You’ve definitely lost control of your budget when…

September 17, 2007 by Rachel
  • you operate your PERSONAL finances at a deficit (the same way the government operates our nation's finances)
  • you record all your financial transactions in the MISCELLANEOUS category
  • you can fit your "written budget" on the palm of your hand
  • your idea of a monthly allowance is "whatever is left"
  • you cannot identify $5, $10, or $20 bills when you see them in circulation
  • you think, because of the free t-shirts, filling out credit card applications is a good way to beef up your wardrobe
  • you have figured out a way to "float" your online bank payments
  • you have been "hand picked" as the representative for your bank's overdraft protection ad campaign
  • you think it is easier to have your paycheck direct deposited straight into your creditors accounts to "cut out the middleman"
  • your children create their "wish lists" from the credit card company REWARD program brochures
  • your financial plan includes the words "winning the lottery"
