Money, Honey

Let’s talk money, honey.
This is an intense subject because not a lot of people like to talk about money. People feel weird about it. I think it is really important. Look, ultimately it is a free world, and you do what you want. I have read my share of personal finance books and I have learned to apply a little of everything to my life, I am happy with my little system. It works for me. Last thing I want to do is shove a theory or a formula down your throat like a delicious vegan-gluten free pastry. So just hang on, I promise you it’s a cute method.

I want to start with the obvious, pay your fucking bills! You with me? Good. 
Now that I cleared the air, lets get down to the fun stuff. Spend and save money. I told you it was cute, it’s short, simple, and no boring restraints. I am a true believer in having the ability to a high quality of life at any income level. The key to that comes from the cutie Marie Kondo. Keep what makes you happy, and refuse what doesn’t spark joy. You can do this with your financials. After keeping an eye on your basic needs to live, look at where you want to spend your money, and spend it good. You are making yourself happy, not others. 

I took this formula from a really good book called, “I Will Teach You to Be Rich” by Ramit Sethi.
He talks about covering your basis, save a little through automated transfers, and spend guilt free. This book is so funny, informative and easy to apply.

Spending formula on a monthly basis:

50%-Living Expenses; rent, groceries, utilities, insurance…
30%-Saving; IRA, 401K, Stocks, Bonds, and even a downpayment for a home. 
20%-Guilt Free Spending; shoes, lattes, makeup, vacations, cars…

You work hard for your money, splurge, but don’t forget to cover your basis.
In what do you splurge?
