Hi, I’m just asking people to look at my budget and let me know what they think. I’m currently having some trouble budgeting and I’ve decided to go with the 50/30/20 rule. This is how my budget works out now. 50% goes to fixed costs such as rent, car insurance, utilities, internet, cell phone bill. Then I have 30% for discretionary spending and 20% for saving. Now I know I just knocked out half of my income with my fixed costs, but I’m hoping it’s a good idea. <br><br>Thanks to anyone that gives me advice. <br><br>Edit: I probably should’ve mentioned I’m 24 right now.
