First, let us know what is this 50-30-20 rule.
This 50-30-20 rule is for savings which was started by US Senate Elizabeth Warren. In his book 'All Your Worth: The Ultimate Lifetime Money Plan', published in 2006, he wrote that, under this rule, he divided his salary into three parts, which include need, want, and savings.
Understand the first 50
According to Elizabeth in the 50-30-20 rule, 50 means that you should spend 50 percent of your income on things that are very important for you and without them, your work can get stuck. These include house rent, ration, electricity bill, education, EMI health insurance, etc.
Know now 30
In the formula of 50-30-20, 30 percent means that you can spend this percentage of money on your desires, which you can also avoid. But they make you happy. Like shopping, going to watch a movie, eating out, etc.
Focus on the 20 at the end
At the same time, in the 50-30-20 rule, 20 percent means that you should save this much portion of your income. Like- for the future, emergency fund, for children's education, for children's marriage, etc. Hopefully, now you know how you can save under this rule.
