The bills, the renewals, the school forms, the folders you keep meaning to start β life admin is not glamorous, but it is mostly small, and small is beatable. These tools score the backlog, do the bill-due calendar maths, settle paper-versus-scan, and walk you through email zero, password inventories, insurance reviews, subscription audits, tax-file keeping, photo backups and the folders that would save your family a hard week. Kind, practical, one small session at a time — heroic weekends not required. The full detailed report costs less than a coffee: $3.95.

Subscriptions are priced to be forgotten β a monthly charge under about $20 is designed to slip past your attention, and the average household undercounts its own subscriptions by half. This calculator takes three honest numbers β how many subscriptions you have, what they total each month, and how many you barely use β and returns your annual cost, the number of rarely used subscriptions, and the annual figure a single cancellation session would win back. It also gives you the yearly review rhythm and points you to the wider spending tools over at money.phyrenix.com for the full picture.
Add up what your subscriptions really cost a year, see how many of them you barely use, and get the honest number a 20-minute cancellation session would give back.
Pull your latest bank or card statement and list every recurring charge, then compare it with the list in your head. The forgotten free-trials-turned-paid and the annual renewals you never noticed are the ones that only show up on the statement.
Would you re-sign today at this price? If the answer is no, the subscription is a habit, not a service. That single question cuts through the guilt about wasting a subscription you once used.
Usually not β most services cancel in two clicks from a settings page, and the ones that force a phone call are often the ones most worth leaving. One 20-minute session against the biggest annual figure first is the whole method.
Every tool answers instantly from our own knowledge and calculators β no AI wait, no account. Honest maths and plain-language guidance, always educational and never a substitute for professional advice: life-admin rules differ by country, employer and situation, so each answer tells you what is generally true, what to check locally, and what your next step should be β never hype, never pressure. Results are estimates and next-step aids, not legal, financial, insurance or tax opinions, and nothing you type is stored. Want the deeper, personalised version? Each has a $3.95 full report.
