LET'S START

50/30/20 Rule: Divide your monthly income into 50% needs, 30% wants and 20% in savings.

Wait 24 hours before spending substantially and question, "Do I want it?" Go for it if you receive yes, else no.

After receiving your monthly salary, automate or transfer a fixed amount to your savings account.
