It's hard to be able to do anything and to actually achieve your goals, right? When it comes to my schedule, I know that there are times when I'm just like, oh, I'm When I do that, almost every single time if I have to go somewhere, I am late. I'll try to plan, I'll try to be organized, and things just don't go as I imagine them in my head, right? And I'm sure you're right there with me because... Scheduling with kids is not easy, but when it comes to your money, it is the same way. If you just have your money sitting in your account and all you do to see if you're on track or to see if you quote-unquote, have any money is by looking into your bank account and seeing that you have the money, air quote, to buy whatever it is that you want to buy, then when something comes up and you actually have to use that money...

that's when things go down the drain rather rapidly, right? Because you ended up using that money that was supposed to be focused or put towards something else, whether it was a future thing that you were saving up for that needed to be saved up for right then and there, or whether it's something that you needed for your monthly expenses, like your bills or or groceries, and now you're trying to pinch pennies to make it work. When you're not organized and you just have everything in one account, it's so hard to be able to stick to your budget.

What problems happen when you keep all your money in one account?

Because when you do it that way, the only way you can stick to your budget is by sitting down and doing a traditional style of tracking which is adding up every single little expense and then taking out the amounts, like adding up the amounts that go towards a specific category.
