If you're watching this video you know that keeping track of your spending, expenses, and net worth is necessary for financial wellbeing, but what's the best way to do that? In this video, I share a Personal Finance Tracker for Beginners to use (template included of course) and show how by just spending 10 minutes a month you can be more intentional about your spending!
I have nothing against budgeting apps like Mint of course, since I've used it myself a few years back. But I've found that in order to be more mindful about my spending, I needed a more manual approach since I would literally SEE what I was spending money on and REFLECT on whether that was a sound purchase decision or not
So I decided to create a personal finance template on Google Sheets that would help me keep track (broadly speaking) of my monthly spending and my net worth (although that obviously fluctuates daytoday with my stock investments). But, thanks to the 80/20 rule, I believe this is a healthy balance between not overstressing and still being able to know I'm doing the responsible thing financially
If you end up using this budget tracker (and if you use other budget / spend / expense apps like Mint), please do let me know how you find it!
