Etymology
Fiscally comes from the Latin word fiscus, which meant a 'purse' or the money kept by a ruler or government. The same root is in fiscal, and a helpful way to remember it is to think of the public 'purse'. So, to act fiscally is to act in a way that concerns money, budgets, or government revenue.
