Budgeting
Benefits of using a budget
- Less stress: Knowing how much money is going in and out of your bank account can help ensure you are not spending money you do not have.
- Prepared for emergencies: Unexpected expenses seem to come at the worst times but maintaining a budget can help cover situations like car troubles and job loss.
- Achieve financial goals: Budgets ensure you have enough for your everyday spending and longer-term goals.
- Better credit score: Those with a set budget can plan on-time debt payments each month, which will cause their credit score to rise over time.
