"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Re:
I personally use Excel.
I split my accounts down to 4 bank accounts, 1 of them receives my income by direct deposit. The Excel sheet is the controlling by which I split the %'s I dictate out. From there, I write checks or move the money online as to what I can spend.
Each acct. has debit cards and checks.
1. Income, daily bills, expenses
2. Taxes, business expenses
3. Investment, monthly withdrawals for investment
4. Fun money.
As income comes in, I plug the # in, and the % is then split across. On the bank document you can track the individual expenses. Of course, MS MONEY and QUICKEN are both more high powered, but I control spending and saving first, then worry about where they go.
That was a combo of stuff from Richest Man and Millionaire Mind.

As of right now i have a spred sheet made like this
income
expences (all the bills including fun money)
total balance; per week, month, whole year
it's puirty much like a balance sheet. I only keep one bank account (because it's easyer), and my RRSP, morgage..... is automaticly deducted (any extra money over a certan amount I transfer to my investment account.... I don't have too many bils that very (other then gas, and fun money). I just wana be able to track my bank account on a graph, and project 2-3 months from now...... I tried MS money long time ago, and i wasn't impresed.

May I ask why you want to track your spending? I mean what is the purpose?
If you are concerned with taxes, you simple save receipts in one place. But why do you need to tarck your spending? How does this statistcis help you?
I have never kept track of it, but well.. I spend much less than you do.
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

i like to know haw much money i saved (or lost) every week, month, year......
-keeping track of haw much you make/spend gives you an idea where you'll be in 2-3 years.
-it keeps you from spending what you don't have that week (not that my account is ever under the limit)
-it gives you a big picture on what you spend and where you need to cut corners.....
-it gives you the ability to see if you'll be able to take that vacation you been planing for last five years (blaaa
)
yes i know, some smart ass is gona come on here and tell me "your thinking like a poor person....bla bla bla.." I'm a neat freak, i like my sh!t organized

Why do you want\need to know how much money you saved every week? We all knows what matter is the results, i.e. your total. Just look at your account every week.
Why do you want\need to know how much money you will have in 2-3 years? You know yoru salary, you can easily come up with a crude estimate without tinkering with numbers every week.
I don't get how it keeps you from spending. What keeps you from spending is your the way your think, not your calculator. Right?
Big pictures.. when you spend you don't feel that big picture? I alway do. I have no idea how you can spend and dont feel it.
Vacation planning: just look at you account. In a second you will know what you can afford. Why do you want to compute numbers every week?
Hey I don't mean criticizing you, but I honestly have no idea why would anyone needs to keep track of spending. What can it give me? More money? No? Less spending? Maybe, but I already spend very little.

Example. Holy crap, I spent $1200 on booze this week, $200 on chips and pop, I lent buddy $100 - Reason enough?

Changing circumstance, having a amount to save up without using credit/loan
I don't get how it keeps you from spending. What keeps you from spending is your the way your think, not your calculator. Right?
If you put the money where it belongs (car, savings, bills/rent, FOOD), the LEFTOVERS is piss-away money.
Big pictures.. when you spend you don't feel that big picture? I alway do. I have no idea how you can spend and dont feel it.
Even buy something big and find out you're short at the end and have to credit it up, exactly the case.

To save up an amount every week over time to amount to your estimated vacation costs (or goodies).

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

You spend $1200 on booze. Ok. When you were spending it, were you aware it was $1200? That it will add up to about that sum? Or you feel when you spend $300 a week for booze it is just well.. "nothing"? and it will not be anything substantial?
I cannot understand why you think keeping tarck of spending will help you. What would help you is being aware that $300 per week is a lot, and $40 per day is a lot too. Awareness, not programs or calculators.
I cannot even imagine how I would spend that kind of money on booze\chips. Thats not possible for me.
