BigSpender - Think Before You Buy 💰
Transform impulse purchases into long-term wealth with the power of compound interest visualization.
What BigSpender Does:
BigSpender intelligently detects when you're about to make an online purchase and shows you exactly how much that money could grow if invested instead. It's like having a financial advisor that gently reminds you of the true cost of spending.
Key Features:
🛒 Smart Checkout Detection - Automatically identifies checkout pages on Amazon, Shopify, Etsy, Stripe, and hundreds of other e-commerce sites
💡 Investment Reality Check - Shows real-time calculations: "Spending $89 now? That could grow to $597 in 20 years if invested in an S&P 500 ETF"
📊 Complete Transaction History - Track both your smart investment decisions and purchases to see your financial journey
💎 One-Click Vanguard Integration - Easily redirect to invest in VOO (S&P 500 ETF) when you choose wealth over spending
📈 Wealth Building Dashboard - See your total savings, potential future value, and track your progress over time
🎯 Gentle Nudging, Not Blocking - Never prevents purchases, just provides perspective to help you make informed decisions
