SMART (HOME) BUDGETING
Creating a budget can help you save money and plan for the future. Calculate your net monthly pay (take home pay after taxes and deductions). Then subtract your monthly expenses: fixed (scheduled expenses, e.g., rent, mortgage/car payment, taxes, insurance), flexible (discretionary, e.g., entertainment), and variable (regular but changeable, e.g., credit cards and utilities).
