Good day everyone
Recently, I didn't have a permanent work, my husband has a regular job for 7 years now. As I recall our life last year, we seldom visit a shopping center, because we don't have enough budget to buy for something. Staying on the right track, can be something hard for us , because our monthly income was not that sufficient

enough.But, what we are doing right now, is that, every payday, we don't cash out all of his salary. Instead, we just withdraw an amount which is enough for our weekly food and allowance for kids.
This is to avoid spending money to something that is not necessary for the moment. We only prioritize our foods, and the kids needs for school.Sometimes, I do have an extra work, like cleaning a house of a friend , or washing their laundries, I can also helped our daily expenses, without touching the remaining money on the bank. I grabbed every kind of job whatever it is, as long as legal. Maybe I was tired with lots of rejections that I received before for not having a degree. Every opportunity that comes to me was like a precious gold that I should always treasure.Budgeting, and prioritizing things helped us day by day. We aimed to saved money every month for the rainy days of our life.
I don't have a charity involvement yet, but we gave a part of our money to the church, a love offering.It also been used to helped the needy, someone's who have an illness.Lately, we have an opportunity to helped our friend when his son got sick, though our group chat, we are being informed by our friends.Helping someone, through a charity or with our own initiative to extend an amount or any way possible that we can, is really good. Someone's out there might be in hardship nowadays, but, if there is an opportunity to be a part of a charity work, I'm willing to do be with it.Actually, when we lend a hand, it's not necessary to informed the people around us, my point is we did it from the heart.
Thanks to @kerrislravenhill for the questions.
