A budget (aka cash flow plan or spending plan) is not confining and restricting but is freedom producing! And there's no true freedom without limits. Absence of limits leads to chaos and anarchy. The plan provides the guidelines/limits that are fredom producing. Radical thought & counter cultural but so true. You’ve made such an important point, Matt.

I can't imagine how families and spouses live with the uncertainty of not knowing where the money is going, how much of it is floating around out there, etc. A budget tells you all of these things. And, once it's set up, it only takes a few minutes each week to stay on top of it. If you don't have a budget, you have no idea the freedom you're missing out on!

If you don’t have a budget, you have no idea the freedom you’re missing out on!

My husband is a pastor, so money has never been in abundance, but I never feel as wealthy as I do when I tip generously. I agree about the tipping.
