Take
a look at the tips we've got
for you about budgeting money!
Make
a Budget that Fits You
A
budget is like a piece of clothing
that you design for yourself: The
better it fits, the more comfortable
you
are, and the better you look!!!
Don't
Forget to Save
Remember
to include SAVINGS in your budget.
Balance Your Budget
Try
to keep your budget balanced so that
your Income = Expenses + Savings.
Don't
Spend More than You Have
When
paying your bills, write checks only
for the amount of money you have in
your checking account.
Check
your Balance Before Writing Checks
Sometimes
it takes a few days for your money
(especially paychecks and other checks
that you have deposited) to
be available in your account. Make
sure you check your
available balance before writing
checks. You can
do this at the ATM or on-line if you
have on-line banking.
