I'm using the good ol' Excel spreadsheet to track expenses, income, NW, etc. Are there any other tools or apps that you guys found useful?

Also shoutout to my fellow spreadsheet power users 😎

The hacked MichelleG account actually commented that it did not have MFA enabled lol. This was on the lemmy.world shitpost community, on one of the posts making memes about the situation. Hilarious that the hacker decided to share that.

Hi all, I wanted to create this community for those interested in the FIRE movement to share their experiences.

A few years ago, I started tracking my net worth and increasing my savings to hopefully even have a chance to retire, and now want to push further to achieving financial independence and MAYBE HOPEFULLY retire a few years earlier as well.

Anyone else in a similar situation? How has the journey been for you so far?
