ChatGPT doesn\u2019t stop there; it goes above and beyond in creating a \u201csummary\u201d section in the spreadsheet that tots up how much we\u2019re spending in each category, with a neat visualisation that allows us to see clearly the biggest family costs. Work with your data Now you have all the spending captured in a spreadsheet, you can ask the AI to take a look at those \ufb01gures and recommend areas where you might be able to make some savings.<\/p>\n<p>We press the \u201c+\u201d button in the chat window and upload the \ufb01lled-in spreadsheet containing our budget data. Then we type: This is a spreadsheet showing our family expenditure. Suggest 10 ways to reduce this household budget without a\ufb00ecting quality of life. The AI has a series of recommendations, which include looking at our various broadband and mobile bills, and seeing if we can \ufb01nd ways to bundle them together for a cheaper package; cutting back on those \u201cinvisible\u201d subscriptions that scrape hundreds of pounds out of the kitty each year; and checking whether we can get a water meter installed, as our bill seems higher than average.<\/p>\n<p>Categorise your real spending If you really want to take the budget tracking to the next level, you can have ChatGPT analyse your monthly expenditure, so you can get an ongoing snapshot of your money \ufb02ows. Most online banks let you export transaction data into a spreadsheet, which you can upload to the AI and let it work its magic \u2013 although think carefully before doing this, because you\u2019ll be sharing sensitive \ufb01nancial information with ChatGPT.<\/p>\n<p>We downloaded a month\u2019s worth of bank transactions, clicked \u201c+\u201d to upload the \ufb01le, and then entered the following prompt: These are my bank transactions from the past month. Can you help me categorise the expenditure? That gave us a headline summary of the main areas of spending, but if you want to make sure the AI is correctly identifying every transaction, you can ask it to: Put each line into a spreadsheet with your categorisation.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Established 2002.
