- 01
Know your income and fixed costs
Start with what you earn and the outflows that repeat every month. That's your baseline.
- 02
Track your spending
Log expenses consistently so 'where does it go?' has a real answer, not a guess.
- 03
Budget and save on purpose
Allocate to needs, wants and savings deliberately — move savings first, not last.
- 04
Review monthly and adjust
Once a month, look back, note what worked, and make one small change.
