My 2025 Monthly Budget

 


I keep my monthly budget pretty simple tracking all expenses in an excel spreadsheet.  By tracking my expenses throughout the year I am able to easily project what my future expenses may be, adjusting as needed, to make sure I don’t overspend.

 


My current budget set for 2025 is based on my spending last year.  I’ve increased and decreased these budget categories accordingly and now will begin the year doing my best to work within these new budgets

 


My monthly expenses are really low.  This year my budgets are as shown in the above photo plus whatever my electric, water, sewer and trash bills happen to be.  I do my best to keep my utility bills as low as possible, however I also know there is a limit to just how much I can control these expenses overall so when they arrive I know I need to pay them regardless of the amounts.  That is, if I want to continue to have utilities, which I do.

 


I’m sure to most people my budgets seem very low, maybe too low, but I live quite happily and comfortably within them.  I just like to keep it simple.
