Man vs Money – Part Three: How we tore down our finances (and reduced stress)

Why does getting control of money feel like such a weight off your shoulders? In Part 3 of our Money mini-series, Tim takes you through the painstaking breakdown of his finances: line-by-line audits, subscription purges, disaster funds, bulk-buy planning, and the relief of finally having a monthly strategy.We dig into:Why a lack of control fuels money anxietyHow systems and habits ease the stressThe gaping hole in financial education — was that neglect, or design?The debt spiral of credit cards, interest-only payments, payday loansWhy the system feels rigged, and how to fight backHow to actually teach kids (and yourself) money disciplineDisclaimer: We’re sharing personal experience — not financial advice. Lessons learned the hard way, and hopefully a bit of peace of mind for anyone in the same boat.If you’re enjoying the show PLEASE consider leaving us a 5* rating and a few words to review the show - the algorithm loves it and it’ll help more people find the show ❤️❤️Head to our Patreon for exclusive bonus content!
