What is inside

3 sheets, one file.

  • 1

    Setup

    Each debt, its balance, rate and minimum. Pick snowball or avalanche.

  • 2

    Monthly input

    What you paid, and any extra. Five minutes.

  • 3

    Dashboard

    Payoff date, interest saved, and a bar per debt shrinking month by month.

Who it is for

This fits if

  • You have more than one debt and no clear order for paying them down.
  • You want to see a finish date, because a finish date is what keeps you going.
  • You want to compare snowball and avalanche without a spreadsheet degree.

How to use it

Five steps.

  1. 1

    List every debt in Setup, even the small embarrassing ones. Especially those.

  2. 2

    Choose an order. Snowball if you need momentum, avalanche if you want to save the most interest. The sheet shows both.

  3. 3

    Enter the extra amount you can put toward debt each month, even if it is small.

  4. 4

    Each month, record what you paid. Watch the payoff date move.

  5. 5

    When one debt clears, the sheet rolls its payment into the next. You do nothing.

Questions

Snowball or avalanche?

The sheet calculates both. Most of us pick snowball for the first two debts and switch to avalanche once the momentum is real.

Excel or Google Sheets?

Both are in the download.

Refunds?

Uncover is a twenty-minute session that ends by naming the template that fits what you found. Most of these were built after one of us did it.
