Family Balance Sheet

OCTOBER 9, 2014

By the end of the month, my goal is to help you have a detailed financial plan for your family. It is my personal mission as the household manager for my family to live well, but I want us to do so on less money. We used to spend hundreds of dollars a month going out to eat at restaurants. Dining Out.

Tell us about you and your family. We realized that we wanted to travel as a family and the only thing keeping us from seeing the world was money. We definitely spend a lot more money on eating out at restaurants and using babysitters now that we are debt free. What are your financial goals now? Where are you from?

If you are self-employed, work for a company or in an industry that is unstable, or maybe you or someone in your family has medical issues, you might want to save 6-12 months of expenses. It sounds dreadful, but it is possible to reduce your grocery bill without making everyone in your family miserable. Try freezer cooking.

Tell us about you and your family. We’re not going all the way back to our pre-debt-repayment spending habits but we will incorporate a little more restaurant freedom into our current budget.

Tell us about you and your family. I knew that we had to do something different because we made a decent family income, but had nothing to show for it except for the mountain of bills that I had laid out in front of me. We kept the initial celebration pretty low-key and just went out for dinner to our favorite sushi restaurant.

We consider her our “bonus kid” and our family is extremely close. Aside from those exceptions, we did all the work ourselves and with the help of family. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears were shed here, but we both agree that having no mortgage gave us a serious leg up on our retirement savings and other financial goals.

Personally, budgeting has allowed us to control of our money, reach financial goals, and start planning for our dream life. Some items are fixed and are recurring each month, but other things are variable (change month to month) such as groceries, heating/cooling, clothing, restaurants. Total your expenses.

In September 2019, my husband and I accomplished our biggest financial goal in our almost 20 years of marriage. Restaurants. In fact, there would be entire weekends that we ate at a restaurant for every single meal–breakfasts, lunch, and dinner…AND ice cream cones for dessert! We LOVE to go out to dinner!
