Do you feel like your pay check just passes through your account each payday, all spent up before you even get a chance to look at your account? Do you always find yourself scraping money together just to pay your bills? Do you often wonder where all your money goes, even if you’re making a decent income? If you do, then let’s face it - you need a budget. No matter how much money you have coming in, without a consistent way to keep track of it, that money is bound to vanish as soon as it goes into your pocket.

Story
Erin Skye Kelly wrote Get the Hell Out of Debt after her own struggle to become consumer-debt free. She was tired of listening to middle-aged men in suits tell her to consolidate and refinance her debt when all that seemed to happen was she’d end up in more of it while they profited from it. When Kelly figured out the two most important tools to money management - and started achieving massive results- other women wanted to join in on the debt-free journey. With her sense of humor and straight-shooting sensibilities, Erin began transforming lives.

Life isn’t about “finding” fulfillment and success - it’s about creating it. Why then has creativity been given a back seat in our culture? No longer. Creativity is a force inside every person that, when unleashed, transforms our lives and delivers vitality to everything we do. Establishing a creative practice is therefore our most valuable and urgent task - as important to our well-being as exercise or nutrition. The good news? Renowned artist, author, and CreativeLive founder, Chase Jarvis, reminds us that creativity isn't a skill - it's a habit available to everyone.

She saw what other moms had—vacations, birthday parties, a house full of furniture—and felt ashamed that she and her son lived in a small apartment and ate dinner on the floor. Worse, when her feelings began to exhaust her, she binge-shopped, reasoning that she’d feel better after a trip to the mall.

No matter your current financial standing, inside this guide you’ll find down-to-earth advice and actionable strategies to kickstart your financial health and save for your retirement together. Whether you want to maximize your income, cut out useless spending, or save up for a car, house, or even to have a child, Budgeting for Couples 101 arms you with the essential knowledge you need to revolutionize your financial skills as both a couple and a team.
Written by: Nora Graves
Publisher's Summary
For most people, budgeting conjures up the same feelings as, say, prison and dieting. But your initial instinct couldn't be further from the truth. You just haven't budgeted the right way.
You Need a Budget will teach you four simple rules to completely revolutionize the way you think about managing your money. With a budget, you'll break the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle, get out of debt, and save more money. A liberating, enabling, empowering budget will actually make you feel more free, not more restricted. The YNAB philosophy is centered around these four rules:
- Give every dollar a job. Take your cash, checking, and saving accounts and assign jobs to that money. Begin now with what you have on hand. Then follow your plan. Pick your priorities, and make sure your dollars are helping you move closer to the things you care about most.
- Embrace your true expenses. Look ahead and identify the larger, less frequent expenses that tend to sneak up on you. Break those expenses into manageable monthly amounts. Consider insurance premiums, birthdays, holidays, charitable giving, car repairs, etc. This practice evens out your cash outflows, decreases your stress, and helps you make better decisions.
- Roll with the punches. Accept the fact that life always changes and you'll likely always go over budget somewhere. If an unexpected expense comes up and you need to change your budget, just change it. The YNAB philosophy not only tolerates changing your budget but encourages it.
- Age your money. The goal of this rule is to increase the time between the moment you earn money and the moment you spend that money. In other words, if you're going to break the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle, you need to learn to live on money you earned a month or two months or even three months ago.
YNAB's four rules are the pillars of a tried-and-true system that gets you to engage with your money every day. It helps you change your behavior so that you're proactive and in control of your finances. It's not about stressing over last month's statement; instead, you're looking ahead and actively deciding how you want and need to build a life of meaning, not stress.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Give every dollar a purpose - zero based budgeting.
I started the book because I have no debt but constantly wonder where did my money go. My bills are always paid, overall I’m handling my finances well, but I struggle with the spending. Throughout the book I was wondering when is he going to talk about envelopes or the practical how-to of implementing the concept. Turns out it’s all done in your chequing account and with a spreadsheet. I was a little worried at first because I feel like money in the bank IS the problem. With a couple examples I realized, understanding the concept and changing your behaviour accordingly is key. I don’t want envelopes of money all over, I want a lot of money in the bank that has a purpose. If it has a purpose I won’t spend it so willy-nilly. So overall excellent book and concept for getting people started for the first time or back on track for the 100th time.

More like a therapy on budgeting & consumer spending
At first, I questioned why this book isn’t free, as it would be an awesome advertising for the app. Then, as I listened to the author, I realized that this was precisely what I was looking for — an informative piece on how to have a healthier perspective on spending $ budgeting.
