Good thing for end of month statements. Otherwise you'd have to complete it with less favorable numbers!
What kind of spreadsheet?
Net worth spreadsheet. Or, realistically, just a good way to look at my overall financial picture. I don’t really care much about the net worth number.
Ahh, ok. I do mine yearly, at the same time I do my taxes. I only wish I'd started doing it decades ago.
This week is my least favorite part of the work year. I’m a manager and we have to spend 4+ hours in meetings ranking people and fighting for or challenging bonus numbers. On the plus side I fought for (and I think got) a bigger bonus for my most senior and productive report. On the downside I (voluntarily) put in a smaller bonus for a promising junior report who had a bad quarter. The next layer of management above me gets to do the same thing debating bonuses for me and my peers.
