Back home, his family was really happy especially his wife who manages a store
which earns P12,000 monthly. Having a regular salary from work and an additional
income from the store of his wife enable them to support the needs of the family.
They were able to live in a big and comfortable house, buy enough food, and wear
clothes in fashion. They also send their children in a private school, go to mall once
in a while, buy gadgets and jewelry and at the same time save money in the bank for
the future needs such as emergency cases like hospitalization and recreation during
holidays.

16
What is It
A budget is the amount of money one sets aside for planned expenses. It’s a plan
indicating how much money will be spent or allocated during a particular period.
Budgeting serves as a guide on the wise use of family resources. It is based on the
system by which wages or salaries are received and spent by itemizing the family’s
needs with the corresponding amount of money needed to meet them. If income is
wisely budgeted, family’s goals are met.
The family’s budget is allocated with respect to these two basic needs:
Basic and social needs:
Basic needs are the things that people can’t live without. These includes enough
food, descent clothing, and secured shelter. Education is also considered a basic
need because it’s an important qualification when you are looking or seeking a job.
Social needs are anything from education, sports, celebration, travel, and leisure for
our fulfilment, esteem, and self-actualization. Examples of social needs are social
and moral obligations such as birthdays, baptism, etc., family activities, and school
affairs.
A family budget maybe different from one family to another due to family size and
composition, family values and standards of living. Some families prefer or choose to
spend more on food, others on clothing and still others on education. The family
members’ own values and preferences influence their priorities.
