BudgetDog Academy has been a game changer and an eye opening experience for me so far and I’ve only just started! I was always afraid of my finances and now I feel like I’m in the right place to get the proper education and support to help guide me to financial freedom! The coaches have been amazing and super responsive in answering all my questions whenever they come up. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me!

Everyone should join the BUDGETDOG ACADEMY program!
Budget Academy has been instrumental in providing us with the financial knowledge we previously lacked. Although we were saving money, we had no long-term vision for our finances, including retirement planning, and we tended to overspend. I joined BudgetDog Academy in August 2023, and unfortunately, I lost my job in October 2023. It could have been a disastrous situation for my family if I hadn't prepared my finances by attending BudgetDog Academy and learning the financial structure through courses and weekly meetings. I was unemployed for seven months, but thanks to the support from BudgetDog Academy, we had emergency funds to rely on during that time. We didn't have to ask anyone for financial help, and we avoided foreclosure on our house or canceling my son's classes. We were able to navigate this tough period in peace.
Through the guidance of the BudgetDog Community, I gained financial knowledge and learned from the various guest speakers they invite to our weekly meetings, covering topics like real estate investment, syndication deals, insurance, and other investment opportunities. Since joining BudgetDog Academy, our income and savings have tripled.
Before joining, financial terms were foreign to me, but now I am actively involved in independent deals and can negotiate effectively. What once felt like a dream is now a reality for us!
Most importantly, we are preparing the next generation with the knowledge they need to build financial wealth. BudgetDog Academy helps us build generational wealth, and our children are becoming financially savvy. Instead of discussing where to go for movies or dining, they talk about building wealth, contributing to the community while earning money, and investing in the S&P 500 instead of spending on material possessions.
We've far exceeded the value of the BudgetDog fees and received much more than we anticipated—over 100 times our investment in their courses. This isn't just another financial coaching course; it's a collaborative program designed for families who are often juggling multiple responsibilities and striving to thrive.
BudgetDog Academy Coaches are with us every step of the way and ready to answer any question we have, no matter how small or how many we ask.
No matter what I say about this program, it will never fully capture its impact because BudgetDog Academy is truly amazing!
Every family should JOIN this program!

Thank you for sharing such a powerful and inspiring story. It is incredible to hear how BudgetDog Academy helped you not only prepare for a major life challenge but also come through it with strength, stability, and confidence. The fact that you were able to navigate seven months of unemployment without financial collapse speaks volumes about your hard work and commitment, and we are honored to have been part of that journey.
Hearing how your income and savings have tripled, how you are confidently negotiating deals, and how your children are now focused on building wealth is exactly the kind of impact we strive for. We designed this program to go far beyond just financial coaching — it is about transforming families, creating generational change, and building a supportive community that lifts each other up.
We are so grateful to have you in the BudgetDog family and cannot wait to see all the incredible things you and your family achieve next. Thank you for trusting us and for encouraging other families to take this important step.

I was skeptical at first…Best decision I’ve ever made!
I was skeptical at first since there are so many courses and classes promising this and that. BudgetDog there is no fluff. They give you the tools and the knowledge to start your journey to financial freedom starting in WEEK ONE! From mindset change to taking a deep look at finances, budget, and investing, BudgetDog allows you to set and forget it with a heavy emphasis on automation. The greatest part of the course is the amazing coaching staff AND the community! I have had at community members answer questions and point me in the right direction for investing, real estate, brokerage accounts, etc. I am so happy I joined the BD fam! Thanks Brennan!

We understand the skepticism when there are so many programs out there making big promises, so it means a lot that you took the leap with us and found real value from the start. We are thrilled that the tools, mindset shifts, and focus on automation have helped set you on a clear path. It is also wonderful to hear how much the coaching team and the community have supported you along the way. We are grateful to have you in the BD family and excited to see where you go from here.

A Total Life Game-Changer
It's really hard to write a condensed version of what is done right... there is so much. The first thing I'd want someone who is thinking of joining the BudgetDog Academy to know is that they are getting far more than they can imagine with their course fee. The community itself is quite remarkable - - like-minded people with the same goals, but at varying stages of life and with varying experiences, who all truly draw inspiration from each other's wins and support the struggles. Second, the wealth of knowledge and resources you gain is beyond anything that you can imagine. The coaches are accessible, offer so much insight, they are patient with however many questions you ask, and encourage more and more so that you leave no stone unturned as you learn and grow through the program. I haven't ever been "excited" about our finances, but over the last couple of years, had started learning from various sources on socials, etc., never knowing if I was implementing in a smart way or not because I didn't truly understand everything there is to understand. This has been incredibly eye-opening and is pulling everything together and teaching from the base of things to the end. It's work... hard work... especially in the beginning, especially if you do due-diligence for yourself. But for the first time, I am excited when thinking about our financial future; I am excited realizing our financial independence is not actually as far out of reach as I thought. We are intentional with our spending and our goals, but still very much living our life and rolling with the punches knowing we have a plan in place. Having control of our own money, having intentionality with how we spend and where we invest, and building a solid roadmap to reach our goals are all major gifts we have given ourselves by making the decision to join BudgetDog Academy. We will forever be grateful and will always be active in this incredible community.

It's hard to put into words how much it means to hear the depth of transformation you’ve experienced, whether financially, mentally, or emotionally. You're absolutely right. This journey takes real work, especially in the beginning, but your story shows what’s possible when you commit with intention.
We’re honored that Budgetdog Academy could be the place where it all came together for you.

Transformed our finances and mindset — life changing!
Working with BudgetDog has been one of the best decisions my husband and I have made for our family’s future. We were overwhelmed with debt, unclear on how to move forward, and constantly worried about cash flow. Their framework helped us pay off over $57K in credit card debt, strategically recast our mortgages, and finally feel in control of our financial path.
The course materials are clear, actionable, and empowering — no fluff. What really sets them apart is the ongoing support and community. Brennan and the team genuinely care and show up for their members. We’ve not only improved our finances, we’ve redefined our entire money mindset.
Highly recommend if you’re serious about building wealth and getting intentional with your money.

The academy helped me level up…
The academy helped me level up significantly. This is the stuff we should have been taught in high schools all around the country. Digesting this information is certainly better sooner rather than later but better late than never.
Response from Budgetdog, LLCMay 22, 2025
Thank you for the kind words and honest reflection. We couldn’t agree more...this is the kind of practical, life-changing education that should be taught in every high school. We’re so glad the Academy gave you the tools to level up and take control, no matter when you started. It’s never too late to build a stronger financial future, and you’re proof of that.
