    I need MAJOR help in this department. We pay our bills... and I know we should have money left but we dont EVER and I am trying to figure out why. But the more I look at it and try to figure it out, the more frusterated I get so then I just ignore it, lol...

  • Jaye - I may have to pick your brain at a later date. :)

    Jenn - Can I get a copy too? jillypoo (at) live (dot) com

     

    I think it just comes down to...I have to get a job. But...there's issues there too. :(

  • Jen, I would like it too, please.

    You can email me any time! 

    It surprises people how well DH and I live with how little we make - but it's all in your priorities. 

    I might be willing to post our budget, if you guys want.

    Smile I did it with a friend of mine.  She made me a fabulous meal and I did her budget for her.  It was thoroughly enjoyable for all parties involved.

    This sounds good, but honestly... I am super embarassed at the amount of money we (well husband really) makes vs. amount we have in savings.... It's shameful because we should have a TON more in there.

    Not sure I'd want to share that with a whole room full of people, haha!

    You guys are getting me all excited with all this budget talk - seriously, I'm that lame.

    If such a GTG were to ever happen (which I'm not saying it necessarily should since I said it as a joke - but if you wanted to) I would think it should be done like a Pure Romance party...hehe

    So a big group to discuss general budgets/focus on specific topics, goals, how tos, and then do one on one private discussions like when you go into a private room with the PR representative to place your order... only it would be with budget talk...not toy purchasing.

    Am I making any sense?

    It's likely I'm not.

    I now feel like a massive dork.

  • Real life joke told to me from my FIL (who I love dearly):

    What do being an accountant and being constipated have in common? If things get stuck, you can always stick a pencil in there and budget. (budge-it).

    LOL. Need I say more about why I think he's hilarious? Keep in mind he's a very serious man.

    In other news, if there is a GTG like this, I volunteer to be the bartender. Can I think up budget-related games to play, or are we being strictly business?

    This joke relates way too much to me - in every way.... :)

     You're assigned bartending and game planner duties - don't worry, I was totally thinking of games already...You know what they say about great minds. 

  • imageimshell:

    Tay & Stac-I have a nice little budget spreadsheet (excel) that I would be happy to email you.

    I ditto the MM ladies, they're good like that.

    We have a really strict budget right now.  We hardly ever go out to eat and well, I'm really cheap lol 

    oo, may i see it too please....jware_1985 @yahoo.com
