- Math Trauma is Real
You started a business to follow your passion, not to relive your high school algebra nightmares. Maths and Drama were my favourite highshool subjects - just saying. - Spreadsheets Are Out to Get You
One wrong formula, and suddenly, your coffee budget is bigger than your payroll. - Receipts Have Legs
No matter how carefully you store them, they will disappear into the void… probably next to your missing socks.
- The ATO Has No Sense of Humour

You could be dreaming of success… instead of staying up at 2 AM wondering where that $37.42 went. - You'll Invent New Swear Words
Reconciling bank transactions is a surefire way to discover a whole new dialect of frustration. Especially if LDG hasn't set up some freaky cool automations in your software - Your Calculator Will Gaslight You
It was $5,000 a second ago… now it's $4,999.98. Where did the two cents go?! - "Creative Accounting" is Not a Skill You Want to Develop
Unless you enjoy explaining your artistic financial interpretations to an auditor and they have all the time in the world for you to explain yourself. - You'll Actually Start to Miss Emails
Because sorting invoices makes even spam seem like exciting reading. - Your Business Needs You
