Hey everyone, here is Halfdollar – a free spreadsheet budgeting tool with many features to help meet your individual budgeting needs. It's shareable, easy to log and organize your transactions, and helps you predict what the each month and the entire year will look like financially. There's something about manually logging and handling your budget when it comes to your finances. You decide exactly how everything is labeled and categorized, and can constantly see what is coming in, going out, and what is leftover. I've worked really hard to get this to a point that I'm ready to share. Please join the Slack community if you would like and give some feedback, ideas, or just chat about budgeting. I hope you find Halfdollar useful for you and are able to get your budget set up and ready for the new year. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me anywhere. Thank you, enjoy!

Congrats! What do you do with the information users log in?
Derek Torsani
@inbal_a Thanks! Actually, since users create a copy of the template, that spreadsheet is completely owned by the user. It's your own private document that no one else ever sees unless you share it with them. You also don't have to enter in any information to get the free template, so nothing is ever collected or stored.

@dmtors Fantastic!

Hey @dmtors - this is cool. Couple questions - do you have a video demo? Also, is there a roadmap for this to make money? I don't want to rely on it and have it go away :(
Derek Torsani
@joelrunyon Hey thanks so much! Here is a video demo.
There is no roadmap to make money. It doesn't cost much to run, other than time. And this is something I use and is very important to me. I've been working on for 5 years so far so no need to worry about it going away. :)
Joel Runyon
@dmtors maybe make a tip jar for those who want to? I don't like seeing free projects that are really well done, because unexpected stuff can happen and it can get harder to support. Good work!
Derek Torsani
@joelrunyon Thanks for the compliment. I did write in the FAQ on the website that if you feel inclined to give that you can Venmo me @derektorsani.

@jonaaust Thank you! Join the Slack community if you want and let me know if you have any questions or thoughts as you build out your budget.

@dmtors Nice. Making a budget has been a "todo" of mine for quite some time now, this might just be what I needed to get started. Is there an easy way to covert the doc from $ to a different currency?
Derek Torsani
@jonaaust That's great. It's a good end of year/new year item to do. What currency are you looking for? You can format the currency to be whatever you need in Google Sheets under format, more, custom currencies. But if you would like, I can set up a custom budget for you in the currency you need.
Jonatan Austigard
@dmtors That would be fantastic! Holy smokes. I'd love to be able to use NOK.
Derek Torsani
@jonaaust Thanks for making the suggestion. Here is a version of the template in NOK. Let me know if this works or if I missed anything. https://docs.google.com/spreadsh...

Hey @dmtors - Would you be able to provide a version in INR please? I tried to go to settings and change the locale, but it simply converted a bunch of fields into Hindi rather than changing the currency! Really looking forward to using this!
Derek Torsani
@robinsinghvi Hey, here is a INR version of the template. https://docs.google.com/spreadsh...
