I used YNAB for about 1.5 years and got myself out of debt. I messed up my budget some how, stopped using YNAB for over 2 years and racked up debt again.🤦🏻‍♀️ I wanted to get myself back in control with YNAB, starting in 2025. I did a “refresh” (such an awesome feature!), watched like 8-10 hours of YNAB KZbin videos, but they never explained the whole picture, or actual transactions, or what the symbols mean! Then I found this video, and I feel so much better! I understand the different target options, the different yellow colors, etc.! Thank you Nick for such a simple, but thorough training! ❤🙏🏼

Weekly is a great option for those that want to do things on a bi-weekly cycle. The problem is YNAB doesn't have an "every 2 weeks" option. Say I want to fund my IRA $269.30 after each bi-weekly payday, but I cannot do that cycle. Instead, I set aside $134.65 per week which equates to the $269.30 I'm really shooting for. I do this for all of my bills that are not due monthly. This helps remove or lessen the "3rd paycheck" twice a year as I'm already funding the majority of my sinking fund/"true expense" categories based on 52 weeks with half of the amount per (26) pay periods, and not 24.

Possible solutions to to bi-weekly pay cycles: 1. budget based on 2 paychecks per month (resulting in 2 bonus paychecks per year), or 2. (preferred) get one month ahead and budget based on total expected annual income divided by 12 months --- this method gives you a budget that more accurately reflects you expected income... and being one month ahead mitigates the bi-weekly irregularities I have a different question though... How do you recommend budgeting around say, once-per-year income (e.g., tax return, predictable bonus, etc.)? Or do you at all?

Thank you so much for this guide and the checklists. I haven't used YNAB in years and I decided to start again in order to become more financially confident this year and get rid of my CC debt. While I love certain aspects of YNAB, one thing keeps tripping me up. I have a question. How do you move money between linked accounts and NOT let it affect the budget in YNAB? Here's my scenario: I set up my YNAB and my Bank Accounts where each category has its own bank account. I have a main bank account that collects all incoming money and then I disperse accordingly. I would budget the money on YNAB and then move the money accordingly in my accounts. However, when I have to reconcile the transfers between accounts it messes up the budget and I get confused. Also I try to just adjust the bank accounts manually to reflect the current balance but when the transfers/transactions come in, it inflates how much actual money I have available to me.

I, like you, own my own business. Should I have a separate personal & business YNAB? I remember a long ago vid of yours where you talk about how to pay yourself from your business, etc. Does that vid still apply? 😂 I see that this vid is for those who work for someone else, though you do show briefly income to your business. I think what I need is another primer on how to use YNAB for self-employed people, with regard to planning for taxes, business vs. Personal expenses, etc. If the old vid still applies, I'll review that. What if you own 2 very different businesses? My husband has a business with a ton of transactions and which is our primary income at the moment. I'm just starting my own online business that I'm planning to build to a primary income size this year. Should I keep the two separate? Sounds like I need to hire you to help, right? Lol. Thank you for these transformative vids! 😊

Okay, so this is how I manage it. I am self-employed/own a business and have set up two budgets in YNAB, one personal and one for the business. Every time I get paid or receive money on my business bank account, I use the Profit First methodology to divide the income into five categories: Operating Expenses, Owner´s Pay, Taxes, Profit and VAT. I'm not sure how it works where you live, but in Finland we collect VAT (tax) on top of our pricing which we later pay to the tax administration (minus the VAT included in our expenses). I have figured out the percentage of income that should be allocated to each category and when the income has been split into these categories I simply move the amounts of everything except Operating Expenses to a corresponding YNAB category. The remaining amount (Operating Expenses) I move back into Ready to Assign and then I start assigning it to each expense category in my budget. When I pay for something that includes VAT i split the transaction so the cost is assigned to the correct category and the VAT-amount is assigned to my VAT category (so in theory my VAT category should always include at least a sufficient amount for my next VAT payment, usually a bit extra. It's not always super easy to know if I can pay myself enough salary depending on cash flow, but generally I'm confident that I'm on the right track if there is money allocated for Owner's pay (my salary) and all of the expense categories also have sufficient amounts allocated. With time you can adjust your percentages for every Profit First category or allocate the extras to a buffer category. Hope this helps! I'm sure Nick has some more sofisticated insights into this, but this is how I do it currently.

