At the end of the day, making some sacrifices can't be avoided, but you can try getting some sidegig, or side hustle.

So you mean either way I have to sacrifice more to earn more?

A little goes a long way. Even if your income is small, there are still easy ways to save and grow your money without sacrificing much. First, start by setting aside a small amount each week or month, even if it's a hundred shillings. Develop the habit of saving before you spend.

Second, avoid unnecessary spending. Instead of buying things on impulse, ask yourself if you really need them. Use a shopping list and look for deals or alternatives. You can also sell unused items at home and increase your income a little.

Finally, find easy ways to increase your income such as small online jobs, selling household goods or investing a little in savings and loans groups. The important thing is to have a plan and discipline. Money grows when it is valued and managed wisely.

I hired an executive assistant to help me with trading of corporate stocks. She is a solo parent with 2 teenage daughters. I praise her for her wisdom in managing her finances before I gave her a job. She was selling food stuff for delivery. Earning small but it helped her handle the daily overhead in her household.

Sure. With determination, the many of us with little incomes can manage to carter for their everyday expenses.

You can achieve that by tracking every penny coming in and going out so you know where it goes. Moreso, prioritize needs over wants, and pay yourself first by saving even 5 percent. Avoid debt for non essentials. Cook at home, buy in bulk, and use free tools for budgeting. Small, consistent habits matter more than a big income.

First and foremost, you must live below your means. If you earn $1,000 USD per month and have $900 USD in expenses, it's normal that you won't have enough because you're managing your money terribly. Ideally, you should spend a maximum of $500 USD, which would be half. If you can't spend that little per month for everything, then a maximum of $700 USD. Use the remaining $300 USD for savings and another part for investments. Regarding how to spend only that amount, that is, $500 or $700, you must write everything down. Every month when you get paid, you must write down your expenses and set the money aside to avoid spending stupidly on things you don't really need.
