A household account book that records daily life as it is is “brilliant”. (Reporter, Network Press, Momoko Ariyoshi, Yoko Idegami, Masahiro Fukushima)
Households released every week
At the beginning, the household account book is published on Instagram by Asu (a pseudonym) who lives in Saga Prefecture.
This household account book was only a frame a month ago.
When it is a week later, the name and price of the purchased food etc. will be written by date on the lower right.
In the upper right, expenditures are grouped by expense item.
This week was 9349 yen for food only.
In addition, the calendar on the upper left shows the expenses for each day, and on days when less than 1 yen has been spent, a sticker to celebrate NMD = No Money Day is affixed.
Asu-san publishes the household account book every week, and when the month is over, all of it is published.
By the way, click here for the household account book for September.
“The result is not good. Yes, it ’s a deficit. Because I was danced to an ad that says,“ Rush before tax increase! ”, The number of times I went to cafes to heal my fatigue was added.” The
Release is motivated
Asu-san lives with her husband and a 2-year-old child with three people.
The reason I started adding a household account book was to extend my childcare leave.
“I only want my husband's income to support my household, and I want to cherish my husband's money. I also wanted to save money for my children.”
It will be released on Instagram from February.
The reason is that you can continue to be motivated by opening to the public, and there is a sense of tension to manage your household properly.
I saw shopping baskets and wasteful use
Even so, why not handwriting without using a spreadsheet software on a PC?
“By writing out by hand, I can organize my head and look back. I try to write in polite characters so that the viewers feel comfortable.” (Mr. ASSU)
Did you get confused about announcing “the contents of your wallet” on SNS?
“At first, I felt embarrassed. I try not to see my personal information.”
Has anything changed since I started publishing my household account book?
“I used to buy things I like at the time and I wasn't conscious of savings, but now I have a household account book, so I can see my shopping bags and wasteful parts, saving me. The number of Instagram followers has also increased, and sometimes we have harsh opinions, but I am encouraged by many comments such as “It was helpful.”
What is a famous Instagrammer?
When you search for Instagram, you will find an account that publishes the household account book one after another.
We have released a household account book about these trends two years ago and asked Akari, who has 150,000 followers.
“About two years ago, the people who released the household account book started to be noticed about summer, and it seems that there was an Instagrammer with more than 10,000 followers last winter.”
I noticed that the household account book was “brilliant”
I asked why the household account book is so popular, and after answering, “I want to ask why,” he answered.
“Insta so-called“ shine ”is attracting attention, but because it costs money, your real life may be different. The household account book is plain, but your passbook is“ shiny ” I think many people have noticed that more and more people think it is better to enrich the real world. ”(Akari-san)
Setsuko's life savings
Some people publish their household accounts so that they can live happily without money.
This is Setsuko (a pseudonym) whose motto is “A family of three, living in HAPPY even with a 200,000 yen take.”
“I didn't grow up in a wealthy family, but I received a lot of love from my parents. I went to the park with a lunch box, went to the zoo, and decorated the Christmas with the whole family. I just had fun and happy memories without spending money. ''
If you look at Setsuko's account, you will find a picture of the bag separation that many of the people who have published their household accounts.
Bag separation means subdividing living expenses, medical expenses, and companion expenses at the beginning of the month.
In addition, money for Christmas, New Year, family birthdays, etc. is budgeted as a “special fee” from bonuses.
The reason for securing these expenses separately is to protect the happiness of the family.
“I have a family budget, but I want to secure money to enjoy it, and I need to have good health. I also go to infertility treatment, my husband is allergic, and it costs a lot of medical expenses. I always take care of the environment where I can go to the hospital with peace of mind. ”(Mr. Setsuko)
Poi activity
In addition, Setsuko is paying attention to “poi life”.
Points are earned by making full use of the cashless payment point redemption system and the “point site” where you can earn points by shopping through the site.
There is also a movement to follow the account of the person who publishes the household account book in order to gather information on this “poi activity”.
“Eye” changes with age
Setuko says that he started to manage households and started to live a life that suits his height.
“I was able to spend money freely and buy expensive cosmetics when I was single, but now I don't think I need them. Now I can live a simple life with a household account book. (Mr. Setsuko)
Life that suits your height is the daily life that you have built to make you feel comfortable.
I felt that opening up the household account book on SNS was one way to scrape waste and find what was really needed.
