What if I told you there is a way you can exponentially grow your money this year, would you be interested?

Well if you are make sure you read this entire post, because we will be talking about an amazing rule, that will help you achieve your financial goals this year. Today we are talking about the 50/30/20 budget rule. I realize you have likely heard or perhaps run over this standard previously, and you may even know some things about this standard. But, in today’s post, we will explain exactly what this budget rule means, how to use the rule, and what not to do so that you can meet your financial goals.

The 50/30/20 standard turns out to be truly outstanding and most mainstream apparatuses for individuals who don't have the opportunity to follow all their spending yet need a simple way to deal with their consumption, set aside cash, and control their cash. The standard works like this; it expects you to isolate your consumption into three classifications.

1-Your Needs                                                                                                                                              2- Your Wants                                                                                                                                               3- And Savings or debt 

To help us illustrate this rule, I’d like you to say hello to John. John’s an average guy who makes $4500 a month after tax. Using the 50-30-20 rule, John will need to divide his money like this.50% of his money which is $2,250 will go into his needs, 30% which is $1,350 will go into his wants and 20% which is $900 will go into his savings, or paying off debt. Just like John you too will need to divide your income into those categories. Simple right? But let’s look at it a little closer.

Step One: Limit Your Needs                                                                                                                    Needs are things you can’t live without. These include things such as housing, health, transportation, utilities, food, paying off debt, and the bare minimum for clothing, shoes, and other living supplies. Just incorporate things you can't make do without in this class. If you don’t have a budget this would be the ideal time to create one. Cautiously break down what you spend your compensation on every month inside this class. Warren and Tyagi, who are financial experts say this category should not exceed 50% of your monthly income, if it does, then something is wrong! If you do however spend more than 50% of your paycheck on your needs, don’t panic. You should simply cautiously assess what you spend your cash on every month. A decent dependable guideline is to follow your use so you can have a decent image of where your cash goes. When you know where your cash is going, change your necessities by diminishing superfluous uses or discover less expensive other options. When your spending matches as far as possible, you would now be able to continue to the subsequent stage.

Step Two: Define Wants Now a whole 30% of your paycheque going towards 

your wants may sound like a whole lot of money, right? You might be envisioning a decent pair of shoes or that new iPhone that got delivered, a day or two ago. As nice as all those things are, we are not talking about buying your deepest desires. By Wants, we mean expenses you can opt-out of spending on but your life would be harder without them. I don't know your life will be any harder without that new telephone, however, you may think that it's difficult to convey without a portable information plan. This class ought to incorporate things like your web plan, information plans, home link bills, mechanical, not corrective fixes to your vehicle, etc. I bet you now get it! Sometimes it may be hard to distinguish between needs and wants. In any case, the general guideline with regards to characterizing a need is by inquiring as to whether you can live without it, and assuming you can, it's most likely won't.

Step 3:Save Up 

The final 20% of your paycheque should go towards your savings and paying off debt if you have any. This money can be used as an emergency fund, a deposit for a home, for investing, or savings for retirement. On the off chance that you feel like that 20% isn't sufficient, you can move more cash from your needs list into this record. Now, let’s talk about the types of debt that should be included in the 20% category. The lone obligation that ought to go into this classification is what is over the base required installment. For example, additional credit card payments, or extra payments on the mortgage to clear your debts faster should go into this category. The minimum debt payments should go towards the needs category. The reasoning behind this is that the minimum required payments are compulsory and failure to pay them would cause adverse effects on your credit status; something you just can’t live with. The 50-30-20 rule is great because, it helps you track your expenditure easily, having just three categories creates a structure that is easy to follow and helps one to focus and manage money better. It’s less detailed making it ideal for individuals who have busy lifestyles and minimal time available in a day. The rule works well for people within the lower income brackets, between $100 - $6000 It’s however not ideal for high-income earners because they would be forced to spend unnecessary money on needs. The 50-30-20 standard has assisted numerous individuals with getting their funds on target. So many financial experts swear by this rule. Numerous individuals who have been in loathsome monetary grooves have endured by following this guide as needs be. You too can be one of them if you apply it today!
