Bum Economics 2

The past two months, June and July, saw a major improvement on my finances. I obtained a regular source of income, resumed my prepaid loading side business and one newsletter gig.

What gives me joy though was I able to limit my expenses just like I planned here. Considering the increase in transportation fares, I think I reached a personal milestone in my finances.

From a daily expenses average of 180 pesos in April and May, I cut back my expenses to a 130 pesos in June and July. Not riding FX or shuttle services really made a big difference. Of course, no movies and limited eating in fastfood chains also helped.

Sadly, I noticed a relapse after I updated my daily expenses record a while ago. For the first eleven days of August, I already spent 500 pesos more compared to the same period in June & July. No wonder, my daily expenses average is back into the 180 range.

The coming two weeks, projects more spending that I doubt if I can repeat what I did in the two previous months. Another thing not going for me is that my main source of income is about to stop. I really need to look for other income streams.

Haaaay..... I need to monitize my blogs soon.
