• Is $250 a month in disposable income livable for a family of 3?

  You'll be going into a tight budget time, so get a really good system in place. If you don't have that you love already, I recommend YNAB (youneedabudget.com). It's envelope based and is really good for planning ahead for irregular expenses and for "rolling with the punches" if something comes up. It works differently than traditional monthly budget, so take time to use all the resources to learn the system. ... Source: about 1 year ago

• LPT Request: What is your favorite life hack that has saved you money, time, or made your day-to-day activities easier?

  I also said in a comment below, I use YNAB to track my financial life. This strategy only works if you have enough confidence in your finances to know that if I gave you a card with 100k credit limit, you would never spend more on it than what you have in your bank and has been budgeted for. If not, I cannot overstate how important it is to get your budget in order beforehand. There’s zero money saved if you pay... Source: about 1 year ago

• Fund future vacations

  If you aren’t already giving every dollar you make a job, earning more money will only get you so far. Check out YNAB, read all the free content about learning to plan and budget. Source: about 1 year ago

• Tracking savings goals

  Track it by hand or in software. I started out with just a spreadsheet, but since then moved my whole budget to YNAB (youneedabudget.com), where you track all your individual savings goals as well as how your money will be used to cover regular (and irregular) expenses. Now the whole plan is in one place, and covers everything from how much is set aside for gardening supplies for this summer to the big... Source: about 1 year ago

• My grandfather passed away and left me 25k. I have next to no savings and I owe money on a couple credit cards and a car. Almost 40, how do I maximize this?

  Aside from all the other advice, get a subscription to YNAB (youneedabudget.com) and start using it religiously. It will help prevent any backsliding and will put you in a much better financial situation going forward. Source: about 1 year ago

• I just can't play chords by ear

  Have you ever tried https://yousician.com/ It teaches you the basics, scales, chords and everything in between plus you can learn popular tracks at your pace and the program adapts to your skill level. They have a free trial. I use it to learn piano and ukulele. Just sign up, download their app on your laptop, phone or tablet (the bigger the display the better) and place that device near the instrument you are... Source: 12 months ago

  Https://yousician.com is the big I know of. It's not bad, expensive though. Source: over 1 year ago

• Learning an instrument to help with musicality ?

  YES! Learning any kind of instrument will help. I started learning the guitar last Feb. With this app https://yousician.com/ It's great because it will help you see if your timing is correct. They don't offer drums but they do have singing or even learning ukulele would help and isn't as expensive as buy a guitar. Source: over 1 year ago

• Any hobbies or interests that help improve our brain?

  Have you tried yousician? ( Not for all instruments). Source: over 1 year ago

• Any practice software/apps that work like Rock Band?

  Apologies in advance if this question is dumb or makes no sense. I saw an ad this morning for Yousician, and realized how much I missed having Rock Band as a direct “play along” type practice system. Does anything like this exist? Ideally something I can plug an e-kit into for feedback - you know, like how Rock Band worked. Source: over 1 year ago
