Yes, that's right.
A secret. ssssh don't tell anyone...
I mean I guess it's nothing crazy, but it does feel a little taboo since I'm a personal finance influencer.
Some might even call me a thought leader (which truth be told I think "thought leader" is a weird thing to call yourself).
Anyway, here it is:
Detailed money management doesn't come naturally to me at all. I like to cheat whenever possible.*gasp*
I know, I know. But... it's true. Let me explain:
I am *not* type A. I'm about as backside type B as they come.
Spreadsheets make my soul hurt.
And even though I know that a lot of M$M readers love to nerd out about every little detail of their budget and finances, track things manually, and essentially micro-manage every dollar...
... I've just never really been excited about that.
I guess you could say that I'm more of a big picture type of person.
I love seeing my net worth go up. I love making more money.
Most of all, I love being able to spend money without the anxiety of wondering if I'm spending too much.
Fancy wine doesn't just buy itself, you know.That's why I'm a huge fan of using apps, online tools, etc. to manage my money.
If you show me an app that has all of the important money info in one place and I can look at it quickly - I am so down.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I just want the process of managing my money to be easy.
So if you're at all like me, I really think you're going to want to check out the new Nerdwallet app.
I emailed about it a while ago, but if you didn't have a chance to check it out yet, I highly recommend doing it today while you're on the clock at your day job.
Because if there is anything I know - it's that a ton of you indulge in M$M emails while you're at work.
I see those work email addresses. Sneaky sneaky.
For some reason it brings me joy to know that your boss is paying you to look at my emails. It's a beautiful thing.
Anyway, go here to read a full review of the Nerdwallet app if you want to make it easier to manage your money:
