HI Yin! I'm not perfect by a long shot:>
I would get budget information here http://freebies.about.com/cs/aboutsites/a/frugal.htm?terms=frugal
and here http://credit.about.com/index.htm?terms=credit
Their forums are invaluable.It's a good question to ask yourself (how do you budget) every once in while, because things change. It's easy to get into a rut.
The more I save the more I can spend on family related items and drawing supplies. I would say buying a house, duplex or condo is the best way to budget, what you spend comes back to you, plus there are tax benefits in the US. My sister is a financial planner, and she is a Sag with Taurus moon and Taurus midheaven. I have found Sags make great financial planners unlike what you read about Sags and money, they can save and are goal oriented. I tend to save without a goal and give up. Goals are key. Natasha

Invaluable sites! And since I'm out of school for the summer there will be a lot of time for reading!
Thank you so much, Natasha!
BTW Sag-Taurus combo is the best for business partners. I can imagine what is like to have them both in your horoscope. Your sister is very lucky 
Have fun in Canada!------------------

i have a few threads to respond to i guess. i did exit away for a while. and i've determined that it's better for me not to post information here that's too personal. that said, i've felt compelled to post here (in ll) lately due to some good energy calling. love's flowing strong....  IP: Logged |

Budgeting money whats that? No such thing in my world, Its just spend, spend, spend thankfully I don't have any debt, and don't haver any credit cards if I had a credit card I would be in debt. Thats why its safer if I don't have one!!! IP: Logged |

I used to use envelopes for each area and place what I'd think will cover each area - food, bills, entertainment etc. However, I always cheated and just spent whatever. I find the best way to save now, is to not spend. I still do spend, but I'm getting married soon so it's hard to save. But if you don't spend, you can just watch it grow, and it feels kinda nice Plus, we're trying to save a deposit for a house. They're are very expensive though, so we're not really rushing. When we decide we will hunt around, and then some the kids Then I will be able to talk about budgeting...Dean. IP: Logged |

I'm in college right now so my primary source of income whould be mom and dad.Almost all my school expenses are covered by my parents for the exception of the smaller expenses, which i cover myself. Like clothes,entertainment,and etcera. I work part-time on the weekends, to keep things in the green's instead of the red's. My mom pretty much balances everyone's budget in my family, she does my sister's my dad's and to an extent my budget. IP: Logged |
