The summer has just flown by and September is now here. Where has the time gone? It has been a very rough summer for us. Hubby was laid off in late June and that sent panic throughout my entire brain. I felt like that robot on the old television show, Lost in Space, that goes running around in circles yelling, "Danger, Will Robinson!" That's what I wanted to do....go around with my budget book yelling, "Danger! No Money!"
I have gotten lax in the past few years and have strayed away from the budget system that I really like: The Envelope Budgeting system. I'm not hawking anyone's particular product, but when it comes to budgeting, Dave Ramsey's envelope system is the absolute easiest and best system out there. I am going to implement that system again and hopefully, if I am able to stick with it, I will have positive results.
What system do you use to budget your money??

Still sending happy thoughts and a prayer your way.
ReplyDeleteI use an odd way of billing but it works for me. I have the budget set for every Friday. You know, break down the house payment by 4 and whichever bill needs to be paid. And then whatever is left I take and hide in the back of the checkbook. So when I am done with the bills we have $.01 left. Out of site, out of mind sort of thing. I just keep a tally in the back of the checkbook, sort of like an easy to get to savings account.
Hey there! That is a really good idea!! :)
