Especially in regards to knowing how much we truly need, what is actually disposable, and what we can afford to spend/save.
Why don't you use Mint.com or Quicken? It would be a lot easier than imputing everything by hand.

I'm surprised at how many people check daily. I check out our investments more often, especially lately, to see how well I am at stock picking (since they're up!).
This thread has me inclined to check more thoroughly for fraudulent charges though.
Me too. I will check more often!
