      My kid’s money goes into their bank account, my savings money will go into my “no touch” savings account, my debt money and mortgage money will go straight to making a principal payment and the other misc money is going into a bucket account where I can separate different categories. I also keep track on a notebook I use as a register to see which money is for which category so I know when to use it if needed. ☺️ Hope this helps? Happy New Year!!! 🎆☺️

    How do you separate your money into the envelopes? Do you use a certain amount of money or percentage for each envelope? What do you do for work? What kind of debt do you have? This is great to save this much but I am trying to understand how without knowing what you separate each envelope every month.

    • @BudgetWithBrenz
      @BudgetWithBrenz  Před 2 lety

      In my other cash stuffing videos I have mentioned this, but I always make sure my bills are paid first, then whatever is leftover is what I cash stuff. I have a mortgage and one personal loan which is my only debt. I don’t have credit card debt. I decide how much I can put towards my sinking funds envelopes by priority of it. I’ll try to go over more in detail in a future video.
