I was just going to say "I'm just getting off my ass and tightening up my financial habits".
For those of you like me, who like spreadsheets but don't know exactly where to start, I can recommend Tiller Money: https://tillerhq.com. Sometimes the best place to start is just "knowing where you stand". But there's lots of great tools for personal finance. Pick one and hop to it.
But there's no secret magic there, and I'm not even sure I'm doing anything different now that I shouldn't have already been doing 2 years ago. I may not have spent so much money... but that's a me problem not the "result of a recession" problem.
Much thanks for the Tiller recommendation.
I was initially using Mint for a bit, but got turned off due to their sketchy login authentication and business model (selling data).
So the average mass of the American male has increased 15% in 50 years! No data on whether he is taller, but I'd bet the BMI has gone up.
