Reveal Your Money’s Secrets: Tracking Spending

Once you understand and define your satisfying goals, it’s time to uncover your wallet’s secrets. Your current dissatisfaction with spending is hidden in your checkbook. By tracking spending and asking a few well well-placed questions, we can reveal your secret money life.
