I can still remember those days when we used to complain about how quickly our money from the paycheck disappears. It is like receiving the paycheck on one hand and out goes the paycheck on the other hand. And we used to complain that we don’t even have to chance to enjoy spending our hard earn money. All of our money had gone into paying off utility bills, credit card payments, and etc. It is only much later that we realized that we were bad money manager and we didn’t make the effort to track how we spent our money and most of the time, we spent more than what we could afford. I guess it is because some of us were young and ignorant but we get to learn from our careless mistakes to become wiser.

Looking back, I suppose we were quite contented to be able to stay clear of debt by being able to clear our outstanding bills. The only thing is that we don’t get to see any balance in our bank account and didn’t get to enjoy some of what we had earned. To me, the word budget is a boring word. After all, not every one of us like dealing with figures and accounts. But most of us learnt the hard way that creating a budget is very important. It is actually foolishness to ignore our cash flow and our careless spending habits.

Nowadays, we are fortunate to have access to some of the top spending tracker apps that we can download and install onto our mobile phones or computers to help us track and manage our finance.
