How I Manage My Finances in my 20s | Personal Finance System 2020 (Savings, Cards, Spreadsheets)

🎬 Video
ℹ️ Description

In this video, I talk about how I manage my finances in my 20s. My personal finance system is divided into two parts: Cash and Investments. For today, I'll discuss be how my cash system works.

I've started seriously managing my personal finances when I turned 18. There's a lot that I've learned since then, so I make videos like these to the things I've learned from my experiences.

Some of you guys have been asking me about how many bank accounts you should have. All in all, I have 13 "cash accounts" 🤯 This is made up of the cash I have on hand (3), my bank accounts (5), and my e-wallets (5). I know this sounds crazy, but hear me out!

I like to have separate accounts to separate my funds according to what I intend to use them for. If you put your funds all in one account, it can get tempting to spend them in one go. By having separate accounts, it makes it a bit harder for me to access some funds. As a result, I'm able to curb my impulse buying urges because it literally takes more effort to spend my money.

I also have a spreadsheet where I track everything! In this video, I'll be talking about my expense tracking spreadsheet, as well as how I track my general financial standing (net worth).

I also use google sheet and I have a google form linked to the spreadsheet so I can input my transactions easier. It's difficult kasi to input sa spreadsheet pag sa phone haha and I have a shortcut sa home screen ko para mag open yung google form

I also have a spreadsheet that track my income and expenses. I started it last year. Now I also want to start making an investment tracker/portfolio when I saw yours. Plus points for the pie chart

I use an app called expense manager so I can easily and immediately input expenses after spending. Then by day's end or after a few days I transfer everything to my spreadsheet. After years of tracking, I've come to a good balance of specificity and general categories.
Appreciate the content. Good job. 👌

How I wish that I have saved earlier when I was still in my teens, now that Im in my 30's na, medio mahirap nang mag ipon.. At sana mahikayat mo pa ang marami sa kabataan ngayon to be moneywise and invest.. And be financially independent and secure early.. Hope to learn more in your next videos.. Cheers
Author — Mr__Clyde

BEEN A WHILE since I last your vids hahahaha but this is great and I am interested sa GSheets hahaha

Also wow if I have a daughter I will teach her to save early unlike her momma hahaha

Also, does Union Bank have this annual card fee? I tried applying once and did not go through cause I wasn't so sure if other banks had it too. Haha!

Great job Nicole!!

Hi! I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who's tracking its personal expenses and assets!! 😂😂😂 Anyways, I just want to recommend an application, it's called Money Manager available at the Play store (I don't know if it's also available for iPhone users) But, I have been using it for 2 years now. It really helps me to keep track of all of my personal expenses every day. Hope it helps!

From ur blogs pa lang I really liked ur spreadsheets already. Couldn't wait for u to put out a tutorial on how to make it so I just recreated it on my own 😅
