Penelope Ashby

Penelope Ashby writes Coinpurse's budgeting and saving coverage, focused on the systems and small habits that actually stick, not the ones that look good in a headline. She spent five years as a budgeting columnist at a regional business weekly, where she ran a recurring feature testing new apps and methods against her own household budget. She still tests every budgeting app she recommends on her own accounts for at least a full billing cycle before writing about it.
