Who it is for

Anyone in the UK who wants the whole money picture in one place: a household budget for the year, a plan for each pay day, every bill and subscription on a calendar, a route out of debt and a pot for each savings goal. It suits a single person, a couple or a family, on a salary or with a side income. Take-home pay means what reaches your bank account after income tax, National Insurance, pension and any student loan.

Questions

Do I need Microsoft Excel?

No. Each spreadsheet has a Google Sheets version, which is free with a Google account. The Excel files also open in the free web version of Excel.

How do I get it?

Straight after payment it is in your library on this site: two zip files and the bundle Open me first page with the Google Sheets button for each spreadsheet.

Do the five files share data?

No. Each is its own workbook, so you can use one or all five. The guides show which numbers to carry across, for example your take-home pay from the payday budget into the household budget.

Is it cheaper than buying them one by one?

Yes. The five spreadsheets are the same files sold separately on this site, and the bundle is about 40% less than the five together.

Is this financial advice?

No. The figures are your own, worked out to help you plan. Every rate sits on a Settings tab you can update.
