About Budgetdog Academy

The Budgetdog framework starts with tracking money through three statements: a budget, a balance sheet and amortization schedules.[3] The next steps are growing that money and choosing the financial and insurance products that fit each person's situation.[3] The company calls its method the Budgetdog Difference.[2]

Brennan hosts the Money on My Mind podcast, and Budgetdog also sells a book.[2][3] It offers a free AI budget template and takes applications for one-to-one work.[3]
