How do i use my income to spend, save and invest?... You know the funny part? everyone spends but not everyone save and invest... Smiles π, that sounds funny right? But unfortunately that's true.
Okay, am gonna bring you up to speed on how I use my income to spend, save and invest. Once I receive my income (monthly income) I divide it into three [60/10/30], although I don't like maths but when it comes to money am always a mathematician. The 60% is for my spending. yes spending, were you expecting me to say 50% ? When you know how inflation is hitting hard recently? Ofcourse I need to provide my primary needs ( food, shelter, clothes) and other vital miscellaneous like paying of electricity bill, water bill, environmental bill, subscription bill, let me stop here the bills are getting much alreadyπ. Then I save 10% and invest 30%. You wonder why I save 10% and invest 30% ?, Because I don't dream to be poor, how? Okay let me burst your bubbles,.. since I SPEND 60% of my income taking care of my needs and wants (obviously), I choose to save 10% which is also likely to be SPENT (just that it may be on (emergencies or otherwise), now the only way I have to build my future is to INVEST more than I saveπ. [NOTE: Any money spent can never return, but any money invested wisely MUST return in many folds]. This is how I use my income to spend, save and invest.
