Shoutout to the spreadsheets I started 3 years ago for tracking every dollar

Found my old notebook from when we moved to Phoenix with $400 to our name and compared it to last month's budget where we actually put $200 into savings - anyone else ever look back at old numbers and get surprised by how far things have come?

Used to think tracking every penny was pointless, clearly I was wrong.

Right? Turns out ignorance wasn't bliss, it was just expensive.

Yeah, same here. It's humbling how wrong you can be.

Yo @jennybailey you're not wrong lol. I used to think tracking was overkill too, but looking back at those old numbers really hits different. It's wild how much ground you can cover when you actually pay attention.
