We just rebuilt our free resources library from the ground up: sixteen calculators, guides, and references, researched against 2026 numbers and built around the questions clients actually bring us. Everything is free, nothing asks for your email, and the calculators run entirely in your browser, so what you type never leaves your device.

Why give it away? Because in our experience the knowledge was never really the product. Most people can find out what to do with money; the hard part is doing it month after month, and that's the part coaching exists for. The tools handle the math. We'll be here for the follow-through.

Here's the map.

The calculators and tools

Budgeting Template Calculator: answer five questions, get a starting budget across 13 categories. The fastest way to get a first draft.

Debt Payoff Calculator: enter your real debts and compare snowball vs. avalanche, with debt-free dates, total interest, and a month-by-month payment plan.

Emergency Fund Calculator: a target sized to your actual essentials and situation, not a generic "3 to 6 months," with dated milestones along the way.

Savings Challenge Generator: 52-week, steady, or custom goal-by-date, with a check-off tracker that saves your progress.

Money Goals Worksheet: turns "someday" into an amount, a date, and a monthly number, then prints a goal sheet for the fridge.

Financial Planning Checklist: what to do with your next dollar, in order, with progress that saves as you go.

The guides

Money 101 is the crash course school skipped: nine short lessons, each with one action for today. The other four go deep on the subjects with the most expensive mistakes: how your credit score works, investing basics, what insurance you actually need, and eating well on a budget, all with verified 2026 numbers instead of recycled advice from 2019.

The references

A plain-English glossary with more than 100 terms. An honest 2026 budgeting app comparison with current prices and zero affiliate links. The best personal finance podcasts, every one verified still publishing. The best money books matched to your situation, nearly all free at the library. And our Average American Financial Statistics page, for when you wonder how your numbers compare.

Where to start

Pick by symptom. If money disappears every month and you don't know where, start with the budgeting calculator. If debt is the weight, the debt payoff calculator will hand you a plan in two minutes. If you're not sure what order to do anything in, the checklist is the map. And if you'd rather talk it through with a person, that's the whole point of the free Financial Freedom Assessment.

One ask: if you go looking for something and it isn't there, tell us. This library grows in the direction of real questions.
