[5]
reasons budgeting is the most powerful
[8]
financial tool you can ever use to
[12]
improve your finances
[21]
that's coming up so stick around
[24]
I am MK the CPA and along with my
[27]
psychic chipper on this channel our goal
[30]
is to help you improve your personal
[33]
finances your career and your life there
[36]
are literally hundreds if not thousands
[40]
of books written on the subject of
[41]
personal finance investing etc but I
[44]
have found that there is no financial
[47]
tool or strategy for your personal
[49]
finances that will help you more than
[51]
having a detailed budget today I'm going
[54]
to be talking about the five primary
[57]
reasons why using a budget is an
[59]
absolute must if you want to build
[61]
wealth and financial security throughout
[63]
the course of your life okay guys it was
[66]
super hard to narrow this down just a
[68]
five main reason there are plenty more
[70]
that we could even consider our talked
[73]
about but I think you're going to like
[75]
the reasons I chose and I saved the most
[77]
important one for last so please watch
[79]
this until the very end of the video
[81]
number one an accurate budget will allow
[83]
you to see how much your spins and can
[85]
save each month plus it will help you
[88]
prioritize your expenses accordingly if
[91]
you were ever put in a bad financial
[92]
situation your budget is your battle
[96]
plan that is going to help you lay out
[98]
how you would like to conquer your
[99]
financial goal number two a budget is
[103]
more than just numbers it is actually
[105]
describing who you are
[107]
it is telling of the kind of lifestyle
[110]
you live and your spending habits it
[112]
will show you the strengths and
[113]
weaknesses of your finances based upon
[115]
the income you receive each month
[117]
compared to your monthly expenses and
[119]
what types of monthly expenses you have
[121]
your budget is like looking into a
[124]
financial mirror in the similar sense it
[127]
is like weighing yourself or tracking
[129]
how many calories you eat each day and
[131]
the numbers don't lie
[134]
alright number three this kind of sounds
[136]
crazy guys but an accurate budget it's
[138]
kind of like having a crystal ball that
[140]
is going to allow you to see into the
[143]
future and help you predict how soon
[146]
you're going to retire or how sooner to
[148]
be able to pay off your debt
[150]
isn't it good to know now not later how
[153]
much money you need to be putting away
[155]
every single month in order to be able
[157]
to retire you're going to want to know
[159]
this number as soon as humanly possible
[161]
so that you can realign your spending
[164]
habits and even your career if necessary
[167]
in order for you to be able to make
[169]
enough and put away enough for you to be
[172]
able to retire someday number four a
[176]
budget is actually going to help you
[177]
stay out of debt by finding your money
[180]
on paper first you're going to be so
[183]
much less likely to fall in the trap of
[185]
debt what many people do is they don't
[188]
take the time to put the spin their
[190]
money on paper what do they do well I
[193]
got two fans out of myself but we go to
[195]
the store we see something we like we go
[197]
to the mall and we pull out that credit
[200]
card and we start swiping and it's not
[202]
until later when we get home that's when
[206]
we realize once we put our finances
[208]
together at that point we're like ah
[210]
shoot I don't have enough to pay this
[212]
office in a month and that's how you end
[214]
up with credit card debt so no no no
[217]
don't don't do that that's going to piss
[219]
off the piggy bank instead what I would
[227]
like you guys to do is before you go on
[230]
some big shopping trip make sure you
[232]
check your budget or know what your
[234]
budget is that way you have complete
[236]
clarity about what you're going to be
[239]
spending or not spending when you're out
[241]
shopping since you won't be guessing
[243]
what you're spending you're going to be
[245]
like a money managing professional and
[248]
you're not going to be later at the
[250]
mercy of MasterCard or Visa number five
[255]
I've saved the best for last and believe
[259]
it or not having a budget can actually
[261]
bring you in your spouse closer together
[264]
so one of the two main causes of divorce
[267]
in America well the two main causes are
[270]
communication and fights about money or
[272]
money issues this area finances is
[275]
greatly under analyzable I hope you guys
[277]
realize no matter how hard or how smart
[279]
you are you will never hit your
[281]
financial goals without you and your
[282]
spouse working together a budget will
[285]
help get you in your spouse on the same
[287]
page and working towards the same goal
[288]
it may create conflict at first but it
[292]
opens the lines of furyk communication
[294]
between you and your spouse and will
[296]
ultimately bring you closer together and
[297]
working more together because budging
[301]
can actually bring you and your spouse
[303]
closer together and working more in
[305]
harmony that is one of the primary if
[308]
not the primary reason why budging is
[312]
the most powerful financial tool on the
[315]
planet I want you guys know I'm going to
[317]
be creating an entire course on the
[320]
