Re: Carers under 30...

What are your goals in sorting your budget?
Have you got car insurance?
How often do you go to chiro? osteo?

Re: Carers under 30...

so that im not cut short during the week im not paid, i want to save but i dont know how much i can put away each week

 

 

my car insurance is included in the 400 but thats only 6 monthly but i only register it every 6 months -ooh s its 40 a fortnight not 20

 

chiro only every 3 months, osteo only when i need it so ill say kinda only every 3 months as well, psycholigist will be forntightly when i get it set back up, and the horses are expensive its jsut 160 for their hooves to get done which are the regular things

Re: Carers under 30...

How often for the hooves @outlander? With the psychologist do you get medicare rebate?
If you allow for either chiro or osteo once a month that would be 35 fortnight. Meds too, add them in, do you buy your own secret women's business supplies? Make up? All needs to go on the spreadsheet

Re: Carers under 30...

every 6 weeks for the horses feet and thats 160 @Former-Member

yes i get 70 back from the psychologist for the next 4 sessions then im not sure after that until i get it reviewed

meds- i have a months supply for all of them now and they all add up to 30 for the lot of them

dont buy make up etc

 

Re: Carers under 30...

Pics take a long time to come through @outlander if you check a recent bank statement too, that will show where else you are spending - EFTs
How much longer have you got on computer, mattress and Centrelink loans?

Re: Carers under 30...

Matress and computer still the rest of this year and all of next year

The centrelink loan is paid off in november @Former-Member

Re: Carers under 30...

That is until November when Centrelink is paid off @outlander
Biggest expense outside of domestic expenses is horsey - close to $200 fortnight, petrol is a big expense too - cutting down on driving might be a way to save.
What is your sisters lesson?
How often do you have a massage?
