No. My personal finances are in order in part because I don't randomly buy stupid sh*t that I don't have to.

I could only see it as useful if I had a large family with a lot of assets. A single man's budget can be written on a cocktail napkin.

For my business yes. I can't afford new computers and fancy quicken upgrades.

My personal finances are not in order.

I know it's super irresponsible, but as long as I don't have formal employment income, I'm not worrying too much about what I'm spending. Why keep a spreadsheet when it's all going to be weighted on the expenditures side? For the most part, my money (the majority of which are from student loans) goes to rent, food, and utilities. If I need clothes, want to go out, our decide to buy a few other things, whatever. I don't splurge, and now is the time to be happy. I'll make up for it later, because this time of my life is hopefully preparing me for real employment. Bad philosophy? Sure. But for someone who deals with intermittent bouts of depression, I take the motto "be happy" pretty seriously.
