I am trying to make a new budget (new year new budget and all that!)
How much money does your household have left over per month, after you have paid for all the essentials?
By essentials I mean rent/mortgage, utility bills, council tax, running car, transport to work, childcare, supermarket shopping, mobile phone etc
I am not counting stuff like buying new clothes, going to the hairdressers, gym membership, going out to dinner etc as essentials.
