I'm a single 18 year old...haha I'm not like most my age. I wanna know how to budget and know what I need to spend to live. And FUN is never bad we all like doing stuff to enjoy life. But there's a time where something might go wrong and there's no plan behind your money. Thank you for this video:)
@chantelmaurer Up on the top right hand side of this video, click that link and I made another video showing how to make the excel form and at the bottom of that video there is a link to print off that form. :) Thank you so much for watching!
Hi! I am Interested in how you run your monthly budget. I was wondering if you can email a budget planner like the one you use so I can start my own. I would also like to learn how to do to do the excel form... please i want to learn
Hello Amy! I watch you all the time! You are amazing! Congrats on your second boy!! that's so exciting....I just saw this video that you posted a while ago and i love the way you guys budget. Can you please send me the form (blank of course) so we can follow the way you budget. Thankss=)
love it..were can i get one of those budgets charts?i am a single mom who stays home with my son all day and i am looking to how to budget each month....could really use help lol...im very interested although i couldnt do exel..but could do a chart..
Amy, my hubby and I have been budgeting very similar to this for 32 years. We got off the right foot with the meal planning and family budget. It works wonders. We have a category for numerous things- Christmas, other holidays, ( cuz I LUV them and always do parties) and we budget for the dog, and car maintenance etc. etc. It is really the only way to go. I did the same as you... stuck all my work $ into savings so we could learn to live off from one income from day 1. Thanks for sharing!
Neil and I use an excel spreadsheet to budget our money as well. We currently do not add up all receipts but Neil recently went to a First Time Homebuyers class and they suggested we start doing that so we've been collecting a small pile of receipts. I have to admit though that Neil's excel form is WAY over my head LOL he's tried explaining it to me several times and I always zone out lol Same thing when he tried to explain our stocks. lol I'm just lost lost lost lol
i love this!! great i dea!! i would love it if you could possible tell me the categories if you ever get a free moment on FB. if not i totally understand!! we need to start doing something!!
Fantastic! Would love to see a video on the Excel form. After 12 years of living willy nilly and now being a mostly SAHM, we're finally budgeting. Tips and tricks and ideas from others have helped so much. Thanks for doing the video. Think I might steal your sheet :)
Grea tips! So many people live at or above their means and that's how they get in trouble. My theory is live comfortably below your means so we can have fun when we retire. =)
We do the exact same thing by excel spreadsheet. We keep the receipts until it's entered into the spreadsheet, or review our online statements to enter totals paid for by credit cards. I think having to write down EVERYTHING you spend makes you realize where your money's going... :) You might not get everything you want, but it's good to be debt free at the end of the day.
I found another helpful thing is an automatic savings account. If you have it available from your bank you should check it out. You can choose the amount taken out of your account. We chose $1 taken out of our checking account daily. So at the end of the month we have $28-$31 saved and we didn't even miss it. Small things like that add up. :) Good video. Love those excel sheets.
I amnot discipline at all. i wish i could be. i have dept from college and credit cards. I want to get out of dept but I don't know how.Do you have any suggestions.
Does the excel form have the total expenses for each category or just total expenses period? Love your nails! I would love a list of the categories in the bottom bar or in a personal message :)
Wow I'm jealous of your self discipline! I started an excel like that years ago, but I think I stopped because I didn't like the reality of where all my money was going, lol. I need to start doing this again though :D
Amazing ideas for budgeting!! Tim loves making those excel spread sheets.. he has our budget like that on his computer but we need to do the paper thing and write down everything we spend!
Very very helpful! If only I could get Dave to save all of his receipts and go along with it haha. He whips the plastic out without even thinking twice.
Great advice! We use cash only so when we get paid we take it out and use cash! I find we spend less if we only bring 70$ to the store rather then unlimited from our plastic cards! I also use a ton of coupons and use the savvycent wallet (which I'm doing a review & giveaway for in a few days) which really helps because in the back of the wallet there are slots to put money for separate categories or coupons for separate categories! I love saving money!!
That's great! Budgeting is something we are trying to get down right now. We are not very good at it, both of us need to learn some self control when it comes to spending... Definitely something we need to work on before we have a baby! Thanks for sharing :)
