Finance Rule #02
The 50-30-20 Rule
Allocate 50% of your income to needs, 30% to wants, and 20% to savings and investments.
"Simple. Powerful. Almost nobody follows it."
The 50-30-20 rule gives you a clear framework without micromanaging every rupee. Needs are things you cannot avoid — rent, groceries, utilities, EMIs. Wants are choices — dining out, Netflix, vacations. The 20% to savings is non-negotiable.
