What to Focus On

  • Family income is the total income from all sources.
  • Sources include salary, rent, bank interest, and savings from skills.
  • Free facilities also save money and add to effective income.
  • Expenditure means money spent from income.
  • It is money taken out of the family budget.
  • Food, housing, education, and transport are major expenditure heads.
  • Savings are money kept aside for future use.
  • Savings help during emergencies and important life needs.
  • To save, expenditure must be less than income.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Only salary counts as family income.

Savings through skills are not income because no cash is received.

Free medical facilities, free education, and rent free accommodation are not connected to family income.
