This year I made something I call a “friend” budget. Being a bootstrapped founder, I try really hard to save as much money as possible, and sometimes it feels wasteful spending any amount. My friend budget is a weekly budget where I’m allowed to spend $X with friends. Either with my friends or on them. The amount is a good balance between being low enough that it feels like reasonable spending, and slightly in my splurge zone, so I don’t miss out on activities. Another thing it’s helped me do is prioritize more time with friends, and see them more often. It’s very good for my health, at what I consider a low cost!
