Budget Tracker

I have been searching for an easy to use budget tracker that I can use and share with each of you. I think I found it. It is a great tool for those of you looking for an easy way to track your spending and work on a budget. Great for the beginner!

The most important thing to have is a budget. You need to know where your money is going. Keeping track of it every month helps you to know where you save/spend your money. Below is a budget that you can easily put in all your financial information, and you can make improvements where you need to!

Yes- there is a category for 3 month Food Supply & Long Term Food Storage! Unless you can afford it, it is not wise to go out and buy your food storage all at once. It is important to build your food storage monthly so you don’t go into any debt acquiring it. You can also see what you are using out of your food storage, and get the items you actually use!

Email me and I will send you the Excel Budget Tracker!

Here are the instructions on how to use it.

1. Download the file and save it as “Monthly Budget Tracker - Master”
2. On the excel sheet, any cell that is shaded does NOT need to be filled it. Just input numbers into the white cells only.
3. Input all the information into the “Projected” cells. Save file.
4. Each month, go into your file and input your actual costs. Each month you need to save a different file under “Budget - (Name of month).
5. Analyze where you are spending your money. Try your best to put as much into savings as possible. Figure out how much you can put into food storage. Realize it is a goal worth putting money into!
