You can only view it
You have to make a copy first. Hope that helps!
@@brianturgeon Thanks, ill give it a go
How do you make a copy? It’s just a webpage showing the template. How do I save a copy into google sheets?
Ok it gave me an option to add to google sheets on my phone, just not when I clicked the link on the computer. All good. Thank you so so so much 🎉
hey brother as another young guy thats less financially educated but tryin to get better I just came across your video and gotta say thanks. me and my girlfriend are planning on moving so we are saving up and we both found this video to be really helpful. I appreciate you for being so clear and concise
Really appreciate that! Thanks for watching
@brianturgeon what this guy said
What you read !
Hell yeah! A comprehensive, direct video about how to see where your money is going. You are teachings us what we were supposed to be taught in school. Keep it up!
Absolutely wonderful. Simple, concise, no fluff. Excellent job.
I have a small local business and was struggling to keep up with my assets and liabilities, this simple spreadsheet is everything I need to stay organized and stay on top of my business/personal financial side of things. You are a G!
The absolute best video for my small business. Thank you,thank you, thank you.
This is insanely helpful, especially as someone very intimidated by both expense tracking and sheets. You made it so easy to follow and made me a little more confident about learning the tool and getting my finances under control. Thank you so much!
Thank you!
I have to thank you greatly as a young man trying to get his finances together after life started throwing mean curve balls! You have just simplified my living experience and I appreciate you greatly
I had given up on Sheet tutorials for Finance Tracking. But this right here is so simple yet effective template. Amazing !
Brian, I can't thank you enough for this video! I've been tracking my expenses since 2017, I experimented with numerous versions, created my own, used mobile applications but without a doubt, the one you've shared is the most exceptional. I've already started to use it, I slightly customized it so that it fits better to what I need. I've always struggled with sheets having too much information that I ended up not analyzing it at all. Your solution is incredibly precise and minimalist while capturing the core of financial tracking. Thank you!
Thank you so much! Glad it helped!
WELL DONE!!! Thank you for taking the time to record this! MUCH Appreciated.
I'm trying to get on my feet again and recover from a work related burnout, by re-learning new ways of productivity and organisation for my personal life, and one of the main steps is getting my finances in control again.
This video of yours is perfect, you're so clear and easy to follow, I've learned so much and can use it on my own Budget Tracker.
Great work!! Thank you so much
Thank you! Glad to hear it!
I could cry! I've been looking for something simple! I thought I should be able to do it easily but everything I found was so complex or didn't work how I wanted. Your video was so easy to follow and I'm about to test out your template!
Clear, concise and to the point and exactly what I was looking for. Brilliant! Thank you
Thank you!
Great Job! Very well executed, as you mentioned in your last line that you have worked hard on this video. We can clearly see how much you have invested in getting this video to near perfect from your vocabulary to tone to simplicity and doing it on the fly is amazing. Keep up the good work. Do not give up churning videos like this.
🙏🏼Thank you so much for your help. Your instructions were clear and easy to follow. Thank you for being so helpful, Brian.
I don't even need a spreadsheet like this and still watched the whole thing. Well done!
This was the best video. You explained this in a way that I GOT IT!! I have been searching for someone that had a simple way to explain this all to me. YOU NAILED IT!!!
Tip: on the transactions tab, arrange activity in chronological order, oldest at the top, add new current rows at the bottom. Why? Doing so spares you the hassle of INSERTING a new row for every single event. There are ample empty rows at the bottom. Plus, chronological order just makes sense to view. Bonus tip: place a running sum column on the right side of the main tab. Just be sure to count income as a positive and expenses as a negative. (I've been doing this since the 1990s.) Good video.
You mind sending a formula for that?
@@Jonesy02445 =SUM(Cell#:Cell#) In the paranthesis are the cells you want to calculate Example: (A1:A10). This is a formula that works in Excel I’m going to assume its the same as Google Sheets I could be wrong, but if you can locate the autosum function and click on it when you are at the bottom of the sheet then you can use it as a Total row.
Isn’t the running sum column just the same as the net income table ? Or do you mean the sum of the transactions ? That also requires a starting total of the balance
A running sum can REALLY slow down the processing speed of even a fast computer. His method avoids this, and is worth the extra effort.
