However, no matter what day the hogs go to market or what the price will be, each business owner needs to provide for groceries and some basic necessities for his/her family each week. Each month, transfer a regular establish- ed amount from your farm business account to a separate account for family expenses. Family living expenses are paid with tax dollars. They inc(nde food, clothing, recrea- tion, household supplies, gifts and all other personal items. Consult with your family to establish what your average monthly living costs are. Remember to include repairs and upkeep, vacation and savings in that monthly total. Then you won't be tempted to tap the farm business account for that new microwave oven or a trip to Florida. Save for those items from your family living account. Family living expenses may seem a small proportion of the total business budget; a good manager, will control that cost just as he/she will control feed costs or equipment costs. Farming is a business, not only a way of life. Your business exists to benefit your family. Organize your family living spen- ding so all fan ily members benefit.
