Distinguishing Wants from Needs can be a bit eye-opening when we look at things fairly otherwise we will run out of cash sooner before getting paid. With inflation significantly effecting our buying power, we may find ourselves Prioritizing a choice between similar needs, such times I would try and find additional income or reduce costs elsewhere. It's always wise to have an Emergency fund balance. When I exceed that monthly target balance I would treat family and myself. Reward yourself for a job done well @elizabeth2323
