Budget Spreadsheet Geek

Good Evening Fellow Budget'ers,
I am just currently doing my spreadsheet for the year ahead and as always, I am geeking out in all the cool ways you can use your data input to output interesting ways to look at your spending.
If anybody would like a copy of mine when it is done let me know
Happy to add some features or particular outgoings (not your financial information, like "Pet Insurance" or "Childcare") that I might not have.
Kindest Regards,

I'm aiming to finish it tomorrow after the boss (DW) tells me what she wants from it. I want to keep it simple, user-friendly and informative.
I saw theirs but I felt it wasn't for me and doesn't have the tools I'd want. I'll post mine if possible, people can have it notLoyalty is a two-way street. If I'm asking for it from you, then you're getting it from me. - Harvey Specter0 -
Almost finished my spreadsheet which I've really enjoyed creating and making user-friendly.
However, having had a quick look at the rules i don't think I'm allowed to send it so I might have to remove this thread. Hoping someone can offer some quick guidance over the next so many hours or I'll just remove it.
Sorry if I got anyone's hopes up - shame because this spreadsheet is certainly ideally for the "Simple-Budget" minded people.

Hi FailedTeacher
Provided you are simply sharing an Excel file, I can't see anything against this in the rules. Attachments are not allowed but spreadsheets have been shared elsewhere on the forums via Google Docs. Offering to sell copies is against the rules, as is linking to a blog or your own website with the spreadsheet on it. Tiny Url and the like are not allowed.
Personal details aren't allowed so any created by xxxx xxxx line you may have would need to be removed.0 -

Almost done, just doing final touches
it's not finished but enough to play around with.
-a few others outside MSE expressed interest who aren't perhaps as computer literate as others. So I've done a guide with it on the front page but I can't see anyone needing it. Just a couple of older generations haha.Loyalty is a two-way street. If I'm asking for it from you, then you're getting it from me. - Harvey Specter0 -
Thank you for wishing to have a look at my spreadsheet.
I'll be honest, there is better on the internet - certainly more professional looking. But I created this spreadsheet because I think it hits what others has missed and offers a simple user-interface.
In other words, this spreadsheet allows you to just type in your expected income, your calculated budget - tell it what has been the case month by month for it to feedback results.

That is the link, I hope you all enjoyAny questions please let me know.
I have removed any personal information from the spreadsheet but if you happy to find anything please let me know.
