Congratulations!

> Back in 2021, I was inspired by the financial independence movement and wanted a better way to plan my own life. I couldn’t find the right tool, so I started building.

That sounds a bit like selling shovels to the miners. Which is not a, uh, dig at the project, just an observation.

Everything can be modeled as selling shovels to the miners.

We're all building tools for other people. As long the users like a product, I think it's moot to call it shovel selling.

I think it depends on what the people are hoping to accomplish with the shovels and how realistic it is.

In this case it seems legit.
