 It's been so long since I've had a TV that it just seems insane to me to spend nearly $100/mo on one. When are your contracts up? Make sure they are not auto-renewing. Find out how long it takes to break out of the TV and phone contract. It may be less than you think or more than you want to pay, but either way you should know where you stand.

But yeah, your food/entertainment/misc category is the real leak here. That's so much money disappearing. Where is that going? Get on Mint or just go to your bank and find the transaction history and go through that, there's really no excuse. Are you using a debit card for all these transactions?

My Rhythmic Crotch posted:

YNAB is "you need a budget" which is a goon-made piece of software for budgeting. Many goons swear by it, I along with others find it hard to follow when people post screenshots.
I also dislike YNAB but whatever, they sent me a free shirt and some people like them. I find either Mint or a simple spreadsheet to be much easier to look at and understand.
