Why Budget? Seven Benefits of Budgeting
By Jane Chidester, the author of "BudgetYes!"
1. Know what is going on. Personal budgeting allows you to know exactly how
much money you have-even down to the penny, if you so desire. Furthermore, a budget is a self-education
tool that shows you how your funds are allocated, how they are working for you, what your plans are for
them, and how far along you are toward reaching your goals. "Knowledge is power," as the
oft-quoted saying of George Eliot goes, and knowing about your money is the first step toward controlling
it. That leads us to our next benefit:
2. Control. A budget is the key to enabling you to take charge of your finances. With a budget,
you have the tools to decide exactly what is going to happen to your hard-earned money-and when. You can be in
control of your money, instead of having your money limit what you do. This bears repeating: you can be in
control of your money, instead of letting it control you!
3. Organization. Even in its simplest form, a budget systematizes, or divides, funds into
categories of expenditures and savings. Beyond that, however, budgets can provide further organization by
automatically providing records of all your monetary transactions. They can also provide the foundation for a
simple filing system to organize bills, receipts, and financial statements.
4. Communication. If you are married, have a family, or share money with anyone, having a budget
that you both (or all) create together is a key to resolving personal differences about money handling. The budget
is a communication tool to discuss the priorities for where your money should be spent, as well as enabling all
involved parties to "run" the system.
5. Take advantage of opportunities. Knowing the exact state of your personal monetary affairs, and
being in control of them, allows you to take advantage of opportunities that you might otherwise miss. Have you
ever wondered if you could afford something? With a budget, you will never have to wonder again-you will know.
6. Extra time. All your financial transactions are automatically organized for tax time, for creditor
questions, in fact, for any query which may come up regarding how and when you spent money. Being armed with such
information sure saves time digging through old records.
7. Extra money. This might well be everyone's favorite benefit. A budget will almost certainly produce
extra money for you to do with as you wish. Hidden fees and lost interest paid to outsiders can be eliminated forever.
Unnecessary expenditures, once identified, can be stripped out. Savings, even small ones, can be accumulated and made
to work for you
