How do you manage your finances when paying for courses or study materials online?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been signing up for a few online courses and buying study materials recently, and one thing that really helped me avoid overspending was checking my bank balance before making any purchase. It’s surprisingly easy to click “buy” and not realize you’re close to your limit, especially when you’re juggling multiple subscriptions or course fees.

A simple tool I’ve used is nbadbalanceinquiry.org, which lets me quickly see what’s in my account before I commit to spending. That little check has saved me from a few awkward declines and unnecessary fees.

I’m curious do you have any budgeting habits or tools you rely on when paying for educational content online? How do you make sure you don’t overspend while keeping up with your learning goals?

Would love to hear your experiences!
