<prompt> Human: I love making budgets. Busting out Excel to make a glorious spreadsheet that practically predicts the future. However, my problem is that I dont do much beyond that. I make a budget, look at my numbers and think ya, gotta cut back there and there but after maybe a couple of weeks of tracking my numbers, I stop... well... caring. Meh, Ill stop in at Starbucks. Why not. and essentially throw the budget to the wind.My question is: how do you get yourself to care enough to keep up with keeping on top of your spending and your budget? Ive tried using Mint and YNAB and even my one big Excel spreadsheet, but it all ends the same - a few weeks in and Im not really worrying about it anymore. How about you?  <response>: Ive used YNAB for about 5 months now. The big thing that keeps me updating weekly is the Net worth graph. I love seeing it grow!
