Students Ke Liye Paisa Manage Kaise Kare Jab Income Kam Ho Aur Kharch Zyada Lagte Hon?
Seedha jawab: budget banao, kharch track karo, income ke chhote source dhoondo, aur sabse pehle apni soch badlo.
Agar aap student ho aur har mahine ye soch ke tension mein rehte ho ki “paisa kahan chala gaya?” — toh aap bilkul akela nahi ho. Main bhi wahi student tha jo month ke 10 tareekh ke baad sirf ₹20 wallet mein leke hostel ke mess ka menu ghurta rehta tha.
Ye article koi textbook gyaan nahi hai. Ye meri asli journey hai — galtiyon, guilt, late-night anxiety, aur phir dheere-dheere control paane ki. Agar aap student ho, toh shayad is kahani mein aap khud ko pehchan loge.
Mera Turning Point: Jab ₹3,200 Udd Gaye Aur Samajh Aaya “Problem Paisa Nahi, Main Hoon”
College ka second year tha. Papa ne mahine ke ₹5,000 bheje the — mess fee alag. Mujhe laga “kaafi hain”.
First week: doston ke saath pizza
Second week: online sale
Third week: birthday treat
Fourth week: empty wallet + full anxiety
Us din main washroom ke bahar baith kar seriously soch raha tha — “Main adult hoon ya sirf bada hua bachcha?”
Yahin se meri samajh badli
Problem paisa kam hona nahi tha.
Problem thi:
- bina soche kharch karna
- kisi ko “no” na keh paana
- aur ye maanna ki paisa manage karna sirf ameer logon ka kaam hai
Students Paisa Kyun Manage Nahi Kar Paate? Sachchai Jo Koi Nahi Batata
1. Hume kabhi sikhaya hi nahi gaya
School mein algebra sikha, par budget banana nahi.
Result? Pehla income ya pocket money — aur seedha galtiyan.
2. “Enjoy your college life” ka pressure
Instagram bolta hai: trips, cafes, parties
Reality bolti hai: UPI balance insufficient
3. Emotional spending
Bore ho? → order food
Sad ho? → shopping
Happy ho? → celebration
Main bhi ye sab karta tha. Paisa emotions ka shikar ban jata tha.
Actually, Government of India ka National Financial Literacy Mission bhi ye maanta hai ki paisa manage karna ek life skill hai — jo jitni jaldi seekhi jaaye, utni zindagi easy hoti jaati hai.
Students Ke Liye Paisa Manage Karne Ka Sabse Simple Formula (Jo Maine Late Seekha)
Main koi finance guru nahi hoon. Main bas ek student hoon jo gir ke seekha.
Mera formula tha:
Income – Savings = Expense ❌
Income – Savings = Kharch karne ka paisa ✅
Rule simple hai:
- Pehle thoda sa save karo (₹300 bhi chalega)
- Jo bache, usme jeeyo
Is ek change ne meri poori financial life badal di.
Step 1: Apna Paisa Track Karna Seekho (Bina Judgement Ke)
Main pehle sochta tha “mujhe yaad hai maine kahan kharch kiya”
Spoiler: yaad nahi hota
Maine kya kiya?
- Ek simple notebook li
- Har kharch likhne laga
- chai ₹10
- recharge ₹239
- momos ₹40
1 hafte baad shock
₹300 sirf snacks mein!
Tab samjha — awareness hi power hai.
Ye sirf meri personal learning nahi hai — National Centre for Financial Education (NCFE) bhi yahi recommend karta hai ki paisa manage karna tracking se hi start hota hai, chahe amount kitna bhi chhota kyun na ho.
Aap kya kar sakte ho?
- Notebook ya free app
- Sirf likho, judge mat karo
- 7 din baad pattern khud dikhega
Step 2: Student Budget Banana (Jo Reality Mein Follow Ho Sake)
Mera pehla budget bilkul fail hua.
Kyuki main hero ban gaya tha — “is month sirf ₹500 kharch karunga”
Galti yahin hoti hai
Budget punishment nahi hota.
Budget permission hota hai — sahi jagah kharch karne ki.
Mera practical student budget
- 50% → zaroori cheezein (food, travel)
- 30% → fun (movies, bahar ka khana)
- 20% → savings / emergency
Agar income kam hai, percentage adjust karo. Principle mat chhodo.
Step 3: “Sab Kar Rahe Hain” Syndrome Se Bahar Aao
Mere dost:
- cafe ja rahe
- branded shoes le rahe
- trip plan kar rahe
Main bhi jaana chahta tha.
Par mere paas paisa nahi tha.
Sach jo mujhe late samajh aaya
Unka paisa ≠ mera paisa
Unki family situation ≠ meri situation
Confidence ka real matlab
“No” kehna jab zaroori ho.
Mainne jab pehli baar bola:
“Iss baar skip kar raha hoon”
Kisi ne judge nahi kiya.
Par mujhe self-respect mili.
Step 4: Students Ke Liye Extra Income – Chhoti Shuruaat, Badi Seekh
Maine socha tha earning sirf job se hoti hai. Galat.
Meri pehli earning: ₹800
College ke junior ko maths padhayi.
Feeling? Powerful.
Student ke liye realistic options
- Tuition / doubt solving
- Freelance writing / designing
- College ke andar part-time kaam
- Online micro-tasks
Paise se zyada important tha:
“Main khud kama sakta hoon” ka confidence
Step 5: Emergency Fund – Jab Zindagi Surprise De
Ek baar papa bimar ho gaye.
Paise ghar bhejne pade.
Agar savings nahi hoti — main toot jata.
Emergency fund ka matlab
- Ye paisa kharch ke liye nahi hota
- Ye mental peace ke liye hota hai
Student ho? ₹500–₹1000 se shuru karo.
Slow hai, par strong hai.
Aage chal kar jab savings aur investments ki baat aati hai, SEBI ka investor awareness program students ko bina risk ke basic financial understanding develop karne mein help karta hai.
Step 6: Paisa Sirf Number Nahi, Emotional Cheez Hai
Main paisa waste karta tha kyuki:
- mujhe guilt hota tha
- main insecure tha
- main impress karna chahta tha
Jab maine ye accept kiya — tab control aaya.
Self-question jo sab badal deta hai
“Main ye cheez isliye le raha hoon kyuki mujhe zaroorat hai…
ya sirf feel better hone ke liye?”
Agar answer second ho — ruk jao.
Step 7: Student Life Mein Financial Discipline = Freedom
Log sochte hain discipline boring hota hai.
Mere liye discipline = tension-free neend
Aaj:
- Mujhe pata hota hai paisa kahan ja raha hai
- Mujhe ghar se extra maangne ki sharam nahi
- Mujhe future ka darr kam lagta hai
Aur ye sab student life mein seekhne ki wajah se.
Real-Life Example: Do Students, Do Alag Zindagi
Student A
- bina track kiye kharch
- credit pe jeena
- final year mein stress
Student B (Main)
- thoda track
- thoda save
- thoda earn
Difference intelligence ka nahi tha.
Difference habits ka tha.
Common Galtiyan Jo Students Paisa Manage Karte Time Karte Hain
- “Kal se start karunga”
- “Abhi toh student hoon”
- “Savings baad mein”
Sach?
Student life hi best time hai seekhne ka.
Students Ke Liye Paisa Manage Karna Sirf Paisa Bachana Nahi Hai
Ye seekh hai:
- decision lena
- responsibility lena
- future ke liye ready hona
Mujhe kaash koi pehle bolta:
“Paisa sambhalna seekh loge, toh zindagi sambhal jaayegi.”
