HOW TO CREATE A PERSONAL BUDGET THAT WORKS

HOW TO CREATE A PERSONAL BUDGET THAT WORKS

 

All of us are usually interested
in our country’s budget, with most of us tuning on the TV to listen to the
President read the budget every year. Few of us, however, take time out to
prepare and present our own personal budget, whether to ourselves or to our
families. Drawing up a personal budget, which is essentially how you plan to
spend your money, is an essential requirement to effectively manage your
financial health.
Here
are some tips on drawing up a personal budget:
  1. Make up your mind
This is usually the difficult
part. The decision to draw up a budget is not an easy one, so make up your mind
that you are going to create a budget. If you are married, then you will also
need to convince your spouse on your decision to draw up a family budget. Once
decided, the next task will be to determine if it is going to be a
monthly, quarterly, half yearly or annual budget.
  1. Determine your total income
For a salaried worker, this is
easy. But for self employed individuals, it may mean clearly distinguishing
what is personal expense and what is business expense. For self employed
people, it also means that they must have predetermined what is their salary
from the business they run.
  1. Determine your expense
The next step in creating a
budget is to determine your personal expenses. This should cover all your
recurrent and non-recurrent expenses. You should also make provision for
compulsory expenditures like government levies as well as essential expenses like
children school fees and pocket money, if you have any. Make it simple by
breaking all your expenses into compulsory, essential and optional. Compulsory
is legally binding expenses which you must pay or else you may end up in
prison. Essential, are expenses like school fees, electricity bills, and car
maintenance or transportation costs, feeding among others. Optional could be
entertainment, holidays among others.  Also make some provision for
emergency funds.
  1. Implement
You require a high level of discipline to
effectively implement your budget. If you are a married person, you also need
the total buy-in of your spouse to ensure that you do not abandon the budget
soon after drawing it up. However, you can also be flexible in implementing
your budget. You can negotiate items on your optional list and even cut down on
your essential list where for example; you may have placed “subscription to
cable TV,” if you find that your finances are on shaky ground and you can no longer
afford the subscription.
