Here’s How the 50/30/20 Rule Can Help You Budget
Budgeting is a really hard thing to master. That said, all of us will need to tackle the skill at one time or another.
If you’re still looking for a method that works for you, consider the 50/30/20 rule to get you going.
The rule was first popularized by Senator Elizabeth Warren and her daughter Amelia in their 2006 book All Your Worth, and, while no strategy works for every single person, experts agree their rule is a great starting point for most.
The duo calls it the “balanced money formula,” and they agree that sticking to this rule of thumb should keep your finances healthy.
“It’s the right place for most people most of the time, and it is a good place to aim for in your lifetime money plan.”
@trademaster101 If you want to follow the rule, you’ll need to budget 50% of your take-home pay for necessities (housing, utilities, loan payments, food, and tuition; perhaps also clothes and transportation).

The next 20% of your take-home pay should go toward savings or retirement goals, or paying down debt, building an emergency fund or saving for a vacation.
