Under: Budgeting & Saving
Question re: 50/30/20 and Tracking
  • waynefritsche
    Greetings!

    I've seen the 50/30/20 rule applied to necessary expenses, financial goals, and discretionary expenses. Necessary includes groceries and transport, but the LV budgeting application lists groceries and transport in the leftover, discretionary column. How do folks adjust for that?

    Cheers,

    Wayne

    I worked it all out on a piece of paper separately and then entered it into the budget application. :)
