Your system of planning is very responsible, but for me it would be very time-consuming to plan ahead of time. You’re right; we generally know what sorts of things we’ll be buying. And we both want to keep expenses down, because that means more budget money if we do well!

I track all my spending too, and I don’t find that to be very difficult. The difference between your system and my system is that I plan what I will spend each month on everything. This means I know what bills will come up and that I have accounted for them. Your system doesn’t seem to make sure you can pay ALL your bills, because you just subtract them out.

However, like many people I know, you probably just naturally earn more than you spend.
