<prompt> Human: I have a problem reddit. My wife and I make decent money. I bring home 1300 every 2 weeks and my wife brings home at least 1000. Our problem is that we dont get payed on the same week. We have to pay bills of course, so every week it seems like week literally dont have anything left. I forgot to mention we have 2 kids. We try to save but something always come up i.e. car brakes down or the someone is taking something out twice. How do you guys do it? Its seems like everyone around us have such more. Any advice?  <response>: Your post lacks details. I assume its a budget problem. Start by editing your post to include your expenses, financial goals, and retirement status.
