Free Budget Binder Printables – The Cover

We designed this free personal budget planner cover to give your family budget planner a lovely aesthetic view. There’s even a place on the sheet for you to label it with your name. We hope you love it as much as we do!

Budget Binder- Financial Goals

When setting financial goals, I’ve found it’s better to split these into short and long-term goals.

For instance, you might set a short-term goal of adding an extra $100 to your savings accounts by the end of the month. A long-term goal could be debt repayment of a car loan, student loans, or your mortgage.

Now, how do you use this free budget worksheet?

Set a goal or three! Our current goal is to save money to take our camper on a year-long road trip in the future. So, if we were the ones filling out this worksheet, we would write “save money for full-time RVing” in the goal box. Then, we would list the monetary goal we need to save to achieve this goal.

Getting specific and detailed about your goals can produce a better result.

The next section is the “time frame” box. You’ll write how long you want to take to achieve your goal in this section.

For example, we’re expecting it to take us one year to save enough money to travel full-time in our camper. So, in our worksheet, we would put the date for one year from the day I’m filling out my page.

Having your timeline and goals written out and easy to access can be great for motivating you to reach your goals.

After you have your goals listed and your timeline in place, it’s time to list your “action steps.” How will you meet your goals? As an example, if your goal is to pay off your debt, how much money will you need to contribute to debt repayment each month?

Are there any monthly bills you can reduce to add money to your savings accounts? Will you have any work bonuses coming your way soon? If it’s close to tax season, can you count on a tax refund this year?

Reflect on your goals and identify the steps you have to take to achieve them. These action steps are the things you’ll need to do to reach your goal!

We believe the recipe for success is determination, a goal, and a solid plan for how to achieve it.

Debt Tracker

I would assume one reason you’re reading this is to get help to control your debt and gain financial freedom. If so, the debt tracking printable budget worksheet is the perfect tool for you.

We’ve had major success with paying down our debt thanks to this debt worksheet. Visibly watching our debt disappear has been liberating to our financial life.

That’s why the Debt Tracker worksheet is at the front of your binder.

Here are some examples of potential debts you may need to pay off:

• Vehicle loans
• Student loans
• Mortgage
• Credit cards
• Medical bill payment

After you’ve made a list of all your debts, include the amount you owe, your monthly payments, and your payment due date. Having all of this information compiled is great for tracking your monthly debt dues.

With all the chaos of life, we know how challenging it is to track monthly expenses. Nothing is worse than missing a payment because you forgot about it.

We talk about automating your payments in our article “how to thrive as a single income household.” Automating our bill payments has been key to having our bills paid on time each month while saving money.

It’s been great telling our money where to go, and you’ll love it too!

Monthly Bills

This printable monthly budget worksheet is fantabulous for keeping track of your monthly bills. It’s especially helpful if you haven’t set your bills up to auto-pay yet.

We like using this page with our auto-draft tracker – available in the Full Paid Printable Monthly Budget Planner.

I have this sheet printed out and kept in multiple areas around the house so it’s always easily accessible. One place I have it is inside our kitchen cabinet. Another copy is inside our family Budget binder.

This monthly budget sheet has also helped us eliminate unnecessary bills. If you don’t have this goal yet, it should be on your to-do list.

Here are a few examples of bills you might have:

• Internet
• Cable
• Utilities
• Cell phone
• Daycare
• Gym membership

You can easily figure out how much you owe monthly per bill by reviewing your bank account. You can view the previous month’s transactions or check several months to make sure the payments are the same each time.

If you’re not sure of the due dates for your bills, you can contact the company and get your precise date.

You may be wondering what good it does to track your monthly bills.

There can be plenty of times that a bill suddenly changes in price. If you notice increases, you have time to contact the company and see if there is any negotiation room to reduce the price.

It can also help you spread out your bills throughout the month instead of having a large chunk of bills coming out at one time.

When we first started money management, we discovered that a large portion of our bills were coming out at the same time. It was causing us to struggle to pay them all on time.

But then we found out that most utility companies allow you to choose your due date. So, we restructured our bill repayment to evenly distribute the dates between our two monthly paychecks.

Monthly Expenses

Another thing I wanted to include in our free printable budget worksheet binder was a monthly expense sheet!

Print off as many of these sheets as you need!

Tracking how much you spend each month – your expenses – is crucial when you’re trying to pay off debt and save money.

Here are some examples of expenses:

• Groceries
• Entertainment
• Necessities
• Clothing
• Gas

It’s vital to ensure you’re not spending more money than you earn per pay period.

Savings Tracker

My favorite part of these free printable budget worksheets might be the savings tracker. There is a good reason though; I mean, who doesn’t like having money saved up?

With this savings budget sheet, you can reach goals like paying off student loans, having enough money to invest, or putting away enough money to take a vacation.

This savings worksheet can help you meet any savings goal, whether it’s to build an emergency fund or save up for a kid’s college fund.

There are a few different ways to use your savings tracker. One way is to set a specific savings goal to track. An example would be a plan to save $1,000 in 3 months. So, we’d write that goal at the top of our budget sheet.

Then, fill out your savings sheet every time you add money to your savings, so you keep an accurate record of your progression toward your goal.

Another way to use this budget sheet is to track how much money you save in a dedicated month. Write down all the money you’re setting aside, and then add it up at the end of the month to see how you did.

This free printable budget template also has a description column, which we use for personal notes. For example, you could write down, “We added X amount of money to our savings from our tax refund.”

It’s so exciting to watch our savings increase. And it’s a great feeling to know you’re earning financial freedom.

But I also enjoy using the savings tracker with our Thousand Dollar Savings Plan, found in the paid version of our Full Budget planner pdf.

Emergency Fund

It might just be me, but I love the security of having an emergency fund. It seems like life always wants to kick you when you’re down and unprepared.

Have you ever experienced an emergency when you’re flat broke and can’t pay for it?

Nearly everyone has at some point in time.

But you can keep that from happening again by using this sheet to create an emergency fund. The best course is to have enough money stashed away to cover household expenses for four to five months.

If that seems excessive, you don’t have to start that large. Even if you only save a dollar a day, you have to start somewhere.

Notes- Printable Budget Planner

Finally, we included a notes page to give you the space to jot down ideas and things you need to remember that we might have missed.

You should take time every month to review your goals and budget. By looking back on your progress each month, you can get the motivation to continue saving and budgeting to achieve your goals. We know you have some big goals to achieve.
