About this episode

Logan and Quint discuss the importance of automating finances and the potential pitfalls of doing so without regular checks.

On this episode, Logan and Quint break down what to automate and what still needs a human hand on it: paychecks splitting into savings, bills paying themselves, retirement contributions, and budgeting. They also talk about where automation can go wrong if you set it and never check it again. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
