The Where Did My Money Go Story
We certainly can’t tell you where your money’s gone (yet), but we can share our journey
In today’s largely cashless society, it’s certainly easy to lose track of your spending, sigh over dwindling savings and wonder where all your money’s gone, when you get happy-go-lucky with swiping the old, faithful credit card or chucking things on Afterpay. But that also means that money’s going in and out, without the physicality of cash in your wallet keeping you accountable. What a pickle, hey?
With that being said, we’re not here to judge. That’s how the idea for Where Did My Money Go was sparked.
We’re here to show and teach you exactly how you can take control of your money and be intentional with your spending. Once you can organise and categorise your expenses, stick to budgets and saving goals, you’ll be able to confidently plan and prepare for your future – without stressing about where the money’s all gone!
Whether you’re saving to buy a new car, pay the rent or managing your lifestyle expenses, we’ll empower you with the financial literacy you need to successfully achieve your goals with clarity and purpose. Note that this doesn’t mean that you have to go scrimping and opting for BYO Weet-Bix over smashed avo brunches with your friends or passing on weekend getaways…It’s about finding balance and being able to enjoy life while being assured of your financial security.
Plus, it only takes as little as 5 minutes a week to keep on top of your finances. Done and dusted before your coffee fix gets cold!
From “I have no idea how much I spend on my flat white everyday” to “just show me how to efficiently track my money”, we’ll customise our financial coaching to your needs and goals.
Plus, we’ll show you the beauty of using a personal expense and budget tracking app that’ll make your life a whole lot easier! Always compassionate and understanding, we’re here to support your big dreams and growth goals.
So, tell us, where did your money go?
No idea? Fancy that, you’re in the right place – we’d love to chat!
Show me the money, Jodi!
Hello there, you soon-to-be (wise) penny pincher!
I’m Jodi and the face behind Where Did My Money Go. With over 20 years’ experience in the finance & tax industry, one might say that I’m wildly passionate about teaching young people how to take control of their money and financially prepare for the future.
But being conscious about money began at an early age, with my parents being the main inspiration. From an era where single incomes were normal, mum successfully raised a busy household of five by scrupulously making the budget stretch. Though money was tight as times, they purchased a block of land and we still had the pleasure of going on regular family holidays.
That upbringing was crucial to forming my lifelong appreciation and understanding of how important it is to be accountable for your money and learning how to save – while being able to enjoy life freely, without worrying about the lack of funds!
Speaking of enjoying the rollercoaster that we all call life, when I’m not harping on about money and budgeting tips, you’ll likely find me travelling or enjoying time out on my boat.
Always was and always will be an adventurous spirit, I get a thrill from being out in nature and spending time with my family. These days, my husband and I spend a lot of time exploring and camping in the beautiful Australian outdoors.
Anyhow, enough of me waffling on! I’m truly glad that you’re here and so excited to share my money-saving knowledge with you. I promise to keep it fun and simple, without the fuss and jargon.
You’ll walk away with financial literacy that will set you up to chase your dreams and live life with brilliant confidence.
