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….

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

    Cute, but not so fool proof. This does not work for
    all scenarios! Suppose you pay a mortgage instead of rent. Like me. You
    can not pay cash if the mortgage company is not local. You can try to
    get a local mortgage company but mortgages get sold all the time. I am
    sure I can figure out some other scenarios, like car note. That the cash
    in the envelope budget just wont work. Maybe a little less PAR-TAY!!
    and the Epipheo would be able to see the whole picture that grown-ups
    have to deal with. Just my two cents.
