Expenses: How Much Do You Spend?
The best way to keep track of your expenses is to write down EVERYTHING you buy, even if something is just 50 cents or a dollar.

Sticking to Your Budget
To give you an idea of how much money you spend and make, record your income and expenses for an entire month. This will give you a base from which you can estimate your monthly expenses.
From this base, plan out what you will spend the following month. Estimate any major expenses, emergencies, seasonal expenses, debts and items such as rent/mortgage and other monthly bills. In doing so, you have created a budget for yourself.

Questions to Ask Yourself…
If you feel yourself wanting to give in and straying away from your budget ask yourself 3 questions: Will this purchase help me reach my
financial goals? Is this purchase listed on my budget? What will I have to give up if I spend my
money on this purchase?

Common Money Mistakes
![Page 17: UK 101 Money Management. Overview What is a Budget SMART Goals Income Received Expenses spent Sticking to Your Budget Saving $$$$ Tips Common](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649e8d5503460f94b90d68/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Common Money Mistakes
Not saving enough money. Ask yourself what you would do if your car broke down or you lost your part-time job?
Living on the financial edge. Many people have to borrow money when a financial crisis occurs. Motivate yourself to spend less and save the difference for emergencies and future financial goals. When you have a goal, spending less doesn’t seem like
deprivation but more like moving toward your goal—and that is very satisfying.

Common Money Mistakes Continued
Spending on impulse. Before you buy something, ask yourself if you really need the item or can get along with something that you already own or could borrow, rent, or buy used. For costlier items, do
research and compare at least three vendors to make sure you’re getting the best value.

Credit: What is it?
Credit is a service that lets you buy now and pay later.
You use someone else’s money to buy something you want to use now.
Credit means using your money from future paychecks to pay for something you buy now.
![Page 21: UK 101 Money Management. Overview What is a Budget SMART Goals Income Received Expenses spent Sticking to Your Budget Saving $$$$ Tips Common](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649e8d5503460f94b90d68/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Credit & Revolving Credit
Credit cards are a form of revolving credit.
Revolving charge accounts allow you to borrow at any time, in any amount up to a maximum credit limit.
![Page 22: UK 101 Money Management. Overview What is a Budget SMART Goals Income Received Expenses spent Sticking to Your Budget Saving $$$$ Tips Common](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649e8d5503460f94b90d68/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
How Much Does Credit Cost?
When you buy on credit, you use someone else’s money so you can buy something now.
The price you pay of using the money is called interest.
Interest varies from creditor to creditor, so shop around, and ask the following questions: What is the annual percentage rate? How long do you have to pay off the loan? What is the cost of late charges for overdue payments? If you pay the loan off early, are there any pre-
payment penalties?

Credit History
Your credit history shows your ability and willingness to repay a debt.
It is measured by your record of paying bills.
It is determined by how prompt and reliable you have been in making past credit payments.
A good credit history helps you qualify for credit and helps you get credit at a lower cost.

How Long You Take to Repay
The longer you take to repay your debt, the more you will pay.
Take the shortest amount of time to repay a debt and make the highest monthly payment you can safely afford.

Should You Use Credit?
Before buying an item on credit, ask yourself if you can justify using credit rather than waiting to buy the item when you have the cash. Is this something I
really need? Is this something I
planned in my budget? Can I make payments?
![Page 26: UK 101 Money Management. Overview What is a Budget SMART Goals Income Received Expenses spent Sticking to Your Budget Saving $$$$ Tips Common](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649e8d5503460f94b90d68/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Advantages Disadvantages
Credit allows you to use an item while you are paying for it.
If you carry credit cards, you can carry less cash.
With credit, you can buy more than you can afford.
If you don’t understand the credit contract, you may agree to something you don’t really intend to.
Overuse and abuse of credit can lead to a poor credit rating.
The use of credit ties up money out of paychecks in the coming months.

Reducing the Cost of Credit

percentage rate Arrange the highest monthly payment you
can afford Pay your bills on time, which protects your
credit rating Only use credit when you really need it
