The Power of The B word…Budget!

3 Day Budget Series

Hello, beautiful people from across the lands! Yes, the B word this week is budget! Miss me last week? I took a short break as my new job has begun to kick into full gear causing me to re-strategize how to be a full-time mom and employee while building my blog part-time. This journey is in real time so setbacks and mistakes are bound to happen as you read along. Any who, I am excited to share some very basic fundamental tips I’ve learned about budgeting. You cannot become debt free or financially responsible without a budget. I repeat! You CAN NOT become DEBT FREE or FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE without a BUDGET! A hard lesson I’ve had to learn repeatedly.

Once I began, I can’t believe how long I tried to function without one. Which was most of my adult life until this past May of 2018 (shameful I know). With a budget you tell your money where to go verse it just doing its own thing aimlessly. It’s time to get rid of not knowing where your money went at the end of each pay. With a budget it’s like a map with all the needed directions to your destination. In this case, that destination is debt freedom! I decided to do a budgeting series every day this week! So, every day I’ll share some fundamentals I’ve learned that is helping me along this journey. So get excited and join in on this personal finance adventure!

Here is what you can expect this week:

  • How to make a budget
  • Types of budgets (zero-based, 50 20 30 rule)
  • Actionable steps to get started

And more!
