finances

Does it sometimes feel like your money is just leaving your account left and right as if you have no control over it?  We have bills, emergencies, misc. things to pay for but most of the time it can get overwhelming when you see more coming out than going in.
What helps me is having 2 different bank accounts and a credit card.  Having this may be more to handle but it keeps me organized.
My credit card is for gas and big emergencies.  I fill up every week and a half and barely have any big emergencies.  Therefore, I am able to pay back on the card every month that helps build my credit a little bit.  Don’t use it if you don’t have to.
One of my bank accounts are for big bills.  This one is the card I receive my paycheck through, pay rent and other bills so I have a set schedule of when payments are coming out and can monitor and forecast how my account will look at the end of the month.
Lastly, my other bank account/debit card is for my everyday spending whether it’s food, groceries, etc.  I use this card for everything else so it’s easier to monitor the little things I do since there aren’t little purchases and huge purchases to look at all on one account.
It can get overwhelming when you see so much going at once so make sure to split it up.  Trust me, it cuts down on my anxiety and feeling like I don’t have a hold over my finances.  This puts me in control and organized.