I would love to see a video on how to take control again of YNAB. In my case, I started great and the first 2 years of using it were amazing, but then I had a lot of problems in life (family with diseases, deaths, change of jobs and moving to multiple places, etc) and I completely stopped logging all my financial movements but as problems grew, gladly my income did too so I want to have more control of it. i had programmed all my recurrent payments and stuff but I now its a mess. i don’t want to lose all the logs I made before to see how it compares to my actual life… but I haven’t touched YNAB in 2 years. What would be the fastest way to reutilize my account without starting from scratch?

I do a lot more seperation of funds (for instance, there is no way I am tying Venmo to my primary account) but still need to be able to knwo how much I need to move to a specific account to cover everything under it. YNAB jsut isn't set up for that in a clear way.

I just wish the targets could allow for an internal sub-category of due dates/amounts. E.g. for my automobiles registration renewals, I'd like to be able to just have one "Auto DMV" category, and set the 3 dates and different amounts my 3 annual DMV renewals are due and have YNAB give me the best escrow amount to set aside per month to not "over save" but always have enough available to pay any given registration. At this point I just manually add the 3 DMV renewals and then divide by 52 and set aside that amount per week. But then when I get the new DMV renewal notice, and inevitably the taxes go up, I now have to open my spreadsheet, update that amount and see the new monthly target amount to tell YNAB. My point is that YNAB should allow me to eliminate having to set up separate spreadsheets. I could create 3 different DMV categories, one for each auto. But then I also need to do this for 3x auto-insurance categories, and 3x smog check categories... in truth, I just have one single "Auto Ins/DMV/Smog" which uses a spreadsheet to total all of these up and gives me a weekly target (but that's a bit more complicated, as insurance is due every 6, DMV every 12, smog every 24 months).

We pay many of our bills via credit card and then pay the credit card off monthly. How does this work when setting up my categories?

I do too! We use a Credit Card for everything. I do cover in detail how to use credit cards later in the video. I also have a dedicated Credit Card video you'll want to watch here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHrbYX2fl8hjgtksi=FMFVHYzlPOT7KBkx

Hi - I did a Fresh Start for 2025 and in reconciling and adding entries, i accidentally deleted the "Starting Balance" - Category Not Needed entry. I cannot find where to do that. I was going to duplicate the entry and then move it, but duplicate creates an Inflow Category. Any help would be appreciated FYI - this was for my Checking Account so it would be a positive # I add. Not sure if that makes a difference - thx

Wonderful talk. Do you have any fund for, "True Emergencies"? LOL, not aiming at the play on your name, but it would double fit in your case. * urgent * nescessary * unpredictable

When transactions are still pending, do you assign them to their respective category or wait for them to post?

I do put them in often times, but you need to be careful. Don't enter anything where the amount will change - like a restaurant where you tip, or haircuts with tips, ubers, and certain online orders. If the amount that it shows when pending is different than when it posts, YNAB won't "match" the transactions and link them together. Then you'll end up with a duplicate you need to find a delete.

How would you do property tax that is due in two payments at irregular intervals? Lets say $5000 is due May 1st and $5000 is due Sept 1st

I have been using YNAB for a few years and just opened a new YNAB account. The default budget looks nothing like this! It has three category's. Bills, Needs and Wants .I can not find this default budget! Any idea what that is about?

If you just signed up for a brand new YNAB, you’re like inside their onboarding tutorial and will be locked in until you complete it. Just follow their prompts to add an account, add a target, and assign some money. Then you’ll unlock everything and be able to fully manipulate and delete categories and make your own like I do here. Hope that helps!

Yaaaaaay! Does anyone know-if I get confused about credit cards can I just create a section called budget for cc and not worry about actually working w ynab cc category?

I would really try not to do this! It will cause you some major issues when it comes to reporting and reconciling down the road. That is, if you're actively charging to a card. If you're not using credit cards, but just paying them down, you can just have a category for the CC and treat it like a bill. But if you want to add your CC account into YNAB, I would really work with the system, here's a dedicated video on this topic: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHrbYX2fl8hjgtksi=FMFVHYzlPOT7KBkx
