I spent $80 on a fancy budget planner that I never opened.
I saw it online and thought having the perfect notebook would finally get my finances sorted, but it's been sitting on my desk for three months untouched. I could have just used a free app or a regular notebook I already owned. Has anyone else wasted cash on a tool that didn't help at all?

Eighty dollars for a notebook? That is a serious chunk of change just sitting there. I bought a fancy pen once for thirty bucks that I was too scared to actually write with, so it just collected dust. The pressure to make everything in it perfect is totally real. You almost need to spill coffee on it first just to take the pressure off.

Oh man, I feel that. I did the same thing with a pricey meal kit subscription. The trick is to just start using the planner for anything, even just a grocery list, to break the seal. Once it's not perfect anymore, it gets way easier to actually use it for its real job.
