Fiscal Report: June 2006

Man, I was THIS close to not buying any clothing at all this month. Then I saw a ten dollar messenger bag at Urban Outfitters, (even the sale is on sale!), so it all went to hell. What's worse, I went to another party last night and some girl was like, "Nice bag!" And that's not helping at all.

Also, when you don't commute to work, you save a lot of money on fuel.

With all these massive surpluses, I've clearly overbudged a bit. A wise strategy, because here come some brand new monthly expenses.

NEW MONTHLY EXPENSES

Unlimited Yoga Classes at the Center for Hot Moms: $90 a month
Increase in Health Insurance Premium: $15 a month
Netflix Upgrade to 4 Out at A Time: $12 a month

I don't add new debits to the monthly budget lightly, so rest assured that these are justified. Yoga is a bit pricey, but bear in mind that I attend classes five days a week, and that I can cancel the plan at any time. For comparison's sake, a ten class series at the same studio costs about $110. Netflix is crucial for research, and the four out plan allows me to spend more time watching movies, and less time waiting by my mailbox. And without health insurance, how could I care for all the infants I've fathered out of wedlock?

UNDER BUDGET SPENDING CATEGORIES

Unallocated: $170.00
Dining Out: $105.06
Clothing: $49.50
Auto Fuel: $96.98
Phone: $30.00

Total: $451.51 under budget
