Tips on budgeting

Hi

Budgeting Tip 1: If the insurance, however, is billed less often than monthly, the total annual amount would be divided by 12, and that number would be listed in the Impound Budget For Non-Monthly Expenses. Don't forget to list the month it's due to be paid. This 'Impound' section is a powerful and unique tool to save monthly for all your annual expenses and avoid those nasty surprises.
Budgeting Tip 2: Include everything you regularly pay cash for in the Cash Budget-Monthly section.
Budgeting Tip 3: After you total everything, you may be surprised to discover your expenses are larger than your income. This is normal, I'm sad to say. The amount your expenses exceed your income is the amount you add to your credit cards and other consumer credit balances every month. Note: When I did this the first time I discovered I was spending $ 250 more than my income each month. If your income is larger than your expenses, the difference is the amount you can add to savings, etc.

Thanks
