PAYDAY HAS ARRIVED!
I have never been much good at budgeting. A month seems an infinite amount of time to go without fresh income. I always live outside my means, keeping up with the Joneses. This is despite earning over double now what I was earning two years ago. It always seems that no matter how much you earn, there is never enough left for life’s “luxuries”. Two years ago I was renting, now I have a mortgage to pay (on my own). I use my car more for work, I socialise more. Unfortunately nowadays, money is status and power.
