I met Ronnie when she reached out to me via email and we struck up a conversation. In this guest blog post, she shares how having a budget has helped to get her finances under control.
All in Budgeting
Relationships and Money
Having a common goal helps. We equally don’t want to be broke now or broke in retirement. We want to work less now, enjoy family life now, be prepared when things go wrong and not be so reliant on other people to create an income. These goals keep us on the straight and narrow and they are something that we openly discuss.
Tracking Your Net Worth
It is important to track your net worth. How else can you know where you are financially so that you can plan for the future? The most important thing is to understand your financial position today so you can be moving in the right direction.
Budgeting. Such Fun!
I know that the thought of doing a BUDGET is dreary but once you have one set up it literally takes five minutes a week to update. I promise!
