I knew i needed accountability for my personal discipline. Life has been super busy. Finishing my MBA 4/26, my middle graduates high school and doing final college visits. Got 2 weeks behind & was giving myself a panic attach. Stayed focus knowing I need to do this. Sold something that covered all but $100 of a credit card debt. Took a $100 from my pay and paid it off in full. Started the last week of December. Extra expenses have been discouraging due to the snow and college visits and take-out due to exhaustion but I have paid off 3 of the smaller credit card balances now. Removed the items from my vision board. Eyeing the next 3 credit cards to hopefully pay off by June if not sooner on my debt schedule & vision board (compliment each other). My focus is debt payoff but have a very small amount flowing to high interest savings for emergency fund & a small amount into a brokerage account. Something is better than nothing. Hoping to sell more stuff to help pay some more cards off faster. A little excited today looking at everything. Kept up with fitness 3 mornings before work going on 5 weeks!!! I have lost inches from the emotional eating stopping and the focus on health & consistency. It all seems to be a total package.

Budgetdog Academy is worth the investment! Not only are you investing in yourself now but you're investing for the long haul. I thought I knew how to go about my retirement, investments, and financial goals...but there's soo much I'm learning as the weeks go by that I don't think I ever would've learned. You learn a system, that will not only help you reach your financial goals, but change your mindset! Not to mention you get an awesome team that is there to help you every step of the way, keeping you accountable! From someone who was very skeptical and unsure about the commitment, It's worth it!

My husband and I joined a finance mentorship 3 months ago called Budgetdog. 💴 It’s a 6 month course, and gets pretty in depth. We’re half way through, have fine tuned our budget, continued to pay off debt from the fire, been learning about investing, retirement plans, dollar cost averaging, the stock market, all that good stuff. For the first time in, I think forever?? We have a buffer in place, are working to set up automatic payments where we can, and just executed our very first automatic investments to our retirement accounts. Now they’re set up to recur monthly and I don’t even have to think about it. It’s been a lot of time we’ve invested in the class, live call, learning, and growing, but I feel like like for the first time we’re taking back control of our money, and not letting our money (or emotions) run us. If you’re feeling stuck, frustrated, clueless, or hopeless of what your future & retirement look like, I’d suggest you schedule a free call and talk to them. It’s not cheap, it’s an investmwnt, which for us felt a bit like a step backwards as we’ve zeroed in on paying off debt. Reflecting this morning, talking to him, I’m really glad we decided to invest in ourselves and future. And that we are learning and are our best advocates, not only are we avoiding unnecessary fees from a financial advisor, but we’re in control and understand what we’re doing. They hold you accountable, there’s an online community, calls each week, tons of resources and online information. While I still feel like there’s so much to learn, I have at least a small understanding now, and it was really stressing me out that we’re both self employed without a real structure for retirement. One of the big take aways is just not letting the unknown hold you back; because time is the biggest aspect here. Don’t try to time the market, set things up to happen automatically so you don’t make emotional decisions, and don’t panic sell lol. I had been listening to Dave Ramsey for month’s, and I do really like him, but I’ve made so much more progress learning and putting a true system in place that also allows us to still live a life & not only be beans and rice, iykyk. I don’t recommend people, mentorships, or programs easily. I haven’t even said a word until now publicly that we’ve been doing this so I could see some of the results myself. Today our first automatic investments from our submitted & approved plan executed. That feels pretty dang good! I’m really grateful for the progress we’ve seen in just 3 months, I know our future is going to be brighter because of it. Don’t let your finances control you, grab the reins, say yes to a change, be disciplined, open, and make a change! We’ve got this! 🎉

BudgetDog has been an absolute blessing to every part of our lives. We have been able to take control of our finances & live life so much more comfortably - all thanks to Budgetdog

There is such a wealth of knowledge here. My wife and I were so overwhelmed with debt and complex financial literacy that even when the money came in we made so many mistakes on how to handle it. The systems Budgetdog have created really work and we are on track to be debt free in a couple years and I already have an investment strategy in place for when we are financially ready. They really help you make decisions and teach you about finances without being pushy and telling you what you have to do. The community is excited for all the wins and not just the really big ones. The accountability really keeps pushing you forward. Note that if you aren't willing to work on yourself and your finances this isn't for you. If your tired of feeling stuck and like you can't make progress, I can vouge that this will help. Its been lifechanging for me and my family!

I appreciate the pacing of the program. It doesn't overwhelm you at all.

All the coaches are great and the tools/information given in the program will definitely set you up to succeed. The systems placed on autopilot ,ake everything so easy. You have to be able to put in the work but this program definitely works. I would recommend to anyone trying to reach their financial goals.

Before working with Budget Dog, budgeting felt overwhelming and honestly a little defeating. They completely changed that. Everything is explained in a clear, practical, and judgment-free way that actually makes sense in real life—not just on paper. They helped us understand where our money was really going, build a realistic plan that fits our lifestyle, and set goals that feel achievable instead of stressful. We finally feel confident making financial decisions and staying consistent, rather than constantly feeling behind or unsure. What really sets Budget Dog apart is how supportive and encouraging they are. It’s not just about numbers—it’s about building habits, changing your mindset around money, and creating long-term stability. We truly feel more at peace and in control of our finances now. If you’re looking for financial guidance that’s practical, empowering, and actually sustainable, we can’t recommend Budget Dog Academy enough.
