Going back to new YNAB, BUT I am not participating in their stupid credit card system, and that seems to be making a big difference. We treat our credit cards like cash anyway, because they’re paid off weekly, so it doesn’t really make sense to complicate things. Hopefully I’ll be able to stay on top of the budget better this way.
