    Make a budget, each month.

    Write down your expected expenses. Keep it simple. Use paper and a calculator.

    Rewrite the list, in order of priority, to you.

    I’ve met so many people who are scared to do this, yet would be pleased if they did.

      And compare your expected expenses to your actual expenses. Those occasional small things here and there can add up.
