Money Setup Day

An educational setup session that walks you through building a simple, repeatable money system. You learn why saving is hard and how present bias works, then structure your spending, start tracking, and automate one savings transfer so the system runs without willpower. This is general financial education, not personalized financial advice.

Grade inherited from the evidence blocks this routine implements. Duration is a starting point (do more or less); the app just tells you where you land against the evidence-based dose.
