[quote=Anonymous]It depends entirely on what’s material to your budget. If you’re multimillionaires, spending $1k doesn’t require any sacrifice or budget relocation. But when I was newly married and broke, having $14 cocktails with friends meant that my spouse couldn’t eat lunch out during the work week. I’d mention anything that require deferred spending for the month, a change in our savings plan, or a withdrawal from our savings account. I’d also mention anything out of the ordinary for us. For example, vet bills, car repair, and clothing expenditures are pretty typical. But if one of us wanted to book plane tickets or buy new furniture, that would merit mentioning.[/quote]
