Last week, I told you about how I helped my sister find over $300 she didn’t know she had ($334.28 plus interest, to be exact). Today, I want to share a little more about how that happened and why it might be worth your time to check for yourself. That day, I was doing one of my favorite “nerdy money things”...checking missingmoney.com to see if there were any unclaimed funds under my name. Now, to be honest, I’ve done this search before... multiple times. 😅 But since I keep my money pretty organized, nothing has shown up for me. I always make sure old accounts are closed properly, rollovers are done the right way, and no loose ends are left hanging. But this time, while I was looking myself up... my sister’s name popped up. I passed the info along, and just like that, she claimed $334.28 that she didn’t even know was owed to her. Helping her find that money felt so good. It reminded me how powerful small actions can be...and how sometimes, being a little “money curious” pays off. If you haven’t searched missingmoney.com yet, do it today. It only takes a few minutes, and you might find something waiting for you or someone close to you. Eager to see you thrive, Prisca P.S. Found money is great. But planned money? Even better.

Hi! I'm Prisca, money coach for professional Millenial women
I help professional women balance their desire to enjoy life now with the need to save for the future without stressing over every dollar.
Last week, I met with a client for a Smart Money Strategy Session. She felt like she was drowning, and it was clear why. Every dollar coming in was already spent. So saving? Felt impossible. As we talked, it became clear that most of her money decisions were being made in the moment. Whatever expense popped up, that’s what got handled. But there wasn’t a plan for how much she could afford ahead of time. No strategy to guide those choices. I challenged her to pick one major expense to either...
You’ve probably seen the “Buy Now, Pay Later” options all over the place…Affirm, Afterpay, Klarna, you name it. It’s tempting to break up a purchase into smaller payments instead of paying the full amount upfront. But here’s something you need to know:BNPL loans are now being reported to your credit report. 👉🏽In April, I shared on Threads that Affirm had already started reporting to Experian. The others are following suit. This can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you handle...
My piece of joy last week: I reached out to Nutre (a meal prep company I use sometimes) and asked if they could apply the nurse’s discount they were promoting to my account. At the time, I had a different offer… a free pound of cooked chicken. Nice, but honestly? That 15% nurse discount was more valuable to me. And guess what? It was super easy. They made the switch. Lesson: It never hurts to ask. And no one cares about your money like you do.(I’m a close second 😜) This email may contain...
