How to Foolproof Your Budget

It's PAYDAY! Put that check in the bank and get ready to PAR-TAY!!! Now you can finally pay some overdue bills, buy that gear you've been eyeing and stock the refrigerator. That is, until the end of the month, when the next payday is still days away, the bills are piling up, the fridge is empty and you don't have enough money to put gas in the car. Yeah....

Epipheo shows you how a little something called the Envelope System can help you make sure you always have money for the things you need.

@sihplak Party could be better defined as entertainment, everyone needs some form of entertainment or do you just stare at the walls until you need to go back to work?

@pr1nc355allie The video is geared to people who have not grown up and still want to PAR-TAY! Ephipeo should stress putting some money in the savings for a down payment and rainy days, before you go PAR-TAY! It has been my experience if you pay a rent it is about the same as paying a mortgage. Why are you paying the landlords mortgage? You can deduct the interest you pay on your taxes. You also buildup equity when paying a mortgage. Let me guess you guys don't believe in banks? Occupy?

My payday is EVERY Saturday. 5 bucks O_O I'm still on allowance ;P

When I DO get a real job, I'll probably start like working at a store, or something. THEN, I'll save up my money from that job to start my career as a fashion designer :D (Or I might get a loan) I'll promote it and stuff, and it'll be coutoure... then, I'll move to a place super glamerous....but, throughout my life, I'll always still have my mom paying me allowance :P

@loweg Hopefully by the time you're well off enough to pay a mortgage, you're no longer living pay check to pay check on the envelope system and know how to spend responsibly within your means. This video is most likely geared toward those of us just starting out and not yet as fortunate as you. :)
