You’re not thinking about the future.
According to Misty Lynch, a certified financial planner and a financial advisor at Beck Bode, “When I see a budget that a client has put together on their own, it is usually a spreadsheet that lists out their fixed expenses and some variable expenses that they have gotten used to spending each month.”
It’s nothing wrong with that, Lynch continued saying, the only thing is that you’re forgetting about the things you might want to do in the future. She recommends putting more money aside that isn’t necessary part of an emergency fund, this way you won’t be forced to take money from anywhere else when you need them.
When you’re not thinking about the future and something does come up, you might start to resent your budget and stop following it, Misty Lynch explains.
