2nd house = how you attract money

6th house = how you manage money

8th house = how you spend money

[my-autism-adhd-blog]

Hi, do you maybe have any tips on how to manage money better as an autistic person? I've started to notice that I might be struggling with it, so I'll be glad if you'd share something. Thanks!

Hi there,

I’m quite frugal when it comes to money. I don’t use much unless I need to pay for prescription or anything similar.

Sometimes, if I’ve saved enough, I buy something I really want, like a video game or something.

Here’s some articles I’ve found going into detail/tips on saving money.

[desifemininewoman]

Little Financial Advice

Save. Seriously.

I mean it. College is the perfect time to be a little stingy. Start putting some of your money into savings now. It doesn’t need to be a huge amount, just start. Watching your savings grow will feel so satisfying.

You Don’t Need to Be "Rich" Right Now

I know we tend to feel we need to show that we are so cool and we are rich and we got iphones and papa ke paiso ki car and everything. Do it. Have fun. Spend money a bit irrationally. Buy that super expensive boots that you won't really wear cause they are so uncomfortable. Or that H&m ki dress.

But you know what's the benefit of being in college?

No one expects you to be rich in college. It’s actually socially acceptable to be broke! No one will question you if you say, "I can’t do that, I’m low on cash right now."

Use that excuse religiously. Then put that saved money towards investing on something.

Start Small with Tracking your Spendings

I know you can’t change your spending habits overnight, and that’s okay. So, start by really tracking your expenses. Keep a record of every single rupee you spend. Do this for a month or two and take a look at your patterns.

You’ll start to notice where all that money is going. Trust me—there are always some unnecessary payments and impulse buys creeping in. Understanding your spending habits is the first step in being able to adjust them.

When I started budgeting, these were some of the patterns I found in my spending habits that I knew I could change:

I use to spend a lot on food, especially during exam season. I realized that when I am moody, I spent a lot on chocolates. Plus, I used to do my work last-minute, so I used to see going down to mess from my room as time wasted during my exams. Plus, I don't like the time-consuming process of making food in hostel as much as I love cooking, which is why I would splurge on chips, maggi, chocolates, takeouts, etc.

I used to spent monthly on fast fashion too. This was easily fixable. It was hard but I started saving up on buying good quality clothes.

I used to spent (I still do) a lot with and on my friends. All of us are very kharcheelein people, I would not lie. And when we get together, we come up with crazy ideas and just have to spend money on them. Since we have grown a bit from our first year of college, so spending on drinks, etc is very less now. We also installed Splitwise to keep track of who spends how much.

The point is a lot of our spending is tied to our habits and behaviours. Tracking your money would highlight all these issues and hopefully make you realize where you need to change. All of these issues were easily fixable and with time I did fix them.

Put yourself on budget in the areas where you can

Start putting yourself on a budget, especially in areas like food. For example, I gave myself a strict monthly limit on takeouts—no more, no less. I told myself ki itna hi spend krungi khane per and usse 1rs zyada nahi.

I also knew that controlling my spending with friends was going to be tough, so I chose to set tighter budgets in other areas.

Honestly, there’s no single rule that works for everyone. The 50/30/20 rule sounds great in theory, but for me, it didn’t quite fit the reality of my spending. In college, don’t be too harsh on yourself with your budget—it’s about balance, not perfection.

You know yourself best. Look for the areas where you can make small changes and start there.

If you’re used to spending too much, don’t aim for huge savings right away. Start by saving just 100 rupees a month, and then gradually increase that amount. Setting big goals can make you feel overwhelmed. You might end up feeling bad for not meeting them and then splurge just to make yourself feel better. It’s a cycle you don’t want to get stuck in.

So, start small and build from there. You’ll get there with time.

Use Tools to Help You Track Spending

One game-changer for me was using Splitwise. It helped me and my friends keep track of expenses when we went out. No more confusion about who paid for what or forgetting to pay each other back. Just enter the amount in the app and it does the math for you.

Use Cash Whenever Possible

Try paying in cash instead of UPI. You’ll be surprised how much more you’ll pay attention to your spending when you can physically see the money leaving your wallet. Cash is like a reminder that it's disappearing right in front of you.

Invest, But Start Small

Lastly, invest. I mean, I'd say educate yourself first and then choose how you would want to save your money. I started with Gold Funds and Mutual Funds. And I started small there too. I just started with 100rs going to Gold Fun and 100rs going to Mutual funds. Now, I put 500 monthly to MFs and whenever I get huge payments or any big amount of money, I put 1/3rd of it in MFs too.

The key takeaway: save. That money is yours. The power of compound interest is real—it grows your money over time. And that saved money? It’s your safety net. If you ever mess up or need a quick emergency fund, you’ll have something to fall back on.

Isn't that amazing?

