If you’re like most people, you probably cringe (or maybe even cry), when you hear the word budget.
Practically my whole life, I thought of a budget as something for people that didn’t have any money.
“I’m going to be a doctor”, I thought to myself. “Who needs a budget, with all the money I’ll be rolling around in?!” Ha. Ha. Oh, Shannon…
This is probably why I have over half a million dollars in student loan debt.
Don’t be like broke Dr. Shannon. Learn from my mistakes instead!
I now understand that it’s actually all people that need a budget, especially the wealthy (or people that wish to someday be wealthy!)
A budget is actually permission to spend. It doesn’t need to feel like a huge restriction on your life.
If you have a budget, you know exactly where your money is going each month.
This has the opposite effect of restraining, and is instead quite freeing!
The first time I sat down with my husband and did a real budget, we actually felt like we had more money!
We realized where we had been wasting money, and found places that we could easily cut back on our spending.
The budget even allowed for fun money, clothing money, and eating out. I
Instead of feeling guilty about spending money on these things, we felt great about it because it was in the budget, and we knew we could afford it.
