Añadido: 2026-05-27

[00:00:00]It's the end of the month, and as a corporate lawyer in London, 135,000 pounds [music] just landed in my account. Here's how it all breaks down.

[00:00:07]First, the bills. 12,000 pounds for my Mayfair penthouse, then utilities, phone, internet, [music] and legal subscriptions. All together, just over 13,200 pounds gone right away. Next, lifestyle expenses. About 6,000 pounds on client dinners and private clubs, plus a driver, [music] personal assistant, and my trainer. And by the time grooming, tailoring, and wine deliveries are added, it's closer to 18,000 pounds total. Then, [music] the debts. Student loans, credit cards, and the Aston Martin lease for about 8,000 pounds all together. Finally, savings and investments. 5,000 pounds [music] into high-interest savings, some into private equity and crypto, and the rest across index funds. [music] In total, just over 16,000 pounds set aside this month. That leaves me with roughly 70,000 pounds [music] clear money I can actually enjoy guilt-free. Without my budget template, I'd have no idea where any of this goes, but tracking every pound keeps me sharp and makes the long hours worth it. If you're earning well, but still wondering where it all goes, comment the word budget, and I'll send you the exact template I use.
