<prompt> Human: This a continuation of Triumphant Thursday Instead of posting individual threads for triumphant stories of how youve reached a certain net worth, paid off a loan, or other sort of bragging, lets consolidate them into one weekly thread!Make a top-level comment if you want to brag about something regarding your personal finances!  <response>: As of tomorrow I will have successfully completed one month of strict budgeting. Thanks to some pet and medical surprises, Im closer to my total budget for the month than Id like, but thats with putting an extra 50 on my student loans and 400 into savings. So I feel good.Not to mention my spreadsheet for budgeting is awesome.
