My Monthly Budget on $2,500 Income

My Monthly Budget on $2,500 Income

The 50/30/20 rule in real numbers:

NEEDS (50% = $1,250)
- Rent/Housing: $750
- Utilities: $150
- Groceries: $250
- Transport: $100

WANTS (30% = $750)
- Eating out: $100
- Entertainment: $75
- Shopping: $100
- Fun money: $50

SAVINGS (20% = $500)
- Emergency fund: $200
- Retirement: $150
- Vacation fund: $100

The secret is not earning more. It is knowing where every dollar goes.

wish i could get rent that low lol where i am it's like $1300 for a shoebox. this is solid though, the breakdown really helps me see i'm blowing way too much on takeout. do you actually stick to this every month or is it more of a goal?
