An attempt to control my living expenses

“Mea­sure­ment is the first step that leads to con­trol and even­tu­al­ly to improve­ment. If you can’t mea­sure some­thing, you can’t under­stand it. If you can’t under­stand it, you can’t con­trol it. If you can’t con­trol it, you can’t improve it.”
- H. James Har­ring­ton

I start­ed apply­ing this prin­ci­ple in my day ‑to-day spendings.And I suc­cess­ful­ly mea­sured my spend­ings for May 2007.
