Reply to comment by guymn999 in [OC] Where my money went in 2022 - As Percentage of Income by mandox1

I cook and prepare the vast majority of meals at home.

The few times I did dine out were either: paid for by friends/family, paid for by my work, or I paid cash and did not track it. I had only a few hundred dollars in untracked cash purchases throughout the year, and not all were for dining out. Credit/debit cards show no food or restaurant transactions outside of my primary grocer, butcher, and a handful of trips to Walmart.

The visual and all numbers are in % of my base income; base income is just the sum %, so 100%. Actual cash values may differ as my income is not $100,000.

So you likely spent less than that in groceries? It just doesn't seem to add up.

Well, that is what it all added up to!

Comparing it to the prior 2 years, this number is between the two, despite inflation. It's very consistent, actually.
