[OC] I tracked my spending for a whole year (2022). Every receipt was tracked in a monthly spreadsheet and I compiled this chart from there. My income shown is post-tax and after investment/saving account contributions. I get paid hourly and for overtime work.Submitted by ironicsharkhada t3_10bui99 in dataisbeautiful

My housing costs fluctuate because my roommates are bad at keeping track of utilities and I wasn’t charged every month. I also included purchases for things that were for the house. What’s confusing about retail?

That makes more sense. Why is retail so damn high?! I'm guessing the 4K is August was related to the move in July, maybe furniture or something, but I can't think of any other major expense in retail other than clothing and maybe electronics, but those are large non-recurring expenses. I find it hard to believe that you'd be buying nearly a thousand dollars worth of clothes every month, so it's probably a subcategory I'm not thinking of, but I have no idea what it is.

Retail includes all purchases from stores. I bought a lot of gear this year because I finally have the time and money to do so. In august I bought a nice bike. I do not expect retail to be that high this year. I was making up for living very frugally previously.
