The method

01

A running balance, always

Every entry carries the account forward. You always know the figure standing at the foot of the page — not just a pile of transactions.

02

Debit and credit, plainly

Money out in red, money in green, set in two columns like a proper statement. No mystery pie charts — just the figures.

03

Allotments and reserves

Budgets are monthly allotments you draw down. Pots are reserves, set aside and kept out of the running balance.