How to Set Up a Simple Filing System for Receipts and Invoices

Keeping track of receipts and invoices is crucial for any business. Without an organized system, important documents can get lost, making tax time stressful and financial tracking difficult. Fortunately, setting up a simple filing system doesn’t have to be complicated. Here’s how you can do it in a few easy steps.

1. Choose a Storage Method

Decide whether you prefer a physical, digital, or hybrid filing system.

Physical System: Use labeled folders, binders, or an expanding file organizer.

Digital System: Scan receipts and invoices and store them in cloud services like Google Drive, Dropbox, or a dedicated accounting software.

Hybrid System: Keep physical copies for tax purposes while maintaining a digital backup.

2. Categorize Your Documents

Sorting receipts and invoices into categories will make retrieval easier.

By Date: Organize documents by month and year.

By Vendor: Keep separate files for each supplier or service provider.

By Expense Type: Group receipts by categories such as office supplies, travel, utilities, and client expenses.

3. Use Consistent Naming Conventions

For digital storage, use a clear and uniform naming system. Example:

YYYY-MM-DD_Vendor_Amount (e.g., 2025-02-10_OfficeDepot_45.00)

4. Set a Regular Filing Schedule

Schedule time each week or month to file receipts and invoices. This habit will prevent document buildup and ensure you stay on top of financial records.

5. Utilize Accounting Software

Many accounting tools, such as QuickBooks, Wave, and FreshBooks, allow you to upload and categorize receipts directly. This automates part of the filing process and ensures everything is stored in one place.

Final Thoughts

An organized filing system for receipts and invoices can save time, reduce stress, and improve financial clarity. Whether you choose a physical, digital, or hybrid approach, consistency is key. Start setting up your system today and enjoy the benefits of hassle-free record-keeping!

Exploring the Maternal and Baby Products Industry: Does Insurance Cover Momcozy?

Hello everyone! I'm excited to share my thoughts on the maternal and baby products industry, particularly focusing on the brand Momcozy. As a new parent, I find it essential to choose the right products for both myself and my baby. Momcozy has been a fantastic brand for me, offering a variety of high-quality products that cater to the needs of mothers and their little ones.

One question I often come across is, 'Does insurance cover Momcozy products?' While it can vary by insurance provider, many plans do offer coverage for certain maternal and baby products. It’s always a good idea to check with your insurance company to see what specific items are covered, as this can help ease the financial burden of purchasing essential products.

I’ve personally found Momcozy’s products to be both functional and stylish, which is a huge plus for me. Their breastfeeding accessories and baby care items are designed with both comfort and practicality in mind.

If you’re on the lookout for reliable maternal and baby products, I highly recommend checking out Momcozy. It’s great to know that there are options available that can also potentially be covered by insurance.

Thank you for reading, and I hope this helps fellow parents in making informed decisions!

Smart Financial Planning for Business Owners

As a small business owner, you understand how important it is to save money — especially during slower seasons when every dirham counts. But while saving is essential, there are key areas where spending money strategically can actually strengthen and grow your business.

At The Accountant, we regularly help business owners make smarter financial decisions — not just to survive, but to scale with confidence.

Here are three smart investments every business owner should consider:

1️⃣ Invest in Your Employees

Your employees are the foundation of your success. Happy, motivated team members are more productive, loyal, and customer-focused. Smart spending on your staff leads to better performance, less turnover, and a stronger company culture.

Consider:

Offering performance-based bonuses or incentives

Providing training and upskilling opportunities

Enhancing benefits and work-life balance

Reviewing and adjusting compensation regularly

Retaining great talent is far more cost-effective than constant rehiring and retraining. And your customers notice consistency — it builds trust and loyalty.

2️⃣ Invest in Your Marketing

Many businesses wait until things slow down to think about marketing — but that’s often too late. Consistent marketing is essential for sustainable growth.

A well-planned marketing strategy helps:

Keep your brand top-of-mind

Generate steady leads

Build long-term customer relationships

It’s important to treat marketing as a priority, not a luxury. At The Accountant, we also help our clients plan their finances so they can invest confidently in growth, including marketing activities — without risking compliance or cash flow.

3️⃣ Invest in Administrative Support

Outsourcing admin tasks might seem like an added expense, but it’s a smart way to save time and prevent mistakes that could cost far more.

You can outsource:

Payroll and bookkeeping

Tax filing and compliance

Invoicing and cash flow tracking

Legal and administrative support

By partnering with experts in these areas — like our team at The Accountant — you reduce stress and focus on doing what you do best: running your business.

💬 Final Thoughts

Yes, saving money is essential. But knowing where and when to spend is what sets successful business owners apart.

By investing in your people, your growth, and your support systems, you’re building a business that’s prepared for tomorrow — not just surviving today.

