Buidling a Household Budget & Spending Station

Class begins February 12, 2018.
This course is offered once in 2018.
- Are bills paid barely-on-time, or slightly late, because we could not find them or did not have the cash to pay them?
- Is it getting harder and harder to find money for even small ‘extra expenses’?
- And when the ‘extras’ are bought, is the money for them ‘borrowed’ from another bill, or added to burgeoning credit card debt?
If these issues arise more and more frequently in your life, perhaps it is time to look for a system that accounts for every cent and allows prudent planning and easy money management…and Brook can help!!
In this course you will:
- Set up your household Spending Station to provide a record of all spending
- Build a household budget to plan for every cent of income and outgo
- Establish a ‘personal layaway plan’ for the ‘extra purchases’
- Explore a “cash-only” lifestyle that has proven power to reduce debtload and build savings
Course Summary:
Week One – In our first week together we will focus upon building our Spending Stations, which will be the ‘home record’ for all our financial responsibilities. We will devise a Wants Ledger that allows us to cut down on impulse buying by developing a plan for purchases, and using special forms, account for personal and household spending.
Week Two – Our second week focuses upon our budgetary needs, using a budget spreadsheet (an Excel workbook designed by Brook and part of the course offerings) in order to record the entries in our Spending Stations. Then we will explore the “cash-only” program that Brook designed and has successfully used in her own household for many years, and customize it for practical use in our own lives.
These are difficult financial times…make the most of them as you learn careful and responsible money management.
