Finding The Right Program For Your Needs

Financial planning discussion session

How would you describe your current budgeting practice?

I don't really track anything systematically

Money comes in and goes out, but you're not sure where exactly. Maybe some mental math at month-end.

I track expenses but struggle with planning ahead

You write things down or use an app, but allocating money before spending it still feels unclear.

I budget regularly but want to refine my approach

Your system works okay, but you're dealing with complexity now and need better strategies.

What's your main challenge right now?

Running out of money before month-end

The last week gets tight and you're not sure why it keeps happening.

Income varies and throws everything off

Some months are great, others are lean, and planning feels impossible.

Managing business and personal money together

Everything mixes and you can't tell what belongs where anymore.

How much time can you dedicate weekly?

About 2 hours maximum

You have limited availability but can commit to a longer program timeline.

Around 3 hours works well

You can carve out solid study time each week for a moderate duration.

I can do 4 hours or more

You're ready for intensive learning and want to finish faster.
