“Digital cash envelopes, physical cash envelopes. There is no right or wrong way so you don't have to pick one. You can use both. I use both. I have for years. Figuring out a system that works for you is the key to long-term success. So don't feel like you have to do it one way or another. It takes trying, it takes making mistakes, it takes figuring it out along the way. You just have to get started, right?”
