ORGANIZE YOUR MONEY
LINKS TO HELP YOU ON YOUR WAY
If you’re here, it means you’re reading my zine, Organize Your Money: Getting Started on the Path to Financial Freedom.
Below you will find links to the money managing spreadsheet, as well as other helpful resources to help you get organized and intentional with your finances. If you want additional support, I offer 1:1 coaching and would be happy to help you set up some systems for success!
First and foremost, here is a link to the Google Sheet that will help you ORGANIZE YOUR MONEY. It’s essentially a debt:equity calculator, but I’m calling it the FINANCIAL FREEDOM DASHBOARD. You can copy it to your own Google Drive to edit, or if you don’t want it stored online you can download a copy to your computer and edit it with your favorite spreadsheet software.
RECOMMENDED READING
Throughout the zine, I suggest books you might want to read to deepen your knowledge of financial freedom strategies. I’ve created a collection of them in my BOOKSHOP.ORG site, that both supports independent bookstores and gives me a little kickback. You might want to try borrowing a copy from your local library to save money and reduce waste. If you’re more of an audiobook person, I suggest using either Libby (free with your library card) or LIBRO.FM (also supports small booksellers instead of you-know-who.
CREDIT SCORE
You can check your credit score at the link below. Your bank or credit union also might have a credit score widget on your account page that can help you monitor you score.
BUDGET BALANCE
Use this handy tool to calculate expense ratios based on your income. See page 46 in the zine for more details.
RETIREMENT CALCULATORS
There are lots of different retirement calculators online. I tend to prefer those rooted in the Financial Independence movement, although the movement as a whole has some problematic elements. Below are a few you might consider using.
