Planning a Budget

Choose who you want to be.

Oliver

We should plan our spending this month.

Ruby

I agree. We spent too much last month.

Oliver

Let’s start with rent and bills.

Ruby

Then we need to allow for food.

Oliver

Could we spend less on eating out?

Ruby

Yes. We could cook more meals at home.

Oliver

I’d like to put some money aside too.

Ruby

What are you hoping to save for?

Oliver

A holiday, but only if we can afford it.

Ruby

Let’s save a little each week.

Oliver

I’ll write it down so we can keep track.

Ruby

Good. We can check how we’re doing weekly.
