How do we make a budget? | Feb Financial Fixes
About this episode
Budgets! Ergh, such a dirty word. Sophie and Maddy want to rebrand the idea of setting yourself something restrictive, but we can't ignore the facts. If you're not checking what you're spending as the prices rise, then how will you have anything left over to invest? Together they go through some of the super easy steps that you can put in place to take (baby) moves towards having a budget.
