    The Year End Spend and Planning

    It’s been a banner year for me and content. I managed to blog and make a video pretty much weekly, I’ve put out more podcast episodes, and I live stream weekly too. Plus, I put out several LinkedIn Learning courses, launched Podcast Liftoff, and published a book. Keeping up with that amount of content has been an interesting challenge, but luckily it’s December. This time of year, I generally think and talk about the same topics: end of the year planning, spending, and reflection.

  • It’s been about 1 month (34 days) since I’ve been using an automated saving service called Digit, and I’ve really been digging it. I’ve saved around $360 without realizing or missing it, and I keep really good track of my finances.

    The way it works is you connect a bank account, it spends a couple of days figuring out your spending habits, and then it makes withdrawals every couple of days based on how it determines you spend, and what you can spare.

    I’m using this round of savings for a trip I’m taking in August. Then it’s all wedding savings.

    Oh..and it’s free.
