Fearless Budgeting Course #2: Working with Your Spending Plan
Developed by a recovering compulsive spender to address the unique challenges faced by compulsive spenders
Once you have your spending plan foundation, you need a method to track your spending ongoing to help you live within your means. In this course, you will learn all you need to successfully work with your spending plan. Each lesson contains an audio and text. There are three video demonstrations.
Note: This course is for those who already have their spending plan foundation. If you do not yet have a spending plan, you will want to first take Course #1: Foundational Course Creating Your Spending Plan.
Please note that the online course is free, but you can optionally purchase a print or Kindle version of the book and a download of all the audios for offline listening.
LENGTH: 3 hours, 19 minutes (audios) and 1 hour for the videos
Topics include:
What Software is Used for Training Demonstrations?
I do use budgeting software, when necessary, for screen shots, demonstration purposes in Course #2, and in my videos. My training tool is a user-friendly budgeting software program called YNAB (or You Need a Budget). Using my affiliate link, you will receive 34 DAYS FREE TO TRY YNAB.
I’ve been using YNAB since 2009. This software is the closest I’ve found to a virtual envelope system, the perfect tool for compulsive spenders. YNAB is free to test for 34 days. I also discuss other methods to work with your spending plan, and you can use the concepts in the Fearless Budgeting training program with any system you use, from paper and pencil to spreadsheets to budgeting software.
I will also be including some YNAB-specific training videos to clarify issues that some YNAB users find frustrating. For instance, people often come to me with problems around reconciling with their bank account, an error that they just can’t figure out, or confusion around functionality, such as how to account for cash in YNAB.
