Our experts from New Perspectives discuss with our MPB host ways to cut expenses from your life.


First: start by tracking your spending habits.

Next, get on a budget.

When looking to cut expense, re-evaluate your subscriptions.

Utility and specifically electric use are large portions of the average household budget.

The food budget is usually a pretty big part of a budget.

If you’re looking to cut expenses, make it harder to spend money.


( didn’t get to:

Your insurance payments may be taking up more of your budget than needed.

Sometimes cutting expenses means more drastic measures.

Look at housing costs

Sometimes vices or bad habits are putting a drain on your wallet.

A very drastic measure to save money might be have a family member live somewhere else – such as a pet.

Also look at gift giving options, organized children’s activities, and personal grooming.)
