The Prudent Plastic Surgeon
In this post, Jordan Frey shines a spotlight on the way money flows into and out of his household every month. This detailed post has a great breakdown of where all his family’s money goes, even accounting for 1% for gas and 1% for clothing!
This was really interesting to me, as in the past I’ve done a similar detailed breakdown of my family’s spending as well.

I didn’t account for every dollar in my own analysis, though, so I’m interested to revamp this in light of our complete financial picture now.
