basically it connects to ur bank account and lets you set limits for different parts of your budget. it sends you notifications when you’re about to or have hit your budget for that thing (ie transportation, shopping, food). each month it gives you a recap of what you spent the most money on. it also shows you all your subscriptions. it’s definitely helped me be a more mindful spender!

there are plenty of apps that help you record what you spend your money on
i would recommend this cause it can help you realize where a lot of your money goes and better adjust your spending habits
be sure to set reminders to do so (i would even put it on a sticky note in your room some place as a physical reminder)

This shit rocks. I’ve never been one to allocate certain funds to certain areas of my life, but this tool has been a great way to start — and track — my spending.
Only request is a feature to help me save towards certain purchase goals, so if you have a rec for that @ me :’-)

I was not raised the most financially literate however I’ve gotten very enthusiastic about personal budgeting apps and YNAB is fantastic for this
the goal is to assign a dollar a job until you have 0 budget, it also connects directly to your bank account (most of them) and categorizes your purchases for you.
I had no idea how much I spend on dining out and drinking out and it is… humbling to see the writing on the wall and do this at home. also makes it so easy to budget for retirement or investments or long term savjng

being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about

i had it for a little over a year until i was like wow this is actually terrible! i genuinely think it has negatively impacted society by ruining people’s attention spans, having a horrific algorithm, and most of all by the most mind-numbing or outright harmful trends -
fake words that people now use IRL (“unalive”), trad wife tiktok, shein hauls, body-focused fitness vids that encourage fatphobia and unhealthy habits, shallow political/feminist theory and queer discourse, “alpha male” podcaster tiktok, encouraging overconsumption in general, trends ruining local spots or niche things… the list goes on
