If you are paid a salary, have the transfer scheduled on the day or the day after you are paid. If you’re a contractor or business owner, try committing a small percentage of each customer payment, such as 5%, into this other account. To begin with, put away a small amount – that won’t hurt. After a while, if you are managing to successfully run your living/operating budget without this money, then you can think about increasing the amount.
