Family Budget Tool
Are you ready to make a budget? These are the three most important keys to having a successful budget that really works:
- Make realistic goals you can keep
Don’t put down $0 for entertainment expenses if you know you are going to spend more than that. Be honest with yourself. - Learn new ways to manage your money
There are many ways to save money, get better credit, and make your money grow. - Maintain your budget
Creating a budget is just the start. The only way it will work is if you remember to update your expenses and make changes during the month to make sure you stay on track.

I am trying set up a budget for our family, where we could still live comfortable and be able to put away some money every month
I am trying to save more money for the future.
Building a budget to save for moving in Aug
I already had a budget complete for months now. Is there any way to access my budget or do i have to start all over?
Thanks
Hi, I just entered income and expenses info in the family budget tool. I then went to update this month's income and expenses. The expenses area has the same fields as the income. For some reason it does not take me to a list of my expenses to input this month's numbers. Thanks for any guidance!
Lee-Is the new Budget Builder in place now? If not, how will I know that it is ready to use?
Need this for a project
I'm happy!
WHY IS BUDGETING SO HARD?
Hi, this is Lee, I am a producer for this section and the Family Budget Tool. We are in final stages of the new Budget Builder a tool that tracks expenses and helps you prepare a budget more simply. We are launching this tool in February 2009. Hang in there a little longer and we'll have something here that will be much easier and more helpful for you and your households to use.
Error message says "unable to send E-mail". I understand without the email, access to your site is limited. Please review.
Completed the budget tool-hooray, BUT can't update the expenses section of the monthly financials, keeps showing only the income update page-help
A good budget is important for our retirement planning.
thank you
I am having the same problem with the entering expense information.
We used budget tool for the first time. Entered Income and Expense information. When we went to update financial info, the income fields showed up just fine. When we went to enter expense info, however, the categories didn't change to expense fields, they stayed as income. Is this a glitch that is being worked out? Thanks.

looking for help
I really like this website.
Hi brookechcdc, I am the Producer of the Beehive Money section. We are in final stages of a new and improved budget tool available in both English and Spanish. It is now in a testing stage and should be available on the site in early January, 2009. Please let us know how you and your clients find the new tool.
The family budget tool is very useful, but will you ever provide it in Spanish? I love that I can change the language of the site, but I noticed that the Spanish version lacks the Family Budget Tool. Is it in your future plans to create one in Spanish? It would be a great help at my organization, but only in Spanish.
David & Jenni -
I am the Senior Vice President for Media at One Economy. I will look into this personally and get the problem-solved. Please give it a try tomorrow evening or Thursday morning at the latest. If we are having trouble I will post back to this forum! Rob Bole
I have tried using the new, improved website and cannot log in no matter how many times I try. I prefer the old one. I even had to set up a new account and password and my password will not work when trying to log into the Family Budget Tool.
