Congrats on finding one that works for you. I am still looking for mine. I need to strike the right balance between simple, clarity with enough info so that I will understand why I put in the numbers in the first place. The biggest time waster is to create a fancy schmancy worksheet only to be confused of it later!Cassie Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13319503326857092930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3563520983104787673.post-64265623403835179572012-01-07T18:40:51.318+11:002012-01-07T18:40:51.318+11:00Ha!

I used to write everything down in a book, but it was a bit of a jumble, and too hard to go back and look at what I actually sold. I have spent most of this past week teaching myself how to use Numbers (it's the Mac equivalent of Excel). I hadn't used a spreadsheet since high school, and I don't even think we had the internet back then, at least not on personal computers! It took a while, but I now have an awesome spreadsheet, with sections for income, expenses and a very scary table showing my net cash flow each month, with an even scarier little line graph that shows just how much I've lost so far! But, the last 3 months, that line was heading back up so hopefully this year, I'll be back in the black! Now that it's all set-up, it takes the same or less time to enter the figures, but the great thing is that the computer does all the calculations and I can make all sorts of pretty pie charts from the tables! Definitely glad I finally got around to doing it!Dyanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13048576236212694567noreply@blogger.com
