Understand Expensive Decisions
Before You Buy Them
Clear, calm explanations of insurance, subscriptions, services, and financial commitments — so you don’t get blindsided by costs, fine print, or regret.
No hype. No pressure. Just practical explanations you can use right now.
Why This Exists
Big purchases are stressful — especially when money feels tighter than it should. And most explanations you find online are either sales pitches or jargon-filled nonsense.
Before You Buy X™ exists to break decisions down in plain language — what it is, what it costs, what can go wrong, and what questions to ask — so you can choose with confidence.
What We Explain
Insurance & Coverage
Deductibles, premiums, networks, coverage limits, and what “covered” really means.
Subscriptions & SaaS
Pricing traps, renewals, add-ons, contracts, and what you actually get for the money.
Financial Commitments
Loans, credit decisions, recurring payments, and the real-world tradeoffs people ignore.
Services & Contracts
Warranties, service agreements, cancellation terms, and fine print that bites later.
High-Cost Purchases
Big-ticket decisions where “cheap today” can become “expensive forever.”
Everything Else (“X”)
“X” is the variable. If it’s expensive, confusing, or high stakes — it belongs here.
