- Mortgage or Rent Payments
- Property Taxes
- Home Insurance
- Utilities: Electricity, gas, water, internet, cable, trash removal
- Home Maintenance & Repairs: Unexpected expenses for plumbing, roofing, appliances, landscaping, etc.
- Groceries & Meal Preparation
- Transportation Costs
- Out-of-Pocket Healthcare Expenses
- Social & Recreational Activities
