Another week and another paycheck. This week looks a lot better than last week.
Paycheck: $280.65
Here’s my budget for it:
Joint: $160
Gasoline: $40
Savings: $20
Food: $15
Credit Card: $15
Net Income: $47.21
I get to keep more into my checking account this week. I’m trying to build a buffer into my checking account, as I am considering cutting back my hours. I haven’t made a final decision; I’m just going to see how the semester rolls out. I want to finish on a high note and I feel that a slightly smaller paycheck is acceptable if it comes to that scenario.
