Not really on a budget, but I definitely only purchase things I could afford & pay the bills.

That sounds like a good plan. You never want to owe more than you have.

@infatuatedbby Do you left anything for savings? There would be always unexpected bills.

It sounds like you have the right idea. It is important for now and the future.

@mrki444 That is so true. Some people learn through advice and some learn the hard way.

@MsBooklover If you don't control your income and outcome, you can end up in serious debt and I don't want do that.

I'm terrible at budgeting and yeah I don't have a budget but I never complained of not having money. I just don't buy things I can't afford or I don't use my credit card without actually paying them.

@MsBooklover Absolutely, because that would mean you couldn't pay for it.

That is a good start. Not buying things you cannot afford is important.

People should have a budget for all expenses. We never run out of money. Money is enough in our house

Everyone is on a budget, I guess. Even the rich ones. They also have their limit. This 2018, I vow myself to be thrifty as much as possible since I will do my best to get back in school. A then co-worker did managed to save as much as she can since she's studying as well. I hope I can make it.

I always set a budget intended for the week so I never ran out of money at the end of the month. =)
