A good excel sheet is a thing of beauty. I made one for my family’s finances which takes everything into account. Automatically calculates net from gross salary, child benefits based on number of kids, the percentage we both have to transfer to our joint account every month, etc. It gives us so much clarity about our finances.

I have a not so pretty sheet on Google Sheets I use for finances and while I agree, spreadsheets are generally not amazing. When they are, they certainly are.

I submit that a properly laid out and simple excel spreadsheet is as beautiful as it is rare.
It’s dealing with other people’s spreadsheets because they don’t even know you can have multiple sheets to keep things organized, and they just throw everything onto the same sheet that is the living hell. That… and management that thinks imposing this kind of whimsy is a good idea…
