We need to figure out how much money we're spending and what we're spending it on.
Why?
Well, I think we could be saving more.
Really, well, o. k. Get the receipts out.
Let's see. We spent $ 700 dollars for our home loan payment, $ 400 on groceries, $ 75 on utilities, $ 250 on gasoline, $ 100 on books, and $ 300 on entertainment last month.
That's $ 1825.
We put $ 500 into the savings account, and $ 750 into our stock account.
$ 3075. Our paychecks our $ 3300, combined. That means we don't have any receipts for $ 225.
