Hi everyone,
Well as you know today was payday, wooo to the hoooo!
I have decided to show the full extent of my finances by comparing my income versus my outgoings.
So here goes:
FEBRUARY 2017
INCOME
(After student loan repayments, pension contribution, taxes and national insurance)
£1206.26
OUTGOINGS
Paying back boyfriend for Dr Who Ticket £12.80
Credit Card A £20.97
Credit Card L £20
Credit Card N £10.40
Bank Charges £15.04
Paying back overdraft £100
Credit Card T £30
Phone Contract £21.49
Broadband £26.17
Gas and Electricity £54
Train Season Ticket £292.30
Rent and Council Tax £198.42
Savings £20
Food/Grocery/Household Shopping £200
Water Bill Payment £19.15
Football Training £12
Football Training Transport Costs £15.60
Membership £3.92
Work Expenses, Gifts, Travel (Day to Day), Travel (Visiting), Home, Social, Health, Postage and Packaging and Clothing Maintenance = £100 (in total)
= £1172.26
Remaining = £35
So after everything has been taken out and accounted for I am left with £35 for miscellaneous spending.
As long as I have food and shelter accounted for then I will be fine.
To be in profit after all the bills (some more fun then others) have been taken out is a great feeling.
I am happy. I don’t have room for error, I notice if as little as 1p is missing from my purse, but I have ‘surplus’ money each month. I’m prioritising my debts, things will be fine. I hope.

Profit warning needs to be issued. Thats a massive up from the 20p. Treat yourself (at the end of the month).

I wish, that would break my No Spend Year goal. I may decide to go out for a meal with my boyfriend for Valentines day though.

It is a good goal, and it is definitely times like these when you wish you could break it. You’re doing so well though – I shouldn’t encourage breaking it.
