Exemple concret
Needs — about 50%$1,600
Wants — about 30%$960
Savings & extra debt — about 20%$640
Needs: housing, utilities, basic groceries, transport to work, insurance, minimum debt payments. Wants: dining, streaming, upgrades, hobbies. Savings lane: emergency fund, retirement, extra debt payments.
High-cost cities push needs past 50% — keep the lanes, change the numbers, and protect the savings lane hardest (shrink it last, restore it first).
