Know your numbers first
Before making a plan, record your income and expenses for a full month without changing your habits. The aim is not to judge yourself, but to understand your starting point. Small, forgotten purchases can add up.
Eight short lessons to help improve your relationship with money. Read one each day and put it into practice in your Beezatak plan.
Before making a plan, record your income and expenses for a full month without changing your habits. The aim is not to judge yourself, but to understand your starting point. Small, forgotten purchases can add up.
Allocate 50% to needs such as housing, food, transport, and bills; 30% to wants such as dining out, entertainment, and shopping; and 20% to savings and debt repayment. If that is not possible yet, start by saving 5% and gradually increase it.
Before buying, ask yourself: Do I need it this week? Do I already have an alternative? Will it still matter in a month? Waiting 48 hours before a non-essential purchase can help reduce impulse spending.
Set aside your savings on payday rather than waiting to see what is left at the end of the month. An automatic transfer can turn an intention into a consistent habit.
Aim to save three to six months of essential expenses in an accessible account. An emergency fund can help cover unexpected costs without borrowing.
Before borrowing, calculate the monthly payment as a share of your income. A useful budgeting guideline is to keep total payments below 40%, ideally below 30%, while considering your own circumstances. Prioritize higher-interest debt.
A subscription costing 3 BHD per month adds up to 36 BHD per year. Review your subscriptions every three months and cancel those you no longer use.
Spend 15 minutes at the end of each month comparing your plan with actual spending. Regular adjustments matter more than a perfect plan you never follow.
Record every expense, however small, without changing your habits.
