Budget Dog is an Answer to Prayers

We have been using Budget Dog for 2 months now and it has been an answer to prayers! After 10+ years of living paycheck to paycheck including undergraduate studies, medical school, residency, and the first 2 years of my husband as a full time physician, we finally found something that works. Although the initial investment felt like more than we could afford, we took the leap and we have already recouped the entire cost of the course (and a little bit more). Within the first 4 weeks of the Budget Dog course, we found an extra $1800 that we had been “leaving on the table”. We finally have a vision of what financial freedom truly looks like for us and goals that will get us there. The Budget Dog team is extremely helpful and responsive usually answering questions within 1-2 business days. They frequently check in to support us when life gets busy which is huge! We love Budget Dog and would recommend it to anyone!

Thank you so much for sharing this! Hearing that Budgetdog has been an answer to your prayers after more than 10 years of living paycheck to paycheck means so much to us. Finding that extra $1,800 in just the first four weeks and already recouping the cost of the course is incredible, but we’re even more excited that you now have a clear vision of what financial freedom looks like for your family.

That clarity, confidence, and sense of direction is exactly what we want families to walk away with. We’re so grateful you took the leap and trusted us to be part of your journey. We can’t wait to see what you accomplish next!

Genuine care for financial success

So far, the information provided has been relatively easily digestible. It's helpful being able to watch, re-watch, and likely watch again educational videos until I understand. It's also helpful to have past information/other resources at our fingertips within Skool. I appreciate the quick turnaround with responses for personal questions I ask the BDA coaches through chat (or even the Thursday Q&A). Communication is important for not feeling lost or forgotten in this growing community. Above all, I appreciate how genuine Brennan and the team has been to encourage us to be successful. The encouraging words to the community makes the love palpable. After years of (now) understanding I have been misled for financial advice, I have been skeptical to trust others when it comes to finances. I know it is my responsibility to understand where my money is going and why, but I didn't necessarily know the best approach to accomplish this. It felt like a leap of faith with BDA but I have yet to be disappointed. Since joining BDA, I have been able to learn and understand the value of the "core" to being able to invest (weeks 1-4), be vulnerable about my financial situation, and gain confidence in knowing if I trust the process, I can take control of my goals/future. I have so much to learn in the remainder of the course and years to come but hopefully, with the help of BDA coaches and community, will thrive. I look forward to it all!

Thank you so much for sharing this. It means a lot to hear that being able to revisit the lessons, lean on the Skool resources, and get quick support from the coaches has helped you feel connected and confident throughout the process.

We especially appreciate the trust you placed in BDA after feeling skeptical about financial advice in the past. Seeing you build a strong foundation, become more comfortable being vulnerable about your finances, and gain confidence in taking control of your goals is exactly why Budgetdog Academy exists.

You’ve already made meaningful progress, and we’re excited for everything you’ll continue to learn and accomplish alongside the coaches and community. Your future is bright, and we’re grateful to be part of the journey!

Amazing

We really appreciate the guidance through all of this. There’s zero judgement, only math. Budgetdog has helped us take control of our finances and work toward our financial goals. Any time we have a question, there are resources to help us through it and the tools provided are extremely helpful. We can’t wait to see the other side, but we are already feeling like we are on the right track! The coaches are awesome and their feedback is super thorough. Definitely feel invincible with Budgetdog in our corner!

It’s also awesome to hear how valuable the resources, tools, and thorough coaching feedback have been whenever questions come up. That kind of clarity and support is exactly what we want everyone in Budgetdog Academy to experience.

Never looking back!

Budgetdog is exactly what we have needed - we just wish that we had found it sooner! Having a clear plan to pay off our debt and putting a date to those debt payoffs has given us peace of mind and clarity for our future. Excited to dive into investments and pass along all that we learn down to our kids!

If you want cheap- this program is not for you.

We’ve been with the program for about 2 months now and truly believed it was the best decision. Full transparency, the program is pricey. The program does not customize and work one on one with you. However, if you want something cheap, want to make easy cash and fast- this program is not it for you. But you better believe that cheap program is going to sell you something that’s not going to last. The program that provides customized one on one service will definitely cost you more with hidden fees.
This program, Budgetdog, is not the perfect fit for everyone- it’s for people who are serious about their financial future. Someone who is willing to roll back their sleeves, follow the program, and then some! Like that saying, “give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” Budgetdog teaches you the roadmap, give you those resources, has it structured and watered down to basic everyday lingo that makes sense, and has a community that rallies behind you. You really get what you put into it.
We’re happy with the program and trusting a process that has clearly proved it worked.

