Default Re: Budgeting for personal entertainment

The challenge of deciding how much we can afford to spend on entertainment is very difficult unless we have a simple division in our budget between the money we have already commited to bill paying and the money we have available for Day-To-Day living.

One of the incredible discoveries of Personality Budgeting was that there are only three places your money can go...


We can pay bills that we have committed to

We can save money for tomorrow
or

We can have money for Day-To-Day living


The banking triangle (copyright) shows this very simply



The exciting part of all this is that once we have separated out our bills and savings, everything else can be moved around at will.

All of a sudden we can see how much money we have available and we can decide if we want to spend it on entertainment, food etc.

Enjoy Your Money
