A Bluhoneí Worksheet
The Summer Spending Worksheet
Name the number before the season names it for you.
Step 1
Your Summer Number
What's the total you're willing to spend across the entire summer — June through August?
This is your ceiling. Not a budget line. The whole season.
Step 2
Cap Each Bucket
Weddings, birthdays, graduations, trips, group dinners, hosting, social obligations
Transportation, clothing, beauty, childcare, pet care, and expenses created by being out more
Delivery, takeout, rideshares, cooling costs, drinks, convenience purchases
Your bucket total: $0
Step 3
Your Advance No
Name one expense, invitation, or obligation you will decline this summer — before the pressure arrives. Decided now, not in the moment.
You only need one. The point is to decide it now.
Step 4
What Your Budget Can Actually Absorb
Rent/mortgage, utilities, insurance, subscriptions, debt payments
Your available summer discretionary: $0
