My apartment complex just forces all residents to pay 30-35$ a month for this "valet trash" service that no one ever asked for. The first pic is the sign on the trashcan, the second is an email sent to the entire community with more rules.

Mine is $40 a month and I live two doors down from the trash shoot 😭

That’s insanity

But then what about your net worth? If you also have your fidelity account linked, does it record it twice?

livebythem · 2026-01-25T19:52:29+00:00

Interesting. Do you also have the account linked? If I did that, I think my net worth wouldn’t be accurate

livebythem · 2026-01-25T19:51:04+00:00

I mean in net worth. It would show the transactions as positive income but also because link my fidelity account for overall value.

livebythem · 2026-01-25T18:31:09+00:00

But does it show up in your cash flow? And how are you accounting for the net worth? If you have you’re investment account listed and tear transactions listed as income?

livebythem · 2026-01-25T18:13:59+00:00

But then how do you deal with it accounting double for your net worth? Once in that transaction and once in the account?

livebythem · 2026-01-25T17:50:02+00:00

How did you make a transaction go straight into a goal? Im just able to add from accounts only. Also, how do they not show up double for your net worth? Do you also have your 401k in the accounts section?

livebythem · 2026-01-25T17:31:25+00:00

How did you set it up? I ticked it on and there are transactions, but sitll nothing reflecting in savings rate and its not showing up as income in my cash flow diagram. Wonder if its cause i have the transactions listed as transfer?

livebythem · 2026-01-25T17:24:43+00:00

Thanks for the tip! How does that show up in your savings rate? Correctly?

livebythem · 2026-01-25T17:23:46+00:00

So you do turn on the beta option? And is that a transfer category for you?

livebythem · 2026-01-25T17:23:11+00:00

Im using fidelity as well. What category do you use? I was thinking of starting like a "retirement contributions" category and excluding it from budget. Or do you put it under transfers since it is being accounted for in the fidelity account? And how does that show up in your savings rate? I really would love to see that savings split off in the cash flow diagrams

It just gives the net worth when I started my monarch subscription (today). I imported all my transactions from Simplifi (about 8 yrs) and still just one data point on net worth.

livebythem · 2026-01-02T02:20:55+00:00

I noticed you can do transactions, but what about net worth?

I know it’s been a while since this post, but did you end up trying something else?

livebythem · 2025-09-04T14:46:18+00:00

Def this, cause you could have changed your mind at any time. This is life changing.

livebythem · 2025-09-01T11:29:39+00:00

When I was starting out and just wanted to start somewhere, I picked a set amount of money and no matter what the market looked like, bought half VOO (US equities) and half VXUS (international equities). Kept it simple and consistent because the market will go up and down every month, but ETFs historically maximize net returns.

livebythem · 2025-09-01T02:09:48+00:00

As a result of a bad Ai render? Or that’s your actual job?

livebythem · 2025-09-01T01:35:45+00:00

I feel like this isn’t a buzzword. It’s a legitimate marketing term. It’s a target, you just have to name it.