Unlock Your Financial Independence: Master These Three Critical Numbers

As much as more interesting places become visible as a person enters the door of independence, one secret to hold is using references. It does not involve a load of money or very complicated charts but simple understanding of three numbers; understand the numbers that are most likely to affect any money-related decision you would make. Keep your eyes fixed on those numbers, and the pathway towards wealth is bound to unfold. Read on now, as I will be knitting all this together for you at the end for your future.

Burn Rate: What Are You Burning and Why It Is the Basic Foundation for Financial Independence?

Burn Rate Defined: The Pulse of Your Spending

Your burn rate is your monthly cost of survival. Think of it as a financial footprint - the total sum of money you spend for everything. From rent to coffee, every dollar out of your pocket counts. That number must be known. Without it, you are flying blind as far as money is concerned. 

Breaking Down Your Expenses

To get an idea of the burn rate, divide your expenditure into three classes:

Fixed Costs: Mortgage, rent, insurance payments, expenses for the internet, phone, heat, and electricity.

Variable Costs: These can change — groceries, gas, maybe dining out or entertainment.

Irregular Costs: Relatively minor, infrequent costs such as a car repair.

 They happen on a sporadic basis, but will still need to be included when you count the occurrence of these expenses.

Why Is the Burn Rate Important?

Your burn rate is going to help you determine how much cash reserves you should maintain. Most professionals will suggest having 3-6 months' worth of expenses set aside. Also, this number will determine how quickly you can reach your financial goals. With a lower burn rate, you will need less money in the future. For example, consider two people who earn the same amount. The one who spends less can save more and retire earlier.

Determination of Financial Independence Number via 4% Rule

The Power Behind the 4% Rule

It is the guideline of the vast range of planners that one can safely take 4 percent of its savings every year while in retirement, which ensures that the money lasts for decades. The principle hinges on the premise that investments grow to take care of the retiree and there will be nothing left.

Finding Your Retirement Number 

The goal is to save enough that after retirement, the 4 percent withdrawal each year could take care of your expenses. This is the formula: 

Retirement Number = Annual Expenses x 25

Example: If your yearly expenses are $40,000, then:

$40,000 x 25 = $1,000,000

So, you’d need a million dollars saved to retire comfortably using this rule.

Real-Life Examples

Let's say there are two friends and each of them is earning $80,000 a year. 

Friend A spends $60,000 annually. To retire, they need:

$60,000 x 25 = $1.5 million

Friend B spends only $40,000. Their target:

$40,000 x 25 = $1 million

Main Point: Less Spending Decreased Retirement Goal and Fastened Course to Financial Independence. 

What About Inflation?

This estimate does not include inflation. Your future costs might rise, so recalculate every few years. Creating adjustments thus makes the plan realistic. 

Strategies to Reduce Your Burn Rate and Speed Up Progress 

Big Hits from Small Changes 

So, reducing expenses is the fastest way to bring down the burn rate. Here are some suggestions: 

Cancel unused subscriptions or memberships.

Choose cheaper housing or commute options.

Reduce dining out and entertainment costs.

Pay off debt to decrease ongoing payments.

Increase Your Income 

Trim your cost, then go on to maximize your earnings: 

Start side jobs or freelance work.

Seek promotions or higher-paying roles.

Learn new skills that increase your earning potential.

Invest in assets that generate passive income.

Combining of  Both Strategies

Heavily slash costs while boosting income. This ensures proper savings and realistic goals. Undertake, for example, downsizing the abode while starting a side business.

Speeding up the practice of saving towards achieving a goal

Your Savings?

Savings rate of the highest order.

It’s the proportion of income you save in the year. The higher the savings rate, the faster the savings reach the target. If you save 20 percent, it takes more time than saving 50 percent.

Some useful tips on saving

Automate your savings so money moves out before you spend it.

Cut high-impact expenses first.

Reinvest dividends or interest for more growth.

Keep track of progress to stay motivated.

Importance of Investment Returns

Money grows faster when invested wisely. Increase your wealth over time through contributions and not having all eggs in one basket. Patience and sustainable levels of risk are important.

Putting It All Together: Crafting Your Personal Financial Roadmap

Your Action Plan

Calculate your current burn rate. Track every dollar for a month or two.

Use the 4% rule to find your retirement number. Multiply your annual expenses by 25.

Work on your savings rate. Find ways to save more and invest steadily.

Adjust your lifestyle, reducing unnecessary spending, or find ways to earn more.

Keep Improving

Put your numbers down on record each year. Life changes, so does your plan. Stay flexible, but stay committed to your long-term goals.

Conclusion

When you can master your burn rate, retirement number, and savings rate, you take control of your future. Small changes now can put you in a big winning place later. Focus on just three numbers now, stay disciplined, and watch your wealth grow faster than you thought possible. Start today-tracking your expenses-immediately set your target to take the first step to financial freedom.
