Online Personal Budgeting Tool: This personal budgeting tool contains ten main spending categories, with numerous editable subcategories under each.

As you enter your projected expenses, the tool subtracts your expense total from your monthly income total, allowing you to quickly see if changes need to be made to your spending plan. When you're satisfied with your budget, you can export it to an Excel file and save it to your computer for future reference.
