Our Story
Monkey Budget started with a simple frustration: money news was everywhere, but understanding what actually mattered felt harder than it should. Every day, headlines move markets and shift the economy, yet the impact on real life - your rent, your retirement, and your grocery bill - often gets lost in the noise.
We built Monkey Budget to bridge that gap. We are a dedicated news aggregator and intelligence hub designed for people who want to stay informed without being overwhelmed.
In an era of automated feeds and AI-generated noise, we believe in the power of a human lens. Our process is built on three pillars:
-
Daily Curation: Every day, we hand-select and update a feed of the most important financial news links. We don't rely on algorithms; a real person scans the headlines to find the stories that truly impact your wallet.
-
Weekly Analysis: Once a week, we send out the Monkey Budget Newsletter. This is where we go beyond the links, providing analysis into the top stories and explaining the "why it matters" for your personal finances.
-
Expert Guides: Alongside our news feed, we publish original, in-depth articles that serve as foundational guides for budgeting and investing in today's economy.
Our mission is to translate "market-speak" into plain English and filter the chaos of the news cycle into a clear path forward. At Monkey Budget, we don’t just report the news; we help you master the news so you can master your money.
