When we talk about budget, we refer to keep track of our income and expenses that we have in our home, today in our country, we have to see very well what we are going to spend due to the high costs of food, medicine, clothing, the least costs are utilities, such as electricity, water, telephone, among others.
In addition to this, the salaries are quite low as public administration workers, compared to other countries worldwide, however despite this, my wife and I plan when it comes to take the expenses we have in our home according to the income received with the salary and what we get working through the internet. Every time we get our paycheck, we combine the two salaries to be able to buy some food, and even when we do this, we do not miss some food to complete the feeding of us and the two children.
One of the things we do, when we receive some benefits such as vacations, and other bonuses that we get for our work, as our children are on school vacation, we buy their uniforms, shoes, clothes, notebooks, pencils, school bags, in advance, that is to say long before school starts, in order to have everything ready for when they will start their school activities, because when classes are approaching, the prices of uniforms and everything goes up exaggeratedly.
On the other hand, when we get our paycheck, we make a list of the food we need and then we buy according to this income. Then with the other income I have, I buy other things that are missing to cover the food for the week.
Here in this country, we really have to have a good budget, because if not, it is difficult to be able to cover the expenses to be able to live. We professionals have to work several jobs to be able to buy other things that are required, such as medicines and recreation, which is necessary for everyone's life.
It should be noted that at present, it is impressive how we in our home, thank God, have been able to keep a good budget, mainly food expenses, and all the things our children need, the Hive platform has not provided help to provide money to buy food, and other things such as medicine that are required for health.

Today, both women and men have to work, in my case we are both professionals, and we have gotten ahead, it is not easy, but when situations like these arise, we must seek to undertake to obtain other income, to cover expenses and plan a good spending budget according to our income.
This was my experience with my budget, where we often do like magic.
