Getting your finances in order

Teaming up with Jean Chatzky, the great folks at FranklinCovey ^[2] have created a product that helps you organize your time AND your finances. It’s called the Making Money Make Sense Collection ^[3]. The weekly planner incorporates Jean’s best thinking into an organized layout to help manage your life and your money with ease and effectiveness. Each week features a spending plan tracker so you can put into practice strategies for managing your money by comparing actual weekly expenditures to planned costs in a variety of categories. It’s a budget ^[4] that you WILL look at on a daily basis (provided you use the calendar!).

• One year of two-pages-per-week planner pages with unique weekly quotes from Jean
• Tabbed section with strategies for reducing debt and saving money
• Two-page monthly calendar tabs
• Tabbed dividers for address/phone pages, planning calendars, planner guide, spending plan, receipt holder, financial goals, and key information pages

You might not like budgeting ^[4] software and prefer the personal touch and feel of paper and pen. So, if you’re looking for a personal calendar that will keep you accountable on a daily basis, the Making Money Make Sense Collection ^[3] from FranklinCovey ^[2] may just be what you’re looking for.
