Course Prework

Only 2 more weeks before the Good $ense Budget Course starts!! Hopefully you are all looking forward to the course. I know I am. As mentioned in the course info, there is some prework that course attendees should do before coming to the class. It is found in the workbooks which you can pickup in the Vintage21 lobby on Sunday, January 6. Or, better yet, download the prework here and you can get a jumpstart! Instructions are in the document itself, and you should probably allow 1-2 hours to complete the work. Doing the prework will get you some of the base information that will be critical in the course. Don't worry - You will not have to turn this in or share with anyone else. Couples should work together on the prework, except that you will want to separately complete a Money Motivation Quiz (pg 13-14).


Within the prework, on page 11, you are asked to complete a rough guess at "What I Spend". This data will be used in the course as we refine your budget (aka "spending plan"). If you have Microsoft Excel, there is an XLS version of that spreadsheet, which you may prefer to use instead of writing on the form and manually adding the numbers. Either method is OK.

Please contact Blain if you have any questions.
