About Koma Takes Control

I’m documenting my real-life journey of budgeting by paycheck and preparing for retirement in the next 2–3 years. As a proud Gen X’er, I use two tools to manage my money:
💡 You Need A Budget (YNAB) – digital, flexible, every-dollar planning
📖 The Budget Mom Budget by Paycheck Workbook – paper-based tracking
On my channel you’ll find:
✅ Weekly check-ins to stay accountable and manage any overspending
💰 Paycheck allocations (“Ready to Assign” in YNAB)
🧾 Reconciliations to close the books accurately
📅 Monthly setups in both YNAB & Budget by Paycheck
This isn’t financial advice—I’m sharing what’s working (and what isn’t) as I prepare to retire with confidence. Subscribe, grab your glasses, and let’s get to it!
