Family Budget

Executive Summary

My wife and I have struggled over the years to develop and stick to a budget that works for us. The spreadsheet that I have created overtime seems to be much too complex and time consuming for us to maintain. I have also tried many other solutions (e.g. Mint.com) to try and streamline the process, but nothing seems to be comprehensive enough for our planning needs. We need a solution that has an easy-to-use interface and yet complex enough to keep track of all the unique details of our budget.


“Budget Dreamland” is the answer to this qualm. It is an easy-to-use budget program with a simple interface. Users can insert expenses and income, compare program data with online sources, run reports as well as other common tasks.


Note: "Budget Dreamland" contains a zip file which includes "Budget Dreamland.xlsm" as well as a "Receipts" folder which need to be in the same folder as the excel file. An error occurred when I tried to upload the excel file individually.
