FAQ

What is the 50/30/20 rule?

The 50/30/20 rule is a classic budget allocation method: 50% of income goes to Needs (Housing, Food, Transport, Healthcare), 30% to Wants (Entertainment, Shopping, Education), and 20% to Savings and Investment.

How to determine category ratios?

Track 1-2 months of spending, then adjust. Common: housing up to 30%, food 10-15%, transport 5-10%, entertainment 5-10%, savings at least 20%.
