Hey Everyone, I hope you are all fine and doing great. Hey Everyone, I hope you are all fine and doing great. This Post is my entry to Weekly Featured Content in the #Hivelearners community. Today's topic to write about is Budgeting In December
December is considered one of the coldest months of the year in Pakistan and it is also considered as the marriage month. Most of the marriages are held in this month. Actually, November, December and January are considered marriage months, But December is ahead of these two months:P We have got 4 marriage invitations in the next 4 days.
It has become a formality to go to the marriage and give some money to the people who have invited you to their marriage and it's going on for decades. I will not go into the debate about if it is right or wrong.
Also, December also comes with the holidays and many other festivals, so, it becomes very hard to do budgeting for this month. Along with all these things, we have an inflation sword hanging on our heads.
Just today I went grocery with a budget of 5k Pkr and when the counter boy made the Bill, it was 10k PkR, double what was in my mind and believe me it is one of the groceries we do in a month.
Things are getting out of control, after today's grocery, I asked my wife to control our expenses, because I am not a person who likes to ask others for money. I just hate this thing. the best thing is the control your expenses rather than asking other's for money as debt.
I can't do anything against the invite we got, we will go there for sure and spend some money, but yes, I can control something like not driving a car for the rest of the month.
I will try to not go out to any expensive hotel for dinner or lunch stuff, So that, because I don't want to get out of my budget, if it did happen, things would get worse, and I may need to ask someone for money, which I don't like at all, and I have already said it in my post.
But it doesn't mean we will not enjoy December month, we will enjoy it, by going to less expensive hotels. I will drive my motorbike, which gives me 4 times more average than my car.
The best thing is my family is with me in all these and my wife is with me during this inflation time. She is cooperating and helping me through these hard times.
Take Care Everyone.
