Quotes to ponder:

"When your money is in balance, you always have enough to pay your bills, have some fun, and save for your dreams. And here is the best part of all. Once your money is in balance, you can stop worrying about it."

“You can spend your Wants money on anything that strikes your fancy, so long as you stay within 30% of your income.”

“You certainly won't get into trouble spending like this on Wants. Even so, you should ask yourself - are you making enough room for fun?”
