Budgeting and saving for a sound financial future
Babson urges weekly income set aside for budgeting and saving to avoid a life of debt. He argues a family of four with 5009 dollars after taxes should cap living costs around 50 percent, with 43 percent for food and clothing and 39 percent for housing and transport, recommending half of savings into life insurance and half into savings. He warns against overspending and credits the need for discipline.
