Budget Meeting
So last night Kevin & I sat down to look at our finances. Not a fun meeting. We use Quicken and it's really cool because you can see all these graphs, charts, lists, etc... of all your spending and income. Kind of depressing at the same time. So we have set a "budget" and we are going to be really strict and write everything down into their categories in a spreadsheet and see how it all goes. Hopefully this will help us alot to see where the money is going and what we need to adjust. So starting today the budget begins. Wish us luck!

Good luck. We are the same way, 7 years of marriage and no formal budget. Maybe someday we'll get on it.
I would LOVE to be on a budget. How did you do it? Did you have a form or something to work with? I would love to know!
Me, too! More than five years of married life and no major disasters and no budget. Today we took an MSN money management quiz. We got 70% and know we'll need a budget in the next two years.
