47: Simplify Your Budget The Simplified Podcast with Emily Ley

    • Personal Journals

This time of year, so many of us resolve to get better with our finances. And the cornerstone of getting good at your money might not be flashy, but it sure is effective: it’s knowing how much money you have coming in and how much is going out. That’s basically a fancy way of saying “making a budget.” And you know what? Even if you’re not a “numbers” person, you can make a budget —  and it doesn’t have to be complicated (side note: Emily didn’t think she was a numbers person either, and surprise, now she runs a business!). Today, Emily’s dropping four super-helpful tips on how to kick off your financial journey this year on the right foot. From dividing your spending into categories, to getting help from a financial advisor, no matter where you’re starting from you’ll become more confident as you make you simplify your budget and start to understand how to make your money work for you.
