The $200 mistake killing your savings every month — and you probably don't even know you're making it. In this video, I break down the silent money leak draining the average American household and show you exactly how to stop it tonight.

Most people lose around $200 a month to forgotten subscriptions, delivery fees, premium upgrades, and tiny "convenience" charges that quietly add up. Over 30 years, that's $294,000 in lost wealth — gone. Not because you're bad with money, but because the system is designed to make you forget.

In this video, you'll learn:
✅ The 5 hidden buckets where your $200 disappears every month
✅ Why your brain literally can't see small recurring charges (the psychology)
✅ The real cost of this leak over 10, 20, and 30 years
✅ A 5-step fix you can complete tonight
✅ The 48-hour rule that kills 70% of impulse purchases

If you've ever looked at your bank account and wondered "where did my money go?" — this is the answer.
