It is amazing what you notice when you sit down and really look at account statements each month. I just went back through my cc bills for the last year looking for random business expenses that got put on my personal card and found about a half dozen that needed to be accounted for when I file taxes this year, but also a few that I wasn't sure WHAT they were for. Time to check those more closely each month.
This captures something I see constantly, how these small leaks don't feel urgent until you add them all up. The autopay trust issue especially resonates. We've been conditioned to see "set it and forget it" as convenience, but it's often just permission to stop paying attention.
What strikes me is that people almost never miss what they cut, because half the time, they'd forgotten it existed. The real shift happens when you realize questioning charges isn't being "cheap." It's being intentional. And that's a completely different energy around money.
