  • 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.


  • They definitely count as ingesting books but there is a difference between reading a book and listening to an audiobook.

    Reading IS the activity but I feel like with audiobooks people are typically driving or something where the book is in the background. Though maybe some people put on headphones and just sit and listen or something. I don’t know if this makes me a snob lol.

    Also The Expanse was the first book series I ever read. It was so good. And it made me like the show less even though the show is still great.
