Dome(R) Simplified Home Budget Book, 7 1/2in. x 10 1/2in., Teal

The Dome Budget book has been helping me to keep track of all the expenses and income I have each day. Besides having medical and drug expenses, a place to record charitable donations, stock acquisitions, and insurance, this book also has places in the back for logging medical and drug expenses. I used to be able to buy them at Office Depot, now they have changed to another one. I bought the Dome books online instead of having to adapt to a new format.

The Dome Budget Book has been a part of our budgeting process Though I do agree that it could use a better breakdown of categories, we have been changing them for so long that I know what each one is without even looking. When we were in our 20s, we used it to figure out where to cut spending, and now with so much less money, it has turned out to be In fact, we were able to share information with the census taker with its assistance. Some of them are old school, but occasionally my husband pulls them out to look through old pictures. When you record all your transactions, you are accountable, and that's what I like best about it. Saving receipts for ATM purchases and recording recurring debits and check purchases are important to us. It was once difficult to find many books at once, so I buy several at once. In addition, the books are budgeted into the budget as well, so it won't break the bank.

This is what I bought because I had no idea how to budget. I found that everything I found was all digital, which is great, but if you do not understand the concept all the cool digital features won't help you. For me, it would be like learning division only through an Excel There is a lot of information in this book, which breaks it down and forces you to write down what you spend, manually add, usually takes me 3 minutes per day to check my bank account on my smart phone, about the same length of time it takes me to check my email. I reconcile it every couple of days with my online bank account (hey, I'm not opposed to electronic banking), and now I can give a detailed account of what I spend. Additionally, I am able to reconcile with a bank account and actually make some real progress A budget allows you to stay within your means. The only criticism I would have is that it does not appear to have a rolling annual report. A sheet that you can use to keep track of your monthly income and expenses. At a glance, I'd like to know how much I spend in each of these categories for the entire year.

This book makes me kind of angry. It doesn't have a column for your budget goals. I need to know how much I should spend on something, so I can budget that, not having the option to know that I've spent $150 of my allowed $300 means I will likely go overboard. Furthermore, if you make multiple purchases from the same category on the same day, it is not possible to itemize your spending. Food is a good example. When you buy groceries and go out to dinner on the same day, the food section has a single dollar amount. It doesn't help one determine whether purchases are necessary or not because this type of budgeting doesn't take a need-to-know into account. Although I assume this book will be helpful for people simply hoping to track their expenses and track their income for tax purposes, I doubt it will be of much use to those of us hoping to remove debt and save for the future. Moreover, this is a book that clearly appeals to couples A centric view. Additionally, all the information is based on two people's incomes and tax rates in addition to writing to the reader as if they were one half of a couple. It is rude, presumptuous and annoying to read something like this. Personally, I think the item should be returned.

This is a great product, I bought more than I can count and gave them as gifts to my friends and relatives. In my case, I modify the titles and do innovative modifications in a way that lets me lay out 6 months of savings, expenses, and see the timing of my payments in relation to my income.

In spite of making budgets and keeping track of expenses for over 30 years, I haven't learned the art of tracking expenses. I am not afraid of math either! This is the first time I have been able to get my husband on board. We both find the system very useful. Previously, I have always created the columns for expenses at the top and the rows for dates on the sides, so it takes a little while to get.

To be honest, I have been trying to control my spending for a very long time now. Every time I began, I felt like I was inventing the wheel since I did not know how many categories of spending I needed to track, nor how I was going to do it. It didn't make sense to purchase software that might crash and would not provide much help, but trying to create a budget spreadsheet from scratch was much more challenging. As I shopped at Office Depot one day, I came across this book, and I will be forever grateful for it. There are already categories in the accounting book, and the daily expenses are arranged so they can be easily entered. We created a budgeting system that has worked well for my wife and me by using the categories given, plus a category for credit cards. It is exciting to count days when no entries have been made, and it is astonishing how quickly savings can grow once the money is Anyone who is trying to get their financial affairs in order should read this book. The next time you purchase a how-to book, you should - You should buy this book if you are interested in budgeting. It is an essential tool for following through with the goals you have. Considering the price of about $5, it is an amazing.
