Trick yourself into saving!




We’ve all been there before—it’s the 14th or the 29th of the month, the day before payday and all we have to show for ourselves is about fifty bucks in our wallet, and nothing else in the bank.  It’s enough to make you wonder if you’re working just to make you survive going to work. 

Put an end to this butas na bulsa syndrome by tricking yourself into saving, regardless of your salary pay scale. Essential household expenses like rent, utilities, and groceries are definitely necessary, but anything outside of this is often unnecessary. And these expenses—such as going out and shopping too often—though deceptively minimal at first, can all add up to a huge amount in the long run.

People often resort to budgeting after they've already been dealing with expenses and income in a back-of-the-envelope kind of way.
