Here, you only need to plan yourself accordingly and get the best out of life.

So how can you make ends meet with a monthly salary of Sh20,000?

All you need to do is simply follow these tricks:

1. Budget for everything

The first thing you should do after earning the salary is immediately budget for all the basic needs. If you normally commute to and from work, set aside transport money. 

Other necessary wants like food, rent and others should also be included in your budget. Remember you aren't earning six figures, it is 20k and thus don't be extravagant. 

After budgeting for everything, you can put the remaining amount of money into other use.

 2. Start a side hustle

There are so many side hustles in Nakuru that you can venture into. The known hustles include online writing or what is known as academic writing. Just buy an account and start writing.

 You will find that at the end of the month, you have close to Sh10, 000 from your side hustle alone. This amount seems to be a lot and in fact you will be able to pay your rent and cater for other necessary expenses. 

3. Live within your means

If you want to live within your means, you have to know what your means are. Spend your money according to your income.

Don't live in an expensive rental house to show off. Honestly, you will not make it. Get affordable rental house that is close to your work place. You will find that you won't spend a lot on fare.
