It’s when you have to decide for the 20th time in a row to eat that lunch you brought from home instead of running across the street for fast food that it gets hard. And I include some in my book “ Personal Money Management.” There are hundreds of ideas on the internet.

Of course, that advice is much easier to give than to follow through with.įor example, trimming expenses isn’t hard. Your new budget should include money for savings: emergency fund, paying down debt, or retirement.The only thing at end of the road of spending more than making on a long-term is bankruptcy. If this is occurring, serious, serious changes need to occur. You should NOT be spending more than you are making.Make a budget based on BOTH what you normally spend and what you SHOULD be spending.Figure out how much you’re spending (track expenses).One of the thing that I was amazed at- both when I was learning and when I was teaching others- is the lack of basic knowledge.īut when I started reading financial books, I kept reading the same advice again and again. These free budgeting printables were very popular with them. Homeless women- on limited income- could still take control of their finances.

Each week we did a self-sufficiency class. The printables were originally developed for a class I taught. The template is super easy to use: print it out (it works best in colour it’s a little light in black & white), cut along the outline, fold & secure with tape or glue.Īs you can see from the picture, I simply used washi tape to secure the tabs as it’s somewhat transparent and you can write on fairly easily.Not only have I learned a lot from my own personal finances, I used to volunteer at a homeless shelter. Then, I throw them all in a box until the end of the month where I transfer them to my bookkeeping program. I actually keep two: one for beside the computer where I do my online shopping and one for my purse for my in-store shopping. It’s based on a week-to-week timeframe and it’s big enough to keep both store receipts as well as online receipts that you can (and should – right then, right there!) print off. Well, here’s a fun little DIY envelope template that lets you store your receipts and keep track of all of those expenses. Which is great, ’cause it gets the job done.īut, did you track that purchase for your year-end bookkeeping exercise? You know, the one that asks you to add up all of your expenses to go against all of your earnings? So, you do what (I’m guessing) a lot of us do: you run out/go online and buy it! Or you don’t quite have the washi tape that you’re looking for to put together that exciting DIY guest post for that fabulous BIG blog. Or the 100% cotton white thread is running low in your machine and you’re not going to have enough for that wholesale order due at the end of the week. Or you realize that you don’t have the right size canvas for that painting that’s been roaming around in your head, trying to get out.

You just ran out of ink for the 5 orders that showed up on Etsy today.
