Hey,

It’s Anirban here. Welcome to the 6th edition of rebranded alivewithad.

In this newsletter, we help you manage your finances while you travel the world as a digital nomad. 

This is your place to get bite-sized info about the nomad life. Here you go:

Quick tip

Set a recurring calendar reminder to check your subscriptions once a month. You’ll be surprised how many you forgot about (and don’t need anymore).

Money to-do

Right now, transfer a small fixed amount (even $5 or equivalent in your currency) into a separate “freedom fund” account.

Treat it like rent for your future freedom.

App to check out

Plum: A smart savings app that analyses your spending and auto-saves tiny amounts. Great for users in the UK & EU. Not in those regions? Try Qapital (US) or Snoop (UK) for similar smart tracking.

alivewithad special tip for nomads

If you're hopping countries often, open a borderless multi-currency account like Wise.

It protects your money from hidden charges and has been a real help for people working across time zones who don’t always get paid on time.

📌 TL;DR

  • Check your subscriptions once a month

  • Move $5 to a separate “freedom fund”

  • Try Plum (UK/EU), Qapital (US), or Snoop (UK)

  • For frequent travelers, Wise helps avoid fees and pay delays

Thanks for reading. : )

I will see you next week.

Your nomad friend,

Anirban
