I was so sure my $12 planner app was dumb, then my car died on I-35
Last Thursday my battery gave out on I-35 near the Waco exit, and I had to pull $380 out of thin air for a tow and a new one. That stung because I had been ignoring my sister's advice for months to track my spending, mostly because I figured budgeting apps were a waste of $12. I finally downloaded one on Friday and realized I had been dropping about $90 a month on takeout I do not even remember ordering. For those who track stuff, do you do it daily or just once a week?
