1. First start by finding out your household’s sources of income, such as wages, investments and any other source of money.
2. Then create a list of all your monthly expenses, such as mortgage/rent, utilities, food, medical expenses, and entertainment costs.
3. Identify areas to cut back spending if your total expenses exceed your total income.
4. Determine how often you need to review and update your budget.
5. Use budgeting tools and software such as a spreadsheet or an app to help you track your spending and savings.
