Budgeting in Marriage.

 Hello everyone I hope you all had a wonderful week and had some time to spend with your families, friends, and loved ones. So for today in my family relations class, one of the topics that we learned was about the importance of budgeting, and throughout this week I had a talk with my girlfriend about the importance of saving up and budgeting and also about getting a house but then it intrigued me and inspired me to learn more about another form of topic. So for today for this blog I am going to talk and share about the importance of marriageable budgeting.

 

Marriage as you know it only happens once in a lifetime and it's a very special connection between two individuals who are falling in love and discover commitment, trust, and bonding to form teamwork and a connection that will always be tested but shall never be broken. By that one of the major things that couples always need to discuss is not about just the relationships or how much the 2 individuals love each other it's for the fact about the responsibilities that both individuals have to partake in order to for Phil their goals. And one of those goals is how to support each other financially and that's where budgeting comes in budgeting is not something that we should be ashamed of it is a great tool to help us always plan on things that we want and things that we need and what I do is basically when I budget I always separate into two categories which these categories are the necessities and the luxuries. The necessities are items that I can use more than once every daily life orchid are basically foods such as ingredients that I can cook on a multiple daily bases, things also like books for helping me study and to gain important knowledge or just knowledge for fun, and last but not least stuff such as motor vehicles and also gas and oil to always make sure that I have something to travel with. And things of luxuries are items that I only desire and don't really need presently which means that I don't need them at the moment. These categories helped me understand the importance of things that I truly need and things that I can want but not right now. I had conversations like this with my girlfriend about how we can support each other financially and one of our major goals is for me to finish college and for us to find a stable home. Actually, just last week I did a math study about trendlines and one of the topics that I've chosen was home price predictions this study helps me to show off what kind of financial amount I need in order to find a stable home and before that, I actually did a home study case for the same class and this kind of study helped me to find a stable home that can be financially acceptable and also supportive towards my family's needs and the most important thing is about budgeting and marriage it's for the fact that it wouldn't hurt to get some luxury things, however, necessities will help us with things such as feeding our children and also getting to places that we need to be in order to fulfill the luxury things. So what I'm saying is that budget is one of the world's greatest tools to help in marriage and also to help provide for families in fact future families for that matter and sometimes we don't want to use it but it doesn't mean that we still need to have it in case something bad might have happened and that's why budgeting is very important in marriage is not for the fact that we are going to lose everything but it helps us become better providers.

 

For the scripture I want to end reading for this blog for today is Deuteronomy 8:17 which reads, “And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.”
