Well written, and spot on. I live in Australia, and my wife and I had similarly disturbing revelation when we analysed how much cash we were withdrawing from ATMs on an annual basis. We didn't realise how much cash we were spending, and only a guy feel about what were spending it on.</p> <p>Anyway, my solution was to use a google docs spreadsheet to track our expenditure over a period of time. Google docs seemed best since it has great sharing abilities.</p> <p>At the end of this process I wrote a blog on our experiences. See http://blog.sumwise.com/2009/07/16/review-google-docs.</p> <p>If you could share your Excel budget with me I'd appreciate it.</p> <p>Cheers Darren</p> Hi James, I just came across your post. Well written, and spot on. I live in Australia, and my wife and I had similarly disturbing revelation when we analysed how much cash we were withdrawing from ATMs on an annual basis.

Anyway, my solution was to use a google docs spreadsheet to track our expenditure over a period of time. Google docs seemed best since it has great sharing abilities.

At the end of this process I wrote a blog on our experiences. See http://blog.sumwise.com/2009/07/16/review-google-docs.

If you could share your Excel budget with me I’d appreciate it.
