No matter what area of your life you should have an accountability partner...whether spiritual, physically, or in your spending...YES...in your spending. The concept of 'it's my money-I'll spend it the way I want' is the wrong direction to financial success.
Budgeting is difficult and sticking to it is even harder. This is why an accountability partner is so important. Choose wisely when you are opening your finances to someone else. If you are married that partner should be your spouse and if ya'll both struggle with managing money seek our a financial counselor your pastor. If you are single--it's probably not your best friend that you party or shop with. You may choose an older aunt, uncle or co-worker to help you stay financial focused.
