We all know that money is important.  It just never seems to be that big of a deal.  Most of us are pretty responsible, right?  We don't go blowing our money on the really crazy or stupid things.  We probably even have made reasonable choices for most of our purchases.  The problem, however, is that we aren't really sure exactly what we are spending our money on.  It just sort of happens.

The purpose of a budget is to transform our spending from something that "happens" to something that is "intentional."  A good budget may look a lot like what you already spend money on.  The difference is that you will actually know what you are spending.  There are some categories we probably spend too much on - a budget will help with that.  But there are many more benefits to a budget than simple knowledge.  It can change your future.  In this episode I discuss more.
