In Vietnam, effective financial management is something every individual aspires to achieve. To record expenses/incomes and evaluate the efficiency of one's financial management, the creation of a financial balance sheet is practical and meaningful. By looking at it, you can master expenses and incomes throughout the year and the remaining amount at the end of the year.
Firstly, you must create a personal financial balance sheet for yourself with the following content:
PERSONAL FINANCIAL BALANCE SHEET

LIABILITIES AND NET WORTH |
||
---|---|---|---|
LIQUID ASSETS |
SHORT-TERM LIABILITIES |
||
Cash |
Credit card debt |
||
Demand deposit accounts |

||

Other short-term debts |
||
Incremental assets |
Long-term liabilities |
||
Term deposit accounts |
Mortgage payments |

||
Pension funds |

TOTAL LIABILITIES |

|||
DEPRECIABLE ASSETS |
NET WORTH: Total Assets – Total Liabilities |
||
Car value |
|||
Club membership fees |
|||
TOTAL ASSETS |
Total liabilities and net worth |

By looking at the financial balance sheet, you can assess your current wealth or poverty by comparing your existing assets to total liabilities or even more accurately know whether your assets are increasing or depreciating.
Secondly, you must list your income and expenses to master the remaining amount at the end of the year.
