The envelope system is a money management technique that helps track exactly how much money you have in each budget category for the month by keeping your cash tucked away in physical envelopes. Once you’ve decided how much to budget for each category, you are only allowed to spend the amount of cash available in each envelope. Once you run out of cash, you can’t spend money in that category until the following month.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
