I am creating my own worksheets until I can purchase the BBP workbook. Then I had a strange thought, if I am attempting to save money into a sinking fund does that count as savings? It just my regular savings cou t as savi gs I have 5% of my check so about 40 every other week go automatically to savings but wasnt sure if envelopes counted since I wouldn't be using some of them every month?

Sinking fund money (car repairs, Christmas, home maintenance etc. ) I count as savings. Variable expenses money (food, household, gas, etc. ) I do not count as savings.
