YNAB Rule 4: Age your money
What if you could put all your bills on autopay, treat your credit card like cash, and step back from the stress of worrying about when your transactions happen?
That's the peace of mind available when you get to YNAB Rule 4: Age your money.
When the money you're spending today was earned long ago, you can suddenly let go of a whole category of money stress that you might not even realize you have.
Tyler and Steve demystify the "credit card float" and illustrate with cafeteria-style cereal dispensers.
If after all this you'd like one-on-one guidance through your money journey, Tyler is the coach for you.
