In this video, I budget my first paycheck of May 2022 using YNAB, my preferred budgeting application. I’m finally taking steps to invest and fully-fund my Roth IRA with the money I had available this paycheck. I’ve been trying to be a little more lenient with spending on myself after spending years putting tight constraints on my spending habits.

May 2022 YNAB Budget With Me

Welcome to my May 2022 YNAB budget with me. I’m excited to share with you my budgeting system and how I’m allocating my funds this month. In this budget update, I will be focusing on my funding for my Fidelity Roth IRA and my paycheck 1.

Funding Fidelity Roth IRA

One of my financial goals is to max out my Roth IRA contribution each year. This month, I will be allocating $500 towards my Fidelity Roth IRA. I use YNAB (You Need A Budget) to track this goal and ensure I don’t overspend in other categories.

To make the contribution, I’ll simply transfer the $500 from my checking account to my Roth IRA account through Fidelity’s website. This contribution will help me grow my retirement savings and take advantage of the tax benefits of a Roth IRA.

Paycheck 1

My first paycheck of the month is here, and it’s time to allocate my funds. After covering my fixed expenses such as rent, utilities, and insurance, I have $1,500 left to allocate towards my other spending categories.

Here’s how I’m allocating my funds this month:

– Groceries: $250
– Restaurants/bars: $150
– Personal care: $100
– Entertainment: $100
– Shopping: $500
– Travel: $200
– Miscellaneous: $100

I use YNAB to track my spending in each category, and the budgeting software acts as a guide to ensure I don’t overspend. It’s a great way to stay on top of my finances and ensure I’m working towards my financial goals.

Conclusion

That’s it for my May 2022 YNAB budget update. By allocating funds towards my Fidelity Roth IRA and tracking my spending using YNAB, I’m confident that I’m on track to reach my financial goals. Budgeting can seem daunting, but with the right tools and mindset, it can be a fun and rewarding process.
