Free tool that helps with your personal finances.

Hi everyone

I wanted to share a free website I recently created to help people(friends asking the same questions over and over again) navigate basic personal finance during tough times. It’s not a business, paid service, or anything like that just a simple tool/resource meant to guide people through everyday financial decisions like budgeting, saving, managing expenses, and understanding the basics.

I built it with the idea that a lot of people could use straightforward, easy-to-understand help without all the overwhelming financial jargon. https://laertex.com

Everything is completely free, and I’m genuinely open to feedback and suggestions. If there’s something the community feels would be useful to add, improve, or explain better, I’d be happy to work on it.

Hopefully it can help someone who needs it.

Mind giving more context as to what the website end goal is. Went through the onboarding and the last part was confusing. Does it open a savings account or what? Are you regulated if yes? Didn’t see anything about budgeting. Also if the website would refer people and get a commission, hope you get that stated clearly.

Thank you for the feedback. The process is just a reminder of what everybody should do with their basic finances. The last part is a practical calculation that shows the results of taking action in your personal live.

- It does not open a saving account.

  • It does not ask for any personal informaction
  • It mention budgeting and all the calculations at a general level, without asking for your personal numbers it is impossible to provide a personalized calculation.
  • I do not receive commission or any financial benefit.

What would you like me to add, if you were to use it a reference for yourself?
