Budgeting?

Money, money, money
They say that money makes the world go round and that it is the answer to all problems, but there are times I'm sure we all wish that there was a "Money Tree" in our back yard that we could just shake when we have a need. I definitely wish I had one. As we grow older and receive allowances from our parents or that grandmother that pinches your cheeks, we are taught to save or budget.

Budgeting in itself is hard. It's like if you know that you are going to receive that money, you plan to use it for so many things. We make lists, do intense calculations and deep thinking, but when the money really comes, it's like our minds totally disregard the lists, the late night planning and intense calculations.

Money is just paper (or coins), and it simply has a value. Budgeting was created in an effort to prevent people from over spending and running short of money half-way through the month, but sometimes when we try to save to hard the money grows legs and runs away from us. 

I guess I'll learn to properly budget over the years, but for now, I'm not trying too hard, which could be a bad thing.....
