For a budget I follow the 50/30/20 budget plan. You can look it up online and it explains what each section entails. It’ll help you figure out how to budget/know if you’re making enough to pay your bills.

I used to budget. Meticulously. I kept all my receipts, wrote everything down, added things up and made sure I had enough. I stopped doing that after a while, because I eventually got a sense of how my finances were without even really thinking about it.
