Was wondering if anyone had a budget setup I could use as a guide?
Would like to try and calculate a budget but not really sure where to start.

The standard start point for a lot of people is A statement of affairs(SOA)

The starting point is where you allocate your income NOW.
You then PLAN/Budget where you want to be in the future.
Then monitor that you are on track.
MSMoney is free and has a good budget planner built in and can then be used to track where you money is and what you spend on.
links on here(no support or on-line smartphone but great to use once you are set up)
