    My income dropped to unemployment benefits and my bills have not changed. I worked as a delivery driver before this. I am nervous about the credit card minimums. What helped the most?

    A simple budget with three columns, fixed, flexible and optional, made decisions faster.

    Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $300 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.
