Episode Synopsis


Ever had a sinking feeling reviewing your bank statement or felt overwhelmed managing your finances?

You're not the only one. This episode features Sam Boardman, the mastermind behind Spending Made Easy, a software designed to simplify budgeting, reduce financial stress, and put you back in control of your money. 

Sam takes us on her journey from the genesis of her software, which started humbly as an Excel spreadsheet, to its present form.

She introduces us to the interactive dashboard, account list, and bills account, and how automation makes sure all bills are paid on time. We also learn about the 'fluffy' account, Sam's innovative approach to managing day-to-day expenses.

Crucially, Spending Made Easy is not linked to any bank accounts, providing a secure platform to run 'what if' scenarios and get insight on when you can expect to reach your financial goals. 

With Spending Made Easy, your financial plan is not a one-size-fits-all. It allows you to tailor the software to suit your individual needs. It's an independent tool that helps you visualize your spending habits, track progress against goals, and make adjustments as needed.

We discuss the various categories and locations within the software, the pie chart feature that provides a clear view of your spending, and the loan calculator feature.

Finally, we hear about Sam's entrepreneurial journey and how Spending Made Easy can help you streamline your finances. Tune in to equip yourself with the tools to take control of your financial trajectory!
