Moolanomy weekly roundup #7: “Budgeting” edition
On Friday, I wrote “Discover your money values and financial demons.” The idea was to keep track of every pennies spent in order to learn about your spending habits, priorities, and money leaks. I have never been a big fan of budgeting because it is tedious — as long as I have money to spend and invest, I am happy. With that post, I am thinking about giving budgeting a try. Here are some posts from my feed reader about budgeting:
