  • Just adding in a couple thoughts… there are lots of apps for this or you can keep it simple with your own spreadsheet. I’ve used EveryDollar for like 6 years now, it’s gotten a little bloated but the core functionality is the same.

    Budgeting sucks at first. It feels super restrictive, and it’s a little stressful. This goes away after like a month or two and you will feel the complete opposite. It feels like so much more freedom once you get the hang of it and you will feel very empowered controlling your money.

    I had a buddy try it out, saw how much he was spending on weed, then gave up trying. What you should do is just factor in your spending on weed and work around it if you need to, or change habits if you’re ready. Budgeting doesn’t mean you have to change your spending habits… you likely will, but it’s more about being in control of your money.







  • Having a Pixel phone is always so great for calling these types of numbers. If it’s a popular enough number, it will show on the screen like text messages of all the # options as soon as it connects if it knows it. If it doesn’t it will still display voice to text so you don’t have to try and remember the best option. It will even “hold” for you and when someone picks up on the business’s end it will let them know you’ll pick up in a second and notify you. Sometimes it will even have info on the current average wait time.

    It’s made calling companies so much nicer.
