most people in our present society always want to belong so they live above their earnings making it quite difficult for them to save..... saving requires a level of discipline... it is advisable that one puts away 10% of every income he gets as savings then you can now spend the rest... In this way you can be able to balance savings and spending
 
It's better to cultivate a good saving, because it always good to have multiple sources income so make sure you don't spend above your limit, we do will to save so to have budget, because it good to have savings.
 
I agree with you .. And you made points by saying this .A person can saving the money with his income.You have to made balance between spending and savings .its compulsory for saving something for our difficult time.Savings must be made by managing spending .
 
It is totally up to your calculations that how much you spend and how much you save if you are not spend extra money then definitely you can do a good savings and savings are important then spendings. Spend only when you need
 
I wouldn't want to balance it because you always have to save a bit of money, but if your income is really on a tight budget, then the perfect way to balance it is by making a spreadsheet and searching foe extremely cheap stuff
 
A person that is financially literate will not live above his means and neither will he live within it...he will live below his means so he can have more means to save and eventually invest..
 
I totally agree with you. But saving should always precede spending. In other words we should always save to spend because that would help a lot to cut down unnecessary spending and lose of money on daily basis and we would always be accountable for our money.
