Budgets Are Sexy (2026)

If you care about budgets sexy, this guide gets straight to the point. We break down what actually matters, skip the fluff, and show you how to put it to work today.

Key Takeaways

• You and a friend are splitting the check right down the middle, and it’s time for you to pointer.
• Do you a) Discuss the amount to leave with your friend?
• Or b) Pointer whatever you normally would and leave it be?
• He felt tipping was personal and wanted to leave whatever he deemed appropriate - which, of course, drove Larry all kinds of crazy.

What to Know About Budgets Sexy

Well, if you’re Larry David from Curb Your Enthusiasm, you try and force your lunch date to pointer exactly the same as you are :) A recent episode had him and Jason Alexander (aka George Costanza) fighting over the amount to pointer on a meal they agreed to split down the middle. Worth noting: larry suggests they pointer the same amount so that one doesn’t leave a lesser pointer than the other (making that person look bad), but Jason wasn’t having it.

You can see a clip of it here on youtube (begin at 2:02). It’s a rather interesting predicament though, and oddly enough I was put in this EXACT same scenario 2 days after watching it!

How Budgets Sexy Really Works

More importantly, i couldn’t believe it. After a friend and I had lunch, we decided to split the bill right down the middle and she looks up and goes, “Do you think we should leave the same pointer?

It would look pretty weird if we didn’t, right?” Haha…I was dying, and of course told her about the reveal. I don’t think she found it as exciting as I did (we’re not all PF addicts), but we did agree to leave similar amounts…or at least we said we would ;)Is there a right or wrong answer here though?

Getting the Most From Budgets Sexy

Remember that just like with everything in finance it all comes down to your own comfort level. I personally enjoy talking openly about money & tipping as I find it kills the awkwardness and allows people to share their own view points (like my 20% tipping rule), but not everyone does.

When that’s the case, it’s typically best to leave aspects alone and do your own aspect. But what do you guys think about it?

Tips That Make a Difference

As a rule, are you cool with splitting the pointer evenly if you’ve already done so with the bill? Or do you prefer to do your own aspect and not discuss it?

In any case, PLEASE don’t be like Larry David ;) He’s a funny man to watch on screen, but my damn he’s annoying sometimes. (Visited 12 times, 1 visits right now) Get blog posts automatically emailed to you!
