  17. Income and expenditure • Activity 2: Money wise – monthly budgeting card game • See Manage money activity sheet: Money wise – monthly budgeting card game. • Learners cut out the cards that show ways they have earned and spent money, and turn them face down. They play in pairs, turn one card over at a time, and decide where to place it in their monthly budget table. Their challenge is to ensure they: • do not get into debt in any one month • break even at the end of the three months. • This means that they may have to move their cards around, or decide on something they can’t afford to buy to ensure their spending does not exceed their earnings!
