From rent to the whole picture
Less guessing. More perspective.
A comparison is a starting point for better questions about where your money goes, not a verdict on how you live.
First question
“Does my rent make sense here?”
Add the rest of real life.
Enter groceries, your commute, subscriptions and other essentials. Manual entry keeps the first step simple.
Share your score your way.
Make a card for Stories, X or Reddit. Reveal your percentile without dollar figures, then challenge a friend to compare.
