Imagine you have some money, let’s say $10.
So, let’s say you have some things you really want to buy, like a toy or a video game.
But you also have other important things you need to spend money on.
Like snacks, school supplies, or saving some money for later.
Now you do Budgeting. Great.
Write down all the things you want or need to spend your money on. For example, snacks, toys, books, or saving for something special.
Decide which things are most important to you.
Let’s say you decide to spend $5 on the toy, $2 on snacks, $2 on saving for something special, and $1 on books.
When you go to the store or have a chance to spend your money.

Debt is similar, but instead of toys. It’s when you borrow money from someone or a bank.
And you have to be responsible for paying it back.
