When it comes to spending money responsibly, it’s not always the big splurges that can throw off your bank account- it’s the small, everyday costs that slip through the cracks. These hidden expenses might seem harmless, but over time, they can add up and drain your finances without you realizing.

Understanding how to recognize and address these challenges is an important step in building good money habits!
