Story time: a few years ago, my wife Luce was quietly leaking over $50 a month… and had no idea. 😬
After getting COVID (for the third time 🙃), she downloaded a game during quarantine — one of those Candy Crush–style games where you definitely don’t mean to spend real money… until you do. Tiny charges here, $3.99 there, $9.99 there — all automated, all unnoticed, all adding up.
Fast forward to a quarterly money check-in and boom 💥 — a subscription to a game she wasn’t even playing anymore.
The wild part? It wasn’t about willpower or being “bad with money.” It was about systems. Once she stopped relying on memory and started using a tool that showed everything clearly in one place, the money leaks stopped immediately.
In this video, I talk about:
How small recurring charges sneak up on you
Why relying on “I’ll remember to check” doesn’t work
How ADHD + automation can quietly drain your money
The system we now use to track spending, goals, net worth, and subscriptions in real time
I’m a huge fan of Suma, an all-in-one money platform that helps you see exactly where your money is going, flags odd or recurring transactions, and even includes a financial AI agent (Charlie 👀).
