Budget has negative connotations. I personally hate budgeting. I more have a flexible spending account. I know we can spend $2k/month on stuff. Either eating out, going out, cooking, travel, etc.
I'm also terrible at budgeting in general. My DH REFUSES to live to a budget. If he wants something he wants it NOW. No waiting, give him the money, because he's so cheap usually that he knows he should have the money NOW. Make it happen.
So to us we have to do an annual budget and I have to tweak and make sure we spend what we can.
