Good money management involves you having control over your money - not the other way around! And budgeting plays a key role in that process. Even careful spenders can find themselves sliding into debt - sometimes due to unforeseen circumstances, like the loss of a job. Often though, people find themselves in financial hot water simply because they are spending more money than they earn.

The best way to prevent - and deal with, credit problems, is to develop good money habits. Budgeting encourages us to do just that. It is the only way you will know both where your money goes each pay period, and where you can cut back.
