<prompt> Human: Im a tipped employee who takes home my main source of income on a daily basis, which can make it hard to budget correctly. Its easy to spend money when you constantly have a little cash in your wallet. Recently, I decided to crack down, and actually came up with a system that has worked spectacularly. I have very minimal expenses and make a decent living, but Im still shocked and proud of myself that I managed to save nearly 1500 in less than a month following this method. This plan might not work as well for those who take home a bi-weekly paycheck, but as someone who has lived off tips for over 10 years, it has worked amazingly. I think of it as a mashup as the envelope formula and gamifying your money.I set a goal of putting away 55 every day from my tips, even on days I dont work. I set up an excel chart to track this. I used a basic knowledge of the program to set up formulas tracking my goal, the actual amount saved, and how on track, i was based off how much money i decided to save for the day. The part that really gamified it for me was color coding the on track column to either show red or green based on whether or not I was on par for my goal. It actually became fun to know how much money I needed to put away every day to see the little box turn green, and even more fun to know when I was well over my goal. For some reason, this color coded excel chart helped me save money quicker than anything Ive ever tried before, and Im looking forward to continue using this method and seeing how much I can potentially save.Edit: Since so many people have been asking, I thought Id include a little idea of what my monthly budget looks like.Rent: 500Phone: 100Electric: 75Car InsuranceGas : 100Groceries: 300Debt: 0Everything Else: 200-400 Netflix, Home Supplies, Eating out, Personal Care, etc.Total Monthly Budget: 1,275 - 1,475Total Needed Net Income to add 1,650 into Savings Plan: 2,925 - 3,125  <response>: Never got math.
