Loud Budgeting

The Loud budgeting movement pushes individuals to be open and honest about their financial situation and to refuse offers of goods or activities that they cannot afford or do not want to spend their money on. It's a tactic meant to make your financial goals visible and audible to friends and family. The notion is that you should keep to your budget to support your financial goals rather than going beyond to live up to others' expectations.
