A Vanguard video (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1nprZjV_6FM) refers to 4 budgeting methods

  1. the envelope method
  2. the pay yourself first method
  3. 50/30/20 method
  4. zero based budget method

Which one is your favourite?

Zero based budgeting for me, though I only discovered the method I came up with myself already had an established name.

To me it’s simply the most straightforward approach.
