I think there's a simple rule to this, earn more than you spend. Even with the best financial plan if you're not earning up to your monthly expenses there's no way there are would be enough for you to have any reasonable savings. So first step is to fix your finances.

Although you are quite right, but I believe balancing ones spending with salary or saving goes beyond making it financially equal. In order to have a good balance, the money you make per month must outweigh the expenses you incur by more than 50%. That is , if you spend say $100 per don't for expenditure then you should be making minimum of $250 in that same month.
