32 | Getting Your Annual Base Budget Ready and How SINKING FUNDS Can Help You Stick to Your Monthly Budget

Renae Matt Episode 32

Getting your base budget prepped for the new year is one thing that should be at the top of your list right now! Together, we can make this the year that you stop feeling overwhelmed with money stress. In order to do that, you need to start with your base budget and then learn from there. You have permission to tweak it as you go, but the first thing to do is to refresh (or build) your base budget so you are prepped and ready for the year ahead!

In today’s episode, I’m sharing a breakdown of how we utilize something called “sinking funds” to help us stay on track, even when unexpected expenses arise.

This is going to be a fun one and you’ll probably want to take some notes!

Let’s get started!
