Once you get the hang of it, it is so much more intuitive! </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1849916 Thu, 04 Sep 2014 21:06:13 +0000 BabyMats 1849916@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: thanks i already signed up for some of the classes :grin: </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1849914 Thu, 04 Sep 2014 21:05:45 +0000 jetsa 1849914@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: you have to enter each transaction individually it will pull then from your account but you need to approve them. It wants you to be conscious of your spending </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1849909 Thu, 04 Sep 2014 21:04:48 +0000 .twist. 1849909@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyMats: Good Luck! :goodluck: Their website has a LOT of resources so don't be afraid to go searching! It's very informative and helpful. </p> <p>@travellingbee: Yes, you have to enter them. They do not sync with your bank in any way. There is an import feature, but your bank and YNAB will never be "linked". </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1849903 Thu, 04 Sep 2014 21:01:14 +0000 travellingbee 1849903@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting...Quick question- do you have to manually enter each transaction in (like a check book?) or does it pull information from your accounts and do it automatically? </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1849888 Thu, 04 Sep 2014 20:52:45 +0000 BabyMats 1849888@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought it and will get together with the hubs to start a budget. I have never budgeted before..Hopefully it will help us out! </p> <p>Thanks@jetsa: </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1849821 Thu, 04 Sep 2014 20:19:08 +0000 .twist. 1849821@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@HabesBabe: There is definitely tracking. The initial set up and learning curve may take a few weeks, but now that I'm more than a month in I can sit down for 10 - 15 mins once a week and get it all done. Honestly, I'm not great with tracking things either, but I have come to really ENJOY doing our budget and I often find myself checking it even when I don't need to or looking forward to entering certain things. </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1849531 Thu, 04 Sep 2014 17:38:25 +0000 HabesBabe 1849531@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it really time consuming? We don't budget (tsk tsk, SO BAD, I know) and I'm lazy when it comes to stuff like tracking. Tracking ANYTHING (which is why I could never join Weight Watchers). </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1849419 Thu, 04 Sep 2014 16:09:54 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1849419@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@MediaNaranja: @DisneyBee: Woohoo!!!

Can't wait to install it tonight and check it out.

I'm just not a numbers person so I am glad he's talking care of it all </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846918 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:49:31 +0000 .twist. 1846918@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: You can use one of the apps too! They're free and user friendly. :D </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846917 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:49:30 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1846917@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@dreamocracy: I used to have a really detailed spreadsheet too, but this program makes budgeting so much easier... and fun!</p> <p>@Smurfette: Buy it on your home computer, but you can only access it from computers you download it to. Like I can't just type in a URL, login, and see my budget. It's a desktop app, not cloud based. </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846908 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:47:52 +0000 Smurfette 1846908@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: I usually do our banking first thing when I get to work, before I actually start work. But I wouldn't want a software on my computer. I will do it at home. </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846899 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:45:35 +0000 .twist. 1846899@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: I would buy it on the computer you will be using it on. It is software you have to download. You can download it again on another computer, but I would not download it onto, say, my work computer. </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846887 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:42:45 +0000 Smurfette 1846887@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: We are currently doing a total 180 with our finances. And part of it is a new budgeting tool. I use excel now. I don't like Mint. So I was going to give this a try. Do I need to buy it on my home computer? or is a system I can access from multiple computers? </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846842 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:23:48 +0000 .twist. 1846842@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheert16: Not online based. It's one of the reasons I was comfortable using it, because I do not need my banking linked anywhere else on the internet besides the bank it's associated with. </p> <p>@dreamocracy: My original spread sheet was insanely detailed. I ended up going with this because I don't have to adjust hardly anything, entering amounts in cannot be miscalculated (unless I enter it wrong in the first place, but it's WAY easier to catch now). I mean, ultimately, if you have something that works for you already, then you are probably set. ;) </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846810 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:14:20 +0000 jetsa 1846810@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheert16: I hadn't in over a year so your good! It's not really online based you download the program and then input your transactions. You just follow the category balances instead of your checking account. </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846805 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:13:26 +0000 fairy 1846805@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>I was looking into this.. but my husband's custom spreadsheets are just about the same thing! Haha, we are pretty crazy with budgeting </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off/page/2#post-1846799 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:12:37 +0000 cheert16 1846799@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@jetsa: I don't even track transactions! yikes! </p> <p>@.twist.: is it an online based program? I totally just watched toe video and it looks like it would be perfect! </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off#post-1846781 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:08:05 +0000 lawbee11 1846781@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheert16: We've never had a budget either. I'm hoping this will help! </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off#post-1846769 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:05:28 +0000 .twist. 1846769@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheert16: I do, I think you are probably at an advantage because you haven't been forecasting your budget, like I was for so many years! </p> <p>It's a pretty simple spread sheet, easy to use and the guides are very informative. </p> <p>If anything, there is a free 34 day trial and it's definitely worth looking into to see if it would be something you found helpful. </p> <p>I don't think it gets much easier than this. Even if you just used excel, you'd have to create the spreadsheet, do the math. This program does all that for you. :D </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off#post-1846758 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 10:02:20 +0000 jetsa 1846758@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheert16: we've never had a budget either!

Is this a good first step tool? or should I do something else first then this? </p> https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off#post-1846664 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 09:38:01 +0000 .twist. 1846664@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: and about other people budgeting? hahaha </p> [attach=1438/14/nbbxze.443x600.uncle-sam.png] https://deals.hellobee.com/topic/ynab-50-off#post-1846654 Wed, 03 Sep 2014 09:34:30 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1846654@https://deals.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: Same!
