Not necessarily. You can have a budget at any income level. It just might mean facing the fact that your expenses are higher than your income. No one says a budget can't show you how much your going into debt instead of how much your saving. My partner was there through his college. It's just depressing so you are less likely to do it. I don't know if I would stick to it.

But I think knowing where your money is going and where it is coming from is a key step in motivating yourself to make a change... either to fight for other opportunities or to change spending habits. And it also gives you visibility into what differences it makes on a weekly or monthly or yearly basis.

Envelope style budgeting:)

I'm going to reply to your comment... But check out the philosophy of You Need A Budget. One of their keystones is roll with the punches. If you go on a spending spree, you just acknowledge it, cover those categories with money from somewhere else (or have it be on a credit card where it'll warn you youre going into debt).

Jumpsuits make bathrooming more complicated. I absolutely love dresses for this reason 😁 and you can pair them with just about any style of shoes from sandals to sneakers to boots to strappy heels!

... what were your goals?

I need to check for some wedding communities, churning/YNAB/personal finance things, and double check my reddit subscriptions when I get a chance. I'll get back to this :)

Yeah - we set up chores on a Google task list (which is what we already use). I tried to make each room its own thing (and only have 1-2 tasks per room). He also uses a white board so I add things there too. Good note of not adding it all at once.

Living together is super challenging. (It's overall going well. Im just grumpy atm.) I hope that medication and/or therapy will help make things easier for him.

My fiance was diagnosed recently but we didn't have insurance to get started with treatment. Just the diagnosis has helped him figure out what parts of him aren't just "not trying hard enough". But to be honest, I'm really heartened when you talk about a clean house because I need that for my own anxiety and it takes him so much effort that it's hard to ask it of him.

Hi fellow discuss.online person!

I'm finding it has zero issues out here in Utah too. Just hoping it grows some additional communities outside of nerf for my local feed 😂

I used Libby. (Just go grab a local library card and see if you can dig up any old library cards from anywhere else you've lived... You can have multiple libraries linked.) Also great for audiobooks.

Thank you fellow human!

Thanks - it's easier behind a screen. Am I going to go off the deep end if I try to start a community all about rabbits? Reddit was my favorite place to share rabbit photos with the knowledge that I wasn't forcing them on anyone.
