4th Apr '12 - Moved all direct debits/standing orders to 1st of the month. £500 in bills will come out of D's wages and £225 in food, travel, pets and an allowance will come out of mine. We get paid weekly, so D's wages will stay in her account and not get touched and once I've bought everything I need to, I'll deposit the rest of mine. After each monthly bills come off, whatevers left can go to pay things off, save or for a treat. Or all three!

Budget created 11/1 and have stuck to it so far.

Aanvulling op vorige update: Bij 78 euro p.m. gaat er 28 euro naar mijn spaarrekening en 50 euro is mijn maandelijks budget.

Als ik elke week twee dagen werk verdien ik zonder reisvergoeding €156 euro. In dat geval gaat er €86 euro naar mijn spaarrekening (ipod/iphone?) en bedraagt mijn maandelijks budget €70 euro. Als ik elke week maar een keer werk, verdien ik zonder reisvergoeding slechts €78 euro p.m.

10/11-12/11

$200 for food for a month.

For food and household bills so i stop using my overdraft. And save to go to OZ

18th Jan '12 - Fell by the way side when we moved. I'm now gonna re do. Thank goodness rent is a lot cheaper :)

11th Sept '11 - Wrote down all our bills and the usual things we spend money on and took that out of our earnings. I've allocated us an allowance for each week so we don't dip into the money in our accounts so that the rest can be saved for building up our emergency fund :) Once we start working to this budget, I'll start seeing what I can reduce from what we need to spend

Enkel budget op de betaalrekening laten staan, rest naar spaarrekening.

I have set up a few different scenerios for a debt repayment plan using a microsoft spread sheet. Also tweaked my current budget plan by adding a couple different scenerios for a budget...both for when I am working and getting a paycheck and for when I am layed off on less income. I think the 'create a budget' portion of this task is complete, but I will give it some time before I will check it off as 'done' just to make sure I will 'stick to it'. Perhaps a 6 month trial (starting in September) is appropriate? Hopefully I will be checking this off as 'DONE' in FEBRUARY 2012!!!

kinda have to when you're poor ;)

starting in october...when school starts.

created a budget and testing it out to see if it is realistic. I think I need to make adjustments, but we will see. I used microsoft excel to make a spread sheet and tips from the show 'Til Debt Do Us Part' on TV.

I've almost completed this.

2011 budget created for student bank loan. Ouch!
