Summer is calling. Your bank account is not. In this cheeky money-chat episode, we’re prepping for sunny plans without the post-holiday financial hangover. We talk budgets that actually work in real life, how to plan your “perfect summer” without pretending you’re on a yacht in Capri, and the one habit that saves you from waking up in September like: Who is Zara and why do they have all my money?
✅ Key takeaways- Build a “perfect summer” calendar first, then price it. Your budget should match your actual plans, not your fantasy life.
- Use the 50/30/20 rule to set a guilt-free fun budget. Your “wants” category is where the Aperols live.
- Prioritize your non-negotiables. Spend on the biggest joy first, then adjust the rest.
- Do weekly or biweekly budget check-ins. Flexibility is allowed. Financial amnesia is not.
- Keep 90% of the fun at 50% of the cost. Picnics, hikes, swims, and free city events can do a lot of heavy lifting.
