Build A Budget That Works For You

Financial trends come and go, and it appears as though one approach to finance that industry professionals have long touted is having a moment. According to Debt.com, 86 percent of the more than 1,000 respondents who participated in the site's annual budgeting survey admitted they budget their spending. That marks a roughly 16 percent increase since 2019.

Each person's budget will be different, but that doesn't mean people need to take wholly unique approaches to building a budget. In fact, a conventional approach to budget-building can help people from all walks of life.
