This is about having a standard practice of reviewing your bank statements, credit card statements, and other similar reports on a regular, recurring basis.
To choose Yes, your eyes need to actually read every single item on the list. If you use some kind of software or tool to process the list before viewing it, that's okay, as long as you still see every entry.
If you would only do this "when you think there was an issue" or "once in a while but not regularly", that is NOT sufficient to vote Yes, in that case you should vote No. If you have an assistant or AI robot or other type of system that reviews every transaction but you do not personally do so, pick No.
Ask any questions below.
1,000I regularly manually add all transaction into my accounting software, and verify that everything balances with my accounts. If I purchase multiple items in one transaction, I usually break them down into categories.
I'm surprised how few people do this, particularly when the economy is so bad, as it allows great visibility into what I spend money on.
@wolf it looks like this is a common practice on Manifold! Now we need to find the population rate somehow.
