Budgeting for college debt
Nancy Tyler & Charley
Struggling to pay for college?
Budgeting is the most basic and most effective tool for managing your money, yet most people avoid doing so because it's additional work. What budgeting actually does is it helps to show you how to smartfully spend your money and gives you the choices on what stuff to enjoy based on your financial limitations. It will save you the grief of overspending and being too much in debt. Budgeting doesn't stop you from enjoying stuff, it ensures that you enjoy stuff when you want it.
