Gunner O'Laughlin recommends Monarch Money, a tool for tracking spending, accounts, and credit cards, especially for those who are not adept at managing spreadsheets. He notes that while Monarch is an occasional sponsor of the show, his endorsement predates the sponsorship.

“I pay $99 a year for a family plan to Monarch Money. It tracks all my spending and all my accounts and all my credit cards for me. Disclaimer, Monarch is an occasional sponsor of the show. I've been using Monarch long before they came to us to sponsor us.”
Gunner O'Laughlin
“I used Mint, uh, before into it shut it down. Uh, it's high time for me to migrate over and test out Monarch.”
