Towards December month
What I have observed December month is different from the other months because there's lot of expenditure which exceeds our income.
What makes December a month expenditure are
1.Holidays(Christmas,Bonuses, Renovation,
Entertainment etc.
2.Competing (Clothes, Cars)
3.Touring(local, international)
4.Food exploration (Visiting Restaurants)
5.Visits (from the families,throwing dinners)
Can you be able to control some of the above
expenditures.Yes,we can if we plan.
Let's start from finances.
A.How many bank accounts do you have?
B.Who keeps those cards?
C.How do you categorized your expenditure?
D.How many part time or full time jobs do you have?
E.How big or small is your family?
A.Bank accounts
You need 3 bank accounts.
1.Normal bank account which covers the day to day expenditure like gasoline,bread, vegetables and other regular food items.This type of account
covers the daily expenditure under R200 or $12.00
2.Emergency bank account like
Tyre puncture, health conditions like headache.
window fracture,toilet leaks,pipe bursting, Dysfunction of the appliances.
Anything which is above R500 or $60.00
3.Major Projects
These take up from R10.000 or $1500 to R100.000 or $10.000 immediately but such projects are not limited they can go very far.
The question is affordability.
By December each account should have
1.Normal bank account
R15.000 or $1 500
2.Emergency bank account
R20.00 or $3.000
3.Major Projects
R100.000 and above or $10.000
B.Who keeps those cards?
Before I answer that question,are you financially
disciplined, meaning do you stick to your budget?
If no, find someone who is reliable in the family or arrange with the bank to give you a certain limit day 10% monthly.
C.Expenditure categorization
There are people who jump with their cards when there is sale.When the sale comes,it must be within your plans.
D.Number of Jobs

E.Big/small is your family
The size of the family determines the expenditure.
