Do you autistically track your expenses?

[Anonymous No.57000590]

Or do you just wing it?

Just wing it

I wing it, I have a rough estimate of a full on "consoooomer" level of spending for a month versus a frugal level of spending. Even if I go full on retard spending I'll still have a quarter of my take home pay to buy Bitcoin with.

I'm the most autistic person when it comes to finances, you'll ever meet. I'm not even joking

I stopped tracking my expenses and autistically "saving" once I realized one 2x or -50% on anything will instantly wipe out every gain I ever made shopping for groceries with coupons or buying the off brand thing instead of the name brand to save $.50

I report my individual expenses in a spreadsheet at the end of the month and I make subtotals by categories. I have done that every month since 2017.
My spreadsheet is also connected to a crypto and stocks api so it calculates my net worth in real time.

Did this ever lead to actionable results?
Did you change your spending habits based on your spreadsheet?

Yeah I optimize a few things almost every month. I cancel subscriptions I don't use for example. If i didn't do this little exercise every month I would likely be carrying useless subscriptions for months or years because it's the only time I look at my bank accounts.
Also It's fun to have a graph of my monthly expenses by categories over several years.

Yep, I add up the price of each individual item when grocery shopping in my head. Almost never buy anything that isnt discounted.

Yes. I use money manager ex and track every cent over several accounts.
Shame it doesnt have crypto support yet.
