2020 Budget Binder Breakdown:
Monthly and Yearly Financial Goals
The Monthly Financial Goals sheet will allow you to reflect back and figure out what you can do differently each month. It also has an area for you to write down what you need to do to reach those goals.
The Yearly Financial Goals sheet offers you a place to write out your major goals for the year.
For example, one of your yearly goals may be to save up enough money to replace the roof the windows in your home. You could then write that in for Goal #1 along with the estimated cost and a date for when you would like to have it completed by.
This will help you to see why you are saving money or cutting back on other expenses throughout the year. This can also be a place where you write in a vacation goal. It will give you a deadline to have enough money saved up for your vacation.
Monthly Bill Tracker
This sheet is here to help you pay your bills on time. One of the top financial struggles I hate to admit it, but I am definitely guilty of not paying bills on time too. Don’t you just hate having to pay a late payment fee? Those costs can really start to add up.
Monthly Budget
You can use this sheet to easily track your income and expenses each month by filling in your totals. If you prefer, you can print my blank version and fill in all of your own expenses rather than using the pre-filled categories.
I have a column for estimated so that you can budget your money and then a column for the actual amount of the expense each month.
To make it easy, I have even created a spreadsheet that will figure out the totals for you each month.
Bank Account Information
This sheet is pretty much self-explanatory, but it is nice to have all of this information together in one place. I have a separate bank account for my blog and we also have separate bank accounts for our four boys. It is nice to have the account numbers and routing information handy for when I need to make any kind of transaction. This is a great place to keep information for a savings account that you can directly deposit money into from each paycheck.

Debt Paydown
I am sure you can agree that paying down debt is extremely difficult. Being able to find extra money to put towards your debt each month is hard. You can use this printable to keep track of each creditor you have.You can print a separate sheet for each creditor. For example, you can print a copy of this debt payoff planner for your car loan and then another copy for a credit card that you have.This sheet can help you to decide which debt you are going to try to tackle first.
Blank Calendar
I like to include this calendar so that I can write down important dates and even keep track of when we will be receiving paychecks or other income. This will help you to figure out how much money you can budget each month.This is also good to use if you have a special event or party coming up so that you can plan ahead for it.{Related: Using a Gift Tracker & Budget}
Holiday & Observances

I will compare those dates to our payday schedule and make sure I am budgeting enough money.To create your own 2020 Budget Binder I recommend that you print the number of pages below.You can then put them into a 3-ring binder to keep it together and easy to manage.
