If you use it, a budget puts you in control of your money. It is a tool for knowing where your money comes from (income) and planning where it goes (saving and spending). Use the work sheet below to create your own personal budget. At the beginning of each month, write the amount you plan to spend and record what you actually spend. Skip expenses that do not apply.