Exceptional work
This is brilliant! Thank you so much for sharing. I needed a way to analyze my financials and followed your instructions. I added loan repayments, investments and savings to the Journal and now I am all set:)
This was GREAT! The only thing I did differently was I didn't make an accounts page. Since I was adding all my expenses from top to bottom it just made sense to format the entire column in the journal sheet for that drop down menu to track. Thanks for making this sooooo easy!
Thanks Brian! This is exactly what I have been looking for!!! EXCELLENT TUTORIAL!
Hi!
This is, for me, the best "easiest way" for create an efficient financial tracker on google sheets.
Super simple to do and it works really good!
I really appreciate that video.
Thank you!
Great tutorial, thank you so much for taking your time and walking through everything. It's a great video. We can see all of your hard work. Much appreciated.
Thanks for this amazing and simple method. For a guy like me monitoring money is a must and what way better than knowing what each column actually does rather than using apps that confuse you. Also, with this way, as I created it my own(with your help), I will now make sure I script everything in it, and won't be the lazy guy again. Thanks again and I wish you good health and peace. :)
This is a game changer for me. The reporting tables are so useful, thanks Brian 🙏
Thank you! Started a new job and taking on a lot of bills and this helped more than any budgeting app. Perfect tutorial!
Well done .. amazing work
Clarity and ease of use is amazing, thumbs up!
Not gonna lie man as someone who's Excel/Sheets illiterate this saved me so much hassle. Thank you so much.
I've been wondering how to follow my expenses and revenues more efficiently in google sheets.
You just made my life easier, thank you
Looking forward to giving this a try! Thank you for all your time, thoughtfulness and effort. Very well done!
Love it! Great job! Will use it to improve my overly complicated expense tracker requiring way too much time and actions to get the same results as yours!
OMG This is the best video I have ever come across. Your voice is so calming and you take your time in explaining each step without screaming or loud using too many unnecessary words which is so vital to understand. This is my 1st time doing a google sheet and I'm so stoked that I could create one while watching your video simultaneously. Thank you so very much.
Thank you!
So excited! You have helped me so much for setting up my spreadsheet for 2024!
Very nice!
This is one of the best 20 minutes spent watching a video.
A tool that one can use for life and with spreadsheets from different developers being similar enough in how they work, this video can help with Excel, Softmaker, Open Office, Free Office, etc.
👏
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed!
Thank you for this! Very easy to learn and follow along, looking forward to viewing your other videos.

Hey Brian, Appreciate you making this video, learned a lot!
Thank you so much for this! Super Useful and Easy to set up.
Thanks for being a blessing my brother💯🔥🔥, May the Lord continue to bless you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
awesome!
Great tutorial and a very good alternative for excel, because everything is easier to find and if not, you tell it where I can find it. I only have a problem inkeping it up to date in real time, because for every expense to fill it in each time you spend takes time, because you have to open your sheet and fill in the data. And if you import the data from your bankaccount, it seldom says expense or revenue in the description
man this is amazing. Of course i found your like to it after i copied everything you said to do LOL. All that work and you gave it our for free. Thank You!
Thank you for showing an easy way to do such a tracker 👍😊
This video is excellent. Worked perfectly. Could have never figured this out. I would have paid for this information.
I agree with every favorable comment here! This is an important issue for most of us whether we know it or not and the tool you have created is brilliant! Your presentation of it is one of the best tutorials on any subject I've ever seen on UA-cam! Thank you!
You are so good, I am just going to ask... something I worry about is saving all my files in Drive onto my Mac's hard drive. I've googled a bit, but all of the videos are nowhere near as clear, comprehensive and helpful as what you've done here. If you have any guidance, I'd appreciate it and if you think it's worth your time... I'm sure plenty of other people would appreciate a video about it.
Also... I just LOVED the random UCONN best of video! Brought a smile to my face and just said so much about what a real person you are!!!
Very well done! Thanks for the helpful video!
This was SO helpful, thank you!!!
I’ve never used Sheets before. This was a great tutorial and I made my kids help me too so they could learn. Thank you!
This is really empowering to create my own expense spreadsheet! Thank you so much for making this video!! You made it so easy.
Thank you so much! much appreciated
