One month you're paid CA$8,000, the next CA$1,000. Treat your bank balance as your income and you'll overspend in the good months and panic in the quiet ones. Pay yourself a salary instead.
How it works
- Holding pot: every payment lands here first.
- Tax and reserve come off first: your tax set-aside % and a reserve for the business, before you pay yourself.
- Suggested pay: based on what you've actually had available over the last three months, and never more than the pot can cover. Or set a fixed salary.
- Buffer in months: tells you to hold your pay when the buffer's low, and to give yourself a raise when it's full.
- Tax pot tracker with your payment dates (March, June, September and December).
- Spend plan: a personal budget built on your salary, not your best month.
