Identifying Money Management Philosophy
Below are key concepts for reading. Details of these concepts are discussed further in the
textbook “Exploring Small Business and Personal Finance” by Yumang, K. L., Chan Pao, T. P.
L., Benito, P.P. Phoenix Publishing House 2016.
As the golden rule of personal finance, you need to save a portion of your allowance or salary
for your future needs. Mathematically, this is expressed as follows.
INCOME-SAVINGS= EXPENSE
INCOME_EXPENSE= SAVINGS
The two equation are one and the same. However, what sets them apart is the mindset that
comes into the situation. In the first equation, savings is thought of as planned expense. That is
why saving is also called “paying yourself first.” In the second equation, it is thought of as a
leftover from expense.
INFLATION happens with the general rise in the prices of goods and commodities. This
occurs when spending increases relative to the supply of goods.
Inflation affects purchasing power. Purchasing power is the amount of goods and services
money can buy.
