About MindfulMoney
Plain-language financial education, written by people who have worked on the front lines of personal finance.
MindfulMoney started in 2024 with a simple frustration: most money content online is either too technical to be useful, or built to sell you something. We wanted a place that explained budgeting, saving, debt, credit, and the technology behind modern banking the way a knowledgeable friend would — clearly, honestly, and with no agenda.
What we do
We publish short, practical guides on personal finance fundamentals and on how artificial intelligence and automation are showing up in everyday financial life. Every article is written by a named author with real experience in the topic, and reviewed by at least one other member of the team before publication.
What we don't do
- We do not sell financial products, courses, software, or subscriptions.
- We do not manage money or offer personalized investment, tax, or legal advice.
- We do not accept sponsored content or paid placements in articles.
- We do not promise outcomes. Personal finance depends on your circumstances, and anyone guaranteeing results is not being straight with you.
How we're funded
MindfulMoney is funded by its founders. We may in future display clearly labeled display advertising to cover hosting and editorial costs. We will never allow advertisers to influence what we write.
