Our Story

Cashflow Routine didn’t start as a blog—it began as a frustration.
Back in 2018, James (our founder) was juggling freelance work while trying to keep his family’s budget on track. Spreadsheets piled up, bank statements became overwhelming, and every "simple budgeting tip" he found online either pushed expensive apps or investment schemes.
One late night—after yet another confusing encounter with financial jargon—he had enough.
