CashflowyKnows your numbersCan I afford to hire a VA this month?
yes, but only for a small/limited VA budget this month.
Snapshot
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Revenue | $12,000 |
| Expenses | $8,000 |
| Net profit | $4,000 |
| Tax reserve needed | $800 |
| Remaining after tax reserve | $3,200 |
Since your tax savings were $300 behind, I’d first catch that up.
Safe hiring view
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Profit after tax reserve | $3,200 |
| Less tax catch-up needed | $300 |
| Estimated available cushion | $2,900 |
That does not mean you should spend all $2,900. You still need to protect cash flow, owner’s pay, and upcoming bills.
Recommendation
You could likely afford a part-time VA trial, such as:
I would not commit to a full-time VA yet based on this example. A safer move would be to start with a capped VA budget of around $750-$1,000 this month, then reassess next month based on revenue and profit.
