You Need A Budget Novels & Stories

“A festival.” “Yes. A festival.” I planted my hands on his desk. “You said I have a budget for charitable endeavors. I want to use it. All of it, if necessary. These people deserve better than what they’re getting.” “Do you have any idea how much something like that would cost?” Liam asked. “How much planning it would take?”

"So, these are the general ideas that were given out, and how many people considered each one. It seems both the options of food and sports are very popular with everyone." "Do you think we could do both?" asks Hala to Thames. Thames thinks for a moment looks to Tula who says after glancing at a paper, "It can be done. It'll be a tight budget." "What is our budget?" asks Syl. "Each class has $150. We can ask for additional support, but the remaining funds are in high demand and it's on a basis of who needs what first. And the senior and Junior classes get priority over us."

He feigns horror. “ Your list is shit okay. All these things will only cost you double and will not even last a month.” I snatched the list from his hand and threw it in the dustbin. “ What the fuck Red! Why did you do that?” he rolled his eyes at me. “ We are making a new list.” I ignore the nickname. “ I..um, Actually I am tight on budget.” embarrassment colors his cheek. “ So what. Tell me the budget. I am James, handling budget is what we do.” I nudge his stomach with my elbow because that’s my reach.

Aiden asked. "Yes, a cap - a limit. In that way, you can learn to manage your spending," Liam proposed. "How does twenty thousand dollars a year sound? You can bill anything to Uncle Liam as long as it does not exceed twenty thousand dollars a year. That should be more than enough for your age, right buddy?" "Twenty thousand dollars a year?" Aiden said. He frowned, thinking; his finger rested on his chin. "Woah!" Aiden said. "I went over the budget last year!"

“That’s fine. When do you want to have it?” “Your birthday is in two days and then next week we have the table meeting. Probably need to do it before Tatum gets too far along. We can have it a week after the table meeting.” “Okay. Brittany can show me what you guys have in storage and we can go from there.” “Or, hear me out…. order what you want for the theme.” “That’s extra money that doesn’t need to get spent.” I pushed back. “I’ll give you a budget to buy stuff.”

She asked, and I nodded. "Yeah, but the total budget is spread among infrastructure, health services, and education... So the funding is limited, and the needs are endless..." I said, Stella giggling beside me and myself getting annoyed by my daughter's endless questioning, whom I now must treat as an equal due to her status as Queen of the Elves. "But are we separating a contingency budget for a major catastrophe?" She asked, staring at the budget, and now David snickered. "Every realm is responsible for it..." I quickly replied.

"It's as good as I know about." "Ok. Let's go to the store, order the furniture and give them your notice. No. Let's go get you a ring first. Then we can go to the store. We also need to go to Costco for all the stuff we need in the house. We need linens. I give up! You can make a list and I'll drive and pay. You do like shopping?" "Not for everything but since I sense the budget isn't in nickels and dimes that will help."

I was not going to let them carry out such blatant sabotage! After I got home, I took out my title deed. In order to buy this house, I had used up all my savings. I had even used my parents’ retirement funds. It was a testimony of my ten years of hard work. So what if I took a chance on it? Harry and Lily did not know that from the moment I set my mind, I would be the one dictating the game rules.

While your idea is a little controversial, I believe it is likely to be very profitable and I trust you to manage it appropriately. I am aware that ventures like this generally do cost money, particularly when you’re just starting out. Keeping this in mind, if you were to send me a summary of what you have planned and your proposed budget, I am happy to assist with funding within reason. I look forward to hearing your future plans, Regards, -M*

I asked. Abigail slumped in a chair in front of Cory and me. “Well, that's the problem. It is impossible… but it's a huge company. More than a few departments have their own independent budgets.
