STEP 2:
CREATE A BUDGET
Why create a budget?
It’s easy to feel like your money vanishes before you know it. A budget helps you see where your money goes, spend on what matters most, and make progress toward paying off debt, saving, and investing. It’s a simple way to take control of your finances and reach your goals.
