The 50-30-20 Budget Rule for Beginners
Lucas and Luna break down the classic 50-30-20 budgeting rule — 50% of after-tax income for needs, 30% for wants, 20% for savings and debt. They walk through a concrete example using a $50,000 annual salary, discuss where the rule works and where it stumbles (think high-rent cities), and offer a simple two-jar alternative for absolute beginners. Plus: how to automate the split so you don't have to think about it. No apps, no envelopes — just three numbers and a checking account.