The information in the academy is…beneficial but too expensive

The information in the academy is throughly worth while and very beneficial but it is all prerecorded education and it is not personalized at all. This would be great if it didn’t cost $7500. The academy is not worth the cost. I also was contacted at the end of 6 months to join another portion of the academy for additional cost, when I said no I never heard from anyone again. I did make changes in my finances based on what I learned but I also am now $7500 deeper in debt and everything I learned would have been available for free if I had just done my own research on finances and investing. I personally would only recommend this if you truly have money to burn and if you are young and just starting your investments. I found very little that was geared to an older investor who is behind and starting late. I also felt that the leaders constant posts about how much money (the money he is taking from people signing up for the course) he is investing every week made me feel like he was bragging and that I’d never be able to do the same. Again, the course is beneficial but it is very expensive!!!

Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad to hear that the Academy was beneficial and that you were able to make positive changes to your finances.

We understand your concerns about the investment, the lack of personalization, and the limited content for those starting later in their investing journey. We also understand your frustration with not hearing from the team after declining the additional program. Our goal is to provide education, guidance, and support, while active engagement and implementation also play an important role in the results.

We appreciate you sharing your experience, and we wish you continued success on your financial journey!

The finance education you’ve been looking for

Remember that finance class you took in school that changed your life? It taught exactly how to systems becoming a millionaire and what specific things to do to budget, save for retirement, become financially free, and set your kids up for success!

No? Yeah me neither.

This course and academy? It’s everything you’ve been complaining about not being taught when you were growing up. They teach you so much, at a simply level, and hold you accountable!

You see others just like you doing it, and a few steps ahead looking back at you encouraging you to keep going.

It’s simply life-changing.

Just do it

I came into Budgetdog having no real sense of financial education. Budgetdog has allowed me to take control of my finances and actually see that my high amount of student debt can be paid off. The coaches answer all your questions and help you in any way they can.

Life changing course - worth the investment

We’ve been members for less than 2 months but the tools available to us and the lessons taught have been incredibly valuable. The money we’re making and saving and putting to work in the initial 6 months will more than pay for the investment of joining. If you’re on the fence about joining, don’t be. This is going to set our family up for financial freedom that we never saw possible before.

Worth every penny

The academy was a wonderful experience, and the community is like no other, extreamely supportive and encouraging. It was worth every penny, but be prepared to show up - it paid for itself multiple times before the 6 months were over.

Brennan and the team

Brennan and the team have really taken the time to get this all together for people to be financially prepared and you can tell how much work they have put into this. Even his posts on our site for budgetdog you can tell how thoughtful and supportive he is to each and everyone of us. When I came into budgetdog I thought I would feel like I didn’t belong and let me tell you that was not true at all. Brennan and the other people on budgetdog the team are so encouraging. I have learned truly so much. I am thankful to Brennan and the team.

We love Budegtdog!

Our experience with Budgetdog and the Budgetdog Academy, specifically, has been really great! We have followed Brennan on Instagram for almost a year before signing up for the Academy, so we knew what we were getting into and that it would be worth every penny.
Life has been unexpectedly busy on our end and we've fallen behind several times, yet the coaches have continued to encourage us, support us, and answer all our questions.
We look forward to updating this review once we graduate!

Recently joined Budgetdog Academy and…

Recently joined Budgetdog Academy and have been absolutely blown away at how comprehensive of a program it is and how many lives it’s changing for generations to come! The community is something I’ve never experienced before! Likeminded people looking for knowledge to steward their finances properly, and create generational wealth by automating everything. Brennan and his wife Erin are two of the kindest most generous people I’ve ever had the pleasure of crossing paths with! The knowledge that someone can gain from this academy is truly priceless and worth every bit of the investment to change the trajectory of your life and reach financial freedom! This is the real deal and there is nothing else out there like this program. Brennan is next level and quite honestly a genius! Just in the short two weeks since we have joined we have learned so many things we did not know and it’s just the beginning! If someone wants to learn how to stop stressing about money, pay off debt, change your money mindset, and to strive towards financial freedom Budgetdog is it! Brennan and his entire team are just unbelievable and the opportunity of having this community for a lifetime was the best decision I can say we’ve ever made to date for our family’s wellbeing and future!

So much learning!

I'm only in week 7 of the 6 month process, but I have learned so much thus far. Realizing what's going on with your money is so enlightening and refreshing, but learning what to actually do with your money, is right up my alley. I need a plan and that's something I'll get our Budgetdog. I like hitting goals and having a plan!

Truly transformative program

I purposely waited a few months into Budgetdog Academy before writing a review so I could give honest, long-term feedback—and I can confidently say it’s a fantastic, comprehensive program!

It covers essential money management skills that were completely missing from my high school and college education. Thanks to the structured curriculum and the positive, encouraging environment, I now have total clarity on my finances. I am on a clear path to achieve my retirement goals, fund my kid’s college education, and enjoy our lifestyle goals like family vacations without guilt. If you want a supportive space to build real, lasting wealth, this program is worth every penny. Pro tip: You must treat it like a class and prioritize the program. Remember your WHY you wanted to join and everything else is easy!!
