{"title":"Helpful Life Stuff","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a collection of helpful life stuff that I actually made just for myself, that I was recommended to share in case others would find it useful as well. Trust me when I say, the items in this collection are in fact, things I use on the daily.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"budgeting-spreadsheets","title":"Budgeting Spreadsheets","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis will help you track your spending month to month, keep track of exactly how much you're earning, and where that money is going (taxes, 401k, savings, etc), and see how much savings you have, along with being able to track saving up for different things, such as car insurance, or that fun vacation you want to go on, while keeping the money all in one place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou will receive a set of 3 spreadsheets for you to use, and 1 filled out example:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA monthly template (with a filled out example\/guide)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA paystubs record\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA savings template\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you choose to purchase this set of spreadsheets, I truly hope that it helps you!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd because I feel like I need to defend the price a little bit... At first, I thought it was counterintuitive for a budgeting tool to be expensive-ish, but as a good friend pointed out, budgeting is an important part of life, and I have poured months of time and energy into perfecting these spreadsheets as much as possible, and you can make copies for each month, without ever having to re-purchase, unlike a physical budgeting book, or budgeting software. I do my best to keep my products affordable and beautiful, and I dislike how everything is becoming subscription-based with no real product in the end. If you purchase this product, the files will be yours, and there will be no additional costs at any later date! :)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen I first started my budgeting journey, I was very lost, often checking out different budgeting journals and websites, hoping to find one that I would like. I ultimately ended up buying a budgeting planner that really helped me get started!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter 2 years of consistently using that planner every single month, I developed these spreadsheets, since they're neater than my handwriting! I had never thought to share these with others before, but after telling friends and family how I keep track of my expenses, they encouraged me to add this as a product in my store, since it might help other people in their journey to financial literacy, like it did for me.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese spreadsheets are cute, fun, color coded, and help me keep track of my spending in all areas of life, keeping me on track and organized, with areas for cross-referencing and double checking to make sure I have the numbers right. The best part about using a spreadsheet: it does the math for me. I used to sit there with a calculator and my notebook, frustratedly adding and subtracting numbers over and over again, only to get different results each time...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e keep a blank copy\/template to duplicate so you have a clean base to start on for each month.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note: \u003c\/strong\u003eThese sheets are .numbers format, and currently only work on Mac. However, you should be able to convert it to an excel format.
