Guys, keeping our mental health stay sane, we need to take days off from daily routine. My shop always open everyday, but i try to managed my time to spend with my family. Yesterday, my wife, my daughter and i took our first family lunch at one of our favorite resto.
After close my shop very early (thank God the product that we sell was soldout) so i aske my wife to took my daughter to kids playgroudn first, after i close my shop, i pick up my wife and daughter at kids playground and continue to had a very late lunch.
My wife and i are agree to make entertainment budget, so we can do this simple thing that made our family happy. We know, we cant do it daily, so we make aure that we do this at least 2-3 times a month

How about you? Do you have e special budget for this?

I have never actually thought about this, now that you mentioned it, it actually makes lots of sense. I am currently trying to restructure things right now, i believe i would make provisions for this.

No, we don't make that special budget but we always ensure that we at least go out for dine-out once a week. Every year we plan a tour within our country. We make budget for the tour and ensure that we save some money for the hotel or the fare. We don't stay in five star hotel as they are out of our budget.

It's better to make a budget for anything we do and ensure that our expenditure doesn't exceed it.

You have to quit, if you think you can do it.
Yes, family is everything and making them happy is my job as the head of the family. We have to save money for entertainment budget, we can use daily budget for that. So, my wife and i agree to save our money for this. I believe that happy wife is happy life.

Agree with you @Starmix , money will follow if we make an effort to earn more and more. And i always told my wife i will earn more so she can spend more and still we have to stick to our saving plan. Balancing life and enjoy life to the fullest, though.

It is also not good to always send money going out. We can set the date and time. Saving is very necessary this time. We are not yet virus-free.

Saving is always on the top list, Erly. Entertainment budget always depends on monthly earning, sometime more or less, but saving is always the same amount every month, and emergency fund too. I always do all of it. Yin and yang, balancing life and also plan for the better future.

That is true, in my case, I give my sisters money when they want to shop as their happiness and buy what they like. We are happy to see our family happy.
