Hi,
When doing the budget how do you figure a monthly amount for income when the income is never the same?
I get paid every 2 weeks and my husband gets paid weekly but the amounts, especially mine, vary form paycheck to paycheck.
Also, we tithe off our gross and that varies as well.
I need help with this.
Thanks

Hello There:

If both you and your husband have been at the same jobs for a significant amount of time one thing that you'll could do is take your total incomes for the last 12 months and do a monthly average. This should give you both a pretty good overall budget amount that should be pretty precise. Hope that helps.
