I get a weekly paycheck from my internship. It’s not much, but I work part-time. I’m trying to be more accountable for it, so I’ll post it up here on Mondays. I’m going to try and stick to it . On Friday, I’ll update this and show if I kept to it or not.

Paycheck :$283.37

Here’s my budget for it:

Joint: $160

Gasoline: $40

Food: $10

Savings: $20
I want to thank Flexo and Krystal for this idea. I’m hoping it’ll help me become better with my finances.
