Your
"Money plan"
Having a money
plan simply means knowing what your monthly bills are and how you will
pay them. It also means prioritizing your spending. The standard rent
first, drugs last rule keeps many users out of financial and housing
trouble while they still enjoy regular partying. Putting drugs before
rent or other bills only causes bigger problems down the road. So ALWAYS
PAY YOUR RENT FIRST! If you think paying rent is a pain in the ass,
try being homeless.
Putting together
a money plan is easy
Just list your bills, their due dates, and how you will pay them. |

Then
decide how much you can spend each month on other things like partying,
movies, cigarettes, clothes, etc. |

Whats
the payoff for all of this effort?
A roof over your head,

find
something that motivates you. Following a plan makes money management
much less painful!
