One of the things my wife and I did when we
were young is save. Saving money for
unexpected emergencies is difficult when your
young. But what we did was.....
Every time I got paid we only input a certain
amount. Lets say my check was
$592. We would enter an
amount of $550
in the front of our checkbook and deposit the
remaining $42
in the back of the checkbook under the title
"secret savings".
Doing this kept our cash easily accessible.
Allowed us automatic overdraft protection.
Budgeting off the same amount was easier.
Just a tip, try it and see where you sit 6
months from now!
