Budget Forms

November 10th, 2012 at 12:37 pm

Hello everyone,

I haven't been doing a budget but know I need to start. I would like for it to be downloaded my mac so that I could seat down and fill it out. If you know of a free download please let me know.

    I don't think any budget template you might find online would compare in usefulness and accuracy to your own customized budget. Only you know what your income and expenses are.

    Why not start by religiously tracking every single expense for one month. Create categories into which these expenses fall, like: groceries, car expenses (insurance, gas, maintenance, MV fees), electricity, phone, Internet, etc. etc.

    After you have a sense of what your "typical" monthly expenses are, you can begin to define a reasonable budget that covers your monthly expenses, ideally with some money left over for savings.

    My budget form is just a simple excel worksheet. It's customized to all of our monthly expenses.

    I agree with the above. Nobody else can tailor a budget to your individual situation as well as you can, and it is really not that complicated. You know what all of your expenses are (living space, food, utilities, insurance, etc.), and you know what your income is, so it is just a matter of getting it all down on paper. You can even do it in a notebook, like my non-tech-savvy parents, and it leads to the same results if you follow the budget! Good luck to you... and congrats on wanting to make that budget.
