I’ve been working behind the scenes on a tool that I personally use to track and organize our finances: Family Budget Spreadsheets. This package of 9 Microsoft Excel spreadsheets is designed to help you organize your finances, plan for major purchases, create a budget, understand your cash flow, and track your net worth.

Aside from the mortgage, we also added equipment and renovation loans with the purchase, and we had a student loan. It was so big that I cried for two days straight– we paid off six figures in non-mortgage debts.
