With summer almost here, so many of us are thinking about family travel, getting away for a bit, but you also want to make sure, given how expensive things are, that you are budgeting accordingly. One way to get your finances organized ahead of this busy season, and frankly, all year round is with the Monarch Money app. Monarch is a personal finance app that tracks everything, accounts, investments, savings goals, and spending. You can get your first year of Monarch Core for half off, just $50, with the promo code MoNews. What I like about Monarch, we've been using this for a while in my house, it keeps everything in one place. You're not bouncing between various financial apps. You can track your investments, you can track your banking, you can track your credit cards. It also has a weekly AI recap that's been very useful, that flags spending spikes, shifts in net worth, and upcoming expenses before they sneak up on you. That's probably the biggest thing for me and for so many of us, is taking that mental load off and that's something Monarch does. It feels less like reacting after money is gone and more like planning ahead. It's a real financial advisor in your pocket. You can use the code MoNews at monarch.com to get your first year off of Monarch Core half off at just $50.
Again, that's 50 percent off your first year at monarch.com with the code MoNews.

We're recording today out of our Industrious office in New York City, which is perfect for a team like ours because Industrious takes care of everything, so we can focus on bringing you the news.
**Mosheh Oinounou** (1:21)
Yes, we recently moved to the coworking space Industrious. We have locations around New York and around the world. We have an office in Manhattan. We've also turned one of the offices into a podcast studio where Jill and I record the podcast.
**Jill Wagner** (1:32)
And while we're working on putting it together, I love the snacks. They're complimentary. You've got all-day coffee.
**Mosheh Oinounou** (1:39)
They have special treats on a day-to-day basis every morning and every afternoon. Sometimes it basically serves as your breakfast. I've obviously used the office in New York, but whenever I'm on the road, I make sure to look up if there's an Industrious there, so I've used it in DC. I've used it in Indianapolis. It is a great co-working space, and we have a special deal for all of you to check it out, and see if it's a place where you just want to work out of individually, if you need a break, or if you want to move your office there. Right now, we have a special deal going with Industrious. We're offering 50 percent off for first-time day pass users. If you need a meeting room, if you need office space, or again, just a desk in the open space, head over to mo.news slash Industrious. When you see these beautiful spaces in person, you'll see what we mean. Again, mo.news slash Industrious. Book a tour or use it for the day, 50 percent off.
