Based on the information provided, here’s a personalized financial plan:

Income Assessment:

Total Monthly Income: $7,500 ($4,000 from Partner A and $3,500 from Partner B) Expense Breakdown:

Fixed Monthly Expenses: $2,100 (Rent, Groceries, Utilities, Car payment) Debt Repayment:

Student Loan: Allocate a portion of your income to pay down the $15,000 student loan. Consider paying more than the minimum payment to clear this debt faster. Emergency Savings:

With a concern about not having enough for emergencies, aim to save 3 to 6 months’ worth of living expenses. This fund can cover unforeseen circumstances like job loss or medical emergencies. Zero-Based Budgeting:

Use the zero-based budgeting method to allocate every dollar of your income to a category (expenses, savings, debt repayment). Savings and Investments:

Target Savings Rate: Strive to save 20% of your income, which amounts to $1,500 monthly. Home Down Payment: Start a separate savings account for your home down payment. Given your goal to buy a home in 5 years, determine the amount you need to save each month to meet this goal. Retirement: Continue to contribute to retirement accounts. Consider consulting a financial advisor to ensure your retirement savings are on track. Annual Vacations:

Vacation Fund: Allocate a portion of your savings towards your annual vacation fund. This will allow you to enjoy vacations without straining your finances. Discretionary Spending:

Addressing Disagreements: Since there are disagreements on discretionary spending, establish a monthly discretionary spending amount for each partner. This can help manage spending while allowing for personal choice. Financial Education:

Enhance your basic understanding of budgeting and saving by exploring resources, perhaps from inspirational individuals like Dave Ramsey. Regular Financial Review:

Conduct regular financial reviews to track your progress, adjust your budget, and ensure you’re on the path to achieving your financial goals. This plan balances debt repayment, savings, and spending, aligned with your financial goals and preferences. By adhering to this plan and reviewing it regularly, you’re well on your way to achieving financial harmony and securing your future together.
