Lucas and Luna sit down at the kitchen table for a no-nonsense conversation about personal finance for people who don't work on Wall Street. Each episode picks one money topic — from budgeting apps to credit card rewards to emergency funds — and walks through the numbers, the trade-offs, and the common mistakes. Lucas brings the data: median savings rates, average credit card debt, the real cost of a latte. Luna pushes back with real-life examples: what happens when a side hustle eats your sleep, or when a 'good deal' on a car loan turns bad. This is not about get-rich-quick schemes or secret hacks. It is about the slow, boring, effective work of managing your own money — and why that work matters more than any investment tip. Every episode ends with a specific question: Would you rather have an extra $200 a month or a paid-off car? How do you decide when to use a debit card vs. a credit card? Can you actually save for retirement and still afford to travel? By the end, you will not hav

The Compound Cost of Small Financial Decisions
Sep 29, 202611 minS5
Most people think their financial destiny is decided by one big move, like buying a house or changing jobs. But the real driver of wealth for everyday earners is the invisible erosion of small, recurring choices. In this episode, Lucas and Luna dissect the concept of micro-decisions—those five-dollar coffees, the auto-renewed subscriptions, the late fees paid in frustration, and the high-interest credit card balances carried month to month. We explore how these tiny leaks compound over time, not just in dollars lost, but in the psychological capital required to fix them. Using a specific case study of a mid-level professional who realized her net worth wasn't growing because of hidden friction costs, we show how identifying and plugging these small holes can free up cash flow without requiring a dramatic lifestyle change or a massive raise. This isn't about deprivation; it's about removing the tax on your attention that prevents your money from working for you. #PersonalFinance #MicroDecisions #CompoundInterest #CashFlow #FinancialHealth #BudgetingTips #DebtManagement #SavingsStrategy #MoneyMindset #FrictionCosts #SubscriptionCreep #LateFees #CreditCardInterest #WealthBuilding #FinancialLiteracy #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #SmartMoney Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
Most people treat budgeting like a tax on their freedom, but the real issue is that they are trying to control future behavior with past data. In this episode, we explore the concept of behavioral budgeting and why your plan fails not because you lack discipline, but because it ignores how you actually spend money in the moment. We look at specific friction points in everyday transactions and offer a structural fix that aligns your spending limits with your actual cognitive load. #BehavioralEconomics #PersonalFinanceTips #BudgetingStrategies #MoneyManagement #FinancialPsychology #SpendingHabits #CashFlow #SavingsGoals #DailyExpenses #FinancialFreedom #SmartSaving #ConsumerBehavior #WealthBuilding #MoneyMindset #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #FinanceShow #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
The True Cost of Subscription Creep in Your Budget
Sep 27, 20267 minS4
In this episode, we dissect the hidden erosion of personal wealth through untracked digital subscriptions. With the average consumer spending over one hundred dollars monthly on recurring services, Lucas and Luna explore how subscription creep creates a false sense of financial security while draining cash flow. We break down specific categories like streaming, software, and fitness memberships that quietly accumulate, using real-world examples to show why traditional budgeting often misses these small but lethal leaks. Listen to learn how to audit your own recurring expenses and reclaim hundreds of dollars annually by identifying what you actually use versus what you just pay for out of inertia. #PersonalFinance #SubscriptionCreep #BudgetingTips #MoneyManagement #RecurringExpenses #FinancialLiteracy #ConsumerSpending #CashFlow #DigitalSubscriptions #SavingsStrategy #ExpenseAudit #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #WealthBuilding #SmartSpending #FinancialHealth #MoneyMindset #DailyFinance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
Most people treat their credit score as a report card, but it is actually a lagging indicator of past behavior. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore why optimizing for the score often leads to suboptimal financial decisions, such as keeping old accounts open or carrying small balances unnecessarily. We look at how the FICO model weighs payment history, utilization, and age of accounts, and why chasing a perfect 800 can cost you more in lost opportunity than it saves in interest rates. If you are currently maxing out your cards to build history or refusing to close a low-limit card from 2015, this conversation will help you realign your strategy with actual wealth building rather than just score maintenance. #CreditScore #PersonalFinance #FICOModel #DebtManagement #FinancialLiteracy #CreditUtilization #WealthBuilding #MoneyMindset #LucasAndLuna #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #SmartMoney #CreditHealth #InterestRates #FinancialStrategy #EconomicsDaily #ConsumerFinance #MoneyTips Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
Most people let their cash sit in checking accounts losing value to inflation, or lock it all away in long-term CDs that offer poor liquidity. This episode introduces the bank account ladder, a specific strategy using staggered one-year certificates of deposit to balance yield and access. We break down how to structure a $10,000 portfolio across twelve monthly laddered deposits, turning idle cash into a steady income stream without sacrificing your ability to pay bills. By September 25, 2026, with rates holding steady, this simple structural shift can add meaningful dollars to your annual returns. #PersonalFinance #BankingStrategy #CertificateOfDeposit #InflationHedge #CashManagement #LiquidityPlanning #PassiveIncome #FinancialLiteracy #SavingsRate #RiskManagement #InterestRates #BudgetingTips #WealthBuilding #MoneyMindset #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #SmartSaving #FinancialIndependence Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
