Meet the People Behind Your Financial Growth
We're a small team based in Nakhon Sawan who've spent years helping people in Thailand make sense of their money. Not through complicated jargon or fancy promises, but through practical guidance that actually works in everyday life.
Who We Are
Every person here has their own story with money – some learned the hard way, others through years of helping families and small businesses. What connects us is a genuine desire to help you build better financial habits without the usual pressure or unrealistic expectations.
Siriporn Kanthong
Financial Educator
Siriporn started tracking her family's expenses on paper notebooks back in 2013. That simple habit helped her save enough to support her parents during a difficult year. Now she teaches others how small daily actions add up to real financial security. She's particularly good at helping people who feel overwhelmed by budgeting – breaking it down into steps that don't feel like homework.
Anong Prasertsuk
Spending Patterns Specialist
Anong worked in retail banking for eight years before she realized most people didn't need complex investment advice – they needed help understanding where their money was going each month. She's developed a straightforward approach to expense tracking that focuses on patterns rather than perfection. Her workshops in 2024 helped over 200 people identify spending habits they didn't even realize they had.
How We Actually Teach This Stuff
Look, we've seen too many financial courses that promise transformation in 30 days. That's not how real change happens. Our approach is built on something simpler – regular practice with actual support when you get stuck.
- We start with your current situation, not some idealized version. Bring your messy receipts and confusing bank statements – we've seen it all.
- You'll learn using your own expenses, not fictional examples. This makes it relevant and honestly, much more interesting.
- Sessions are small on purpose. Usually 6-8 people, so you can ask the questions you're actually wondering about.
- We meet twice a month for six months starting October 2025. Enough time to build real habits without feeling like another obligation.
- Between sessions, you'll track your spending using whatever method works for you – app, spreadsheet, or notebook. We're not picky about tools.
Common Obstacles (and What We Do About Them)
Starting feels overwhelming
Most people tell us they know they should track expenses, but the thought of categorizing every purchase from the past month makes them want to hide. Plus, those expense apps often have 47 different categories when you really only need maybe 10.
What we suggest
Start with just one week. Track only the expenses you remember without digging through receipts. Use three broad categories: necessary, optional, and unclear. That's it. Once you see the pattern, adding detail becomes much easier because you understand why it matters.
Life doesn't follow a budget template
You download a budget spreadsheet, fill it in perfectly, then your motorcycle needs repairs, your niece's wedding happens, or you simply want to enjoy dinner with friends without calculating the cost per bite. The budget feels like a scolding parent rather than a helpful tool.
What we suggest
We teach flexible boundaries instead of rigid budgets. You'll learn to create different spending plans for different months, include a realistic "unexpected stuff" category, and adjust without guilt when life happens. The goal is awareness and intentional choices, not restriction and punishment.
Keeping track feels tedious
You start strong, tracking every baht for three days. Then you forget for a week, feel behind, and give up entirely. Or you're using an app that requires seventeen taps to log a 40-baht coffee purchase. The system becomes the problem.
What we suggest
Find your minimum viable tracking method. Some people photograph receipts and sort them weekly. Others send themselves quick voice notes. A few genuinely enjoy spreadsheets. We'll help you test different approaches during the first month until you find something that fits your actual life, not the life you think you should have.
Partner doesn't participate
You're motivated to get finances organized, but your spouse or partner thinks tracking is unnecessary, invasive, or just another thing you're obsessing about. Trying to manage shared expenses when only one person is paying attention creates tension and incomplete data.
What we suggest
Start with your own spending first. Don't push your partner to join immediately. Once they see you making calmer decisions about money and having less month-end stress, they often become curious. We also offer specific sessions on shared financial planning that focus on collaboration rather than control – couples find these less confrontational.
The Support You'll Actually Get
We're not the type to send automated encouragement emails or disappear between sessions. Financial habits change when you have real people to ask real questions. Here's what ongoing support looks like with us.
Monthly Check-ins
Scheduled calls where you can share what's working and what's frustrating. These usually last 20-30 minutes and happen on weekday evenings.
Email Questions
Send us your expense tracking questions anytime. We respond within two business days, sometimes faster if we happen to be online.
Group Problem-Solving
Optional monthly meetups where participants share challenges. Often someone else is dealing with the exact situation you're facing.
Template Library
Access to the tracking templates, categorization guides, and planning worksheets we've refined over years of teaching.
Our next program begins October 2025 with space for 12 participants. If you're in Nakhon Sawan or nearby provinces, we can arrange in-person sessions. For everyone else, we run everything through video calls that work reasonably well even with inconsistent internet.
