(It does not contain any VBA scripting so might work in other spreadsheet software, but I have not tested this.) How do I use it?ĭownload the financial-plan.xlsx file and open it using Microsoft Excel. I use it and find it helpful so I've shared it with the public for you to do with as you please. They're designed to be hard / impossible to mess up and usually include free technical support.Īlthough I've tried to make this spreadsheet pretty robust (shouldn't be able to get wrong answers without intentionally disabling the worksheet protection feature) and easy to tailor to your needs, I make no guarantees about the accuracy of its calcuations, its reliability, or any other concern. If you're not comfortable working with an Excel spreadsheet and aren't interested in learning that, I recommend using a budgeting app like EveryDollar instead. I think it is a good compromise between a full-blown accounting system (I had been using GnuCash for years)Īnd pencil and paper (if you do this by hand, props to you for your patience and organization!).ĭISCLAIMER: Although it works great for my purposes, I'm an engineer and enjoy numbers, spreadsheets, formulas, source code, etc.
