The Burrito Rule

If you can eat it, you don't finance it.

My grandson Tyler showed me his phone last Easter. He'd bought a burrito, a pair of sneakers, and a lamp shaped like a mushroom, all in four easy payments.

Four easy payments on three different things is twelve payments, son. That ain't easy. That's a part-time job you don't get paid for.

Who's Walt?

A 78-year-old from Alabama who roasts your spending

Walt's grandkids got tired of his money lectures at Thanksgiving, so they set him up online. Now he tells everybody. He's a fictional character made with AI, and he says so up front. The habits he teaches are the plain, boring, proven kind.

Questions

Before you buy

What do I get?

A 49-page PDF you can download right after checkout. Print it, or fill it in on your phone or tablet with any PDF app.

Do I need to be good with money or math?

No. Every number can be tiny, and the book walks you through each step. If you can open your bank app, you can do this.

Is this financial advice?

No. It's general education about money habits and getting organized. It doesn't recommend any bank, app, card or investment, and it doesn't promise any amount of money. For big decisions, talk to a qualified professional.

Is Walt a real person?

No. Grandpa Walt is a fictional character created with AI. The book is written in his voice.

Mind your money, and it'll mind you.
