How can I tell if I'm living beyond my means?

You can tell if you're living beyond your means by monitoring your spending. Once you have identified your income and expenditures, compare these to see if you are spending more than you earn. You should also consider looking at your savings and investments to see if you are setting enough money aside for the future. Finally, having a budget and tracking your spending can help you monitor and make sure that you are living within your means.
