In the next section, we will work on establishing a personal budget using a monthly
income of $804.00, the approximate amount you would earn each month working 40
hours a week at $7.50 an hour. Before you fill out the complete budget below, you will
need to complete the individual item sections and place the “final amounts” in the
appropriate labeled box on the “My Personal Budget” page.
NOTE: It might be helpful to use a calculator on this next
section. If you haven’t used one before, ask your social
worker, foster parent, or staff to teach you.
