Episode Summary by AI


I reviewed my finances last night and paid off two credit cards, freeing up around $300 in monthly payments and bringing me closer to being debt-free. I discussed the odd inflation of net worth stats online and emphasized that monthly expenses matter more than debt totals. I shared my upcoming plan to pay off the remaining debt, prep for moving in with Lexi, and manage paying double rent. I also detailed my work with Trey’s check-in system and a slight increase in hours from Mina.

My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI


I feel accomplished and proud today. Paying off those cards gave me a boost, not just financially but mentally. I’m in a good rhythm with my phone boundaries and productivity is up. The debt paydown plan is finally real, and even though I’m losing the Hill AFB income, I feel ready. Still, I’m annoyed with miscommunications and how people think something “simple” is easy to build. But overall, I’m feeling optimistic, organized, and focused on what matters.


What I Did Today - Summarized by AI


Paid off two credit cards, reviewed financials and ran debt payoff hypotheticals, calculated upcoming monthly expenses, planned for double rent during move-in, worked on Trey’s check-in tracker in Notion, coordinated hours with Mina, reflected on social media Tesla debates, and prepared for date night with Lexi.
