot that I got from Pesosense. It's a formula that will help us budget our monthly income and how to save money and alot some for other things that may incur in the future.
Here is the formula:
Income - 20% = Amount to be spent.
List of Items that needed budget:
Emergency fund
Savings
Housebills
Credit Card
Food
Allowance - Hubbs, Mine and child
College Fund
Medical/Dental
Retirement
Recreation
Personal
Vacation
School Tuition Fee + Service
ETC.
My thoughts: For me it's not that realistic because we have a lot of expenses. And the expenses is sometimes more than r income that's why I always have a negative balance. But I realize, I have to save not just for the rainy days but for our retirement. We are not getting any younger and I have to start in anyway I can. Even a single centavo count. And through this we won't have to think too much about the future. I also needed some part time job or sideline to somehow add up to our income.
I'll try to start today. I will give you an update in a months time. I will cross fingers. I hope I have something left for the piggy bank.
What about you?? What kind of formula do you have to save?
