Money Talks: Monthly Spending Plan

We’d all love to have more money to invest. Before you can find ways to get your money to grow, you have to save money. Budgeting can help you do that. If you need a little help writing out a plan to spend your money each week, this is the show for you.


Instead of a "Budget" call it a "Monthly Spending Plan" if that helps you feel better.


We spend a bit of the show discussing Inflation in addition to budgets (and Kevin's savings account interest rate).


The 2022 Mississippi Sales Tax Holiday takes place between 12:01 A.M. Friday, July 29, 2022 and 12:00 Midnight Saturday, July 30, 2022.

Sometimes it takes hearing a message a few times for it to take hold. If you need to hear more, and a little bit different information about budgets, please listen to our September 17th 2019 podcast titled Money Talks: Budgets
