💜6 finance rules to know by age 30💜

tbh nobody ever really teaches you how money works — you just figure it out after a few mistakes 😭

these 6 rules lowkey changed how i handle my money:

• 50/30/20 made budgeting make sense.

• rule of 72 showed me how fast your money can grow when you invest.

• having an emergency fund kept me from maxing credit cards every time life went left.

• the 300 rule made me think long-term — like actually planning for peace later.

• 20/4/10 stopped me from doing too much on a car just to “look up.”

• and the 3x rent rule?? that one keeps me humble 💀

it’s really not about being rich — it’s about being intentional.

once you start understanding money, it stops controlling you 💚

save this for later & send it to someone who’s tryna get right financially this year 🧠
