jforjuanchoon Ask HN: How do you record your personal finances?

I was in the same position last year, here's what I did:

- First month: Downloaded YNAB; every day or two, I logged into my bank accounts and check all transactions, added transactions to YNAB (creating budget categories as necessary). By the end of the month, I had a budget (a very bad budget).

- Second month: Review all expenses of previous month and create upper bounds for budget categories (groceries, gas, going out money, books, etc.), removing "unnecessary" expenses (mostly monthly subscriptions). Wrote scrapper for fetching bank transactions.

- Third month: Review last month budget and adjust accordantly.

And that's it. Just keep it simple.
