    Do you remember the song by Abba? Money money money? hehe just to quote some of the lyrics below!

    Money, money, money
    Must be funny
    In the rich mans world
    Money, money, money
    Always sunny
    In the rich mans world
    Aha-ahaaa
    All the things I could do
    If I had a little money
    Its a rich mans world

    Enough with the singing ya! now back to our main topic about tracking your money spent. I used to read books teaching on how to save your money from over spending. I did managed to log all my spending for just one month. heheh and it came to my surprise that i spent more than i should spend. However that’s wasn’t my fault i think lols! i just can’t use my brain correctly, so just blame it to my cerebellums and cerebrums hahahaha.

    Things that i don’t like about tracking my spending is that at the end of the month i found out i spend lots of money that nearly made me faint! So i finally decided to stop tracking my spending for my own good.

    Basically i will track my spending by logging in all my spend daily into my PDA phone. eg:

    1) how much did i spent for my breakfast,lunch and maybe dinner

    2) My car fuel

    3) My Prepaid phone reload

    4) entertainment Expenses

    5) Others

    Then every end of the day, i will sum up all the figure to get the final result…then at the end of week i will again sum up the figure and see how much i already spent to help our economy grow (hehehhe hehehe ) then at the end of the month…i again total up all my spent…. and after getting the real figure..i will normally have to sit down to relax and to accept the fact that i spent lots of money on that month huhuhu..

    So guys what about you? do you guys track you money spent? or you never did? or you ever did but you stopped? if you still tracking your money spent you might want to share your tips on how you can track your spent wisely.

    wokey!
