Product Description
Make your budget work for you! The book that has helped hundreds of thousands is now completely revised and updated!

Bonnie's Household Budget Book is an indispensable, day-to-day workbook for anyone - parents, singles, freelancers, commissioned salespeople, salaried employees, or chief executive officers - who wants to get control of their home budget and personal finances. It explains how to:

Set up a budget
Estimate - and balance - your income and expenses
Reduce debt
Set specific goals and priorities
Adjust your budget to fit changing needs

It contains invaluable fill-in forms for keeping track of everything from daily expenditures and savings accounts to medical expenses, interest and mortgage payments, investments, insurance payments, auto maintenance, utilities usage, and home improvements. It also has a place to make a complete household inventory; a special chapter on how to get your whole family involved in a spending plan; pep talks on how to prevent impulse buying and overuse of credit; and more than 400 hints on how to save money on food, transportation, entertainment, and home energy.

Whether you're trying to save money for a new laptop (or house or car), or just struggling to pay last month's bills, you'll find immediate help and direction in Bonnie's clear, practical, enthusiastic advice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! I now know where all my money goes., August 23, 1998
By A Customer
I bought the Household Budget Book when my credit card debt started piling up. What a difference it has made. It has helped me evaluate where I spend my money. Not only do I record my monthly expenses, income, and investments I can view my yearly living expenses, auto maintenance,and household inventory. I finally save the money monthly I had always promised myself I would. The back provides dollar stretching tips I've found useful. I've just purchased my second copy for next year.I never thought tracking my spending could be so much fun.

3.0 out of 5 stars Helpful Budgeting Basics, June 7, 2000
By A Customer
Over all the book is helpful, and the work sheets are detailed enough to seperate expenses, however, unless you have kept fairly detailed records for several months, you will not be able to accurately complete the worksheets. Be prepared to spend time with prep work before beginning.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not so good
I was not impressed with this book. It is simply not that good. I ended up getting a book from Office Max for daily entries instead.
