We've been doing YNAB for about 3 weeks now and probably the most helpful thing so far is seeing exactly how many different things we spend money on! Being forced to categorize everything you buy is pretty eye-opening.
I'm anxious to be able to do my taxes because if my refund is similar to last year, it should be enough for our one-month buffer. Once we've got that I feel like we can really get going on paying down our debts. I also get paid weekly, so to start off I've been budgeting every week after I get paid. Once we've got the buffer in place we can start budgeting monthly, which will be nice.
