Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Subfinancing and how to use our guides.
What is Subfinancing?
+Subfinancing is a financial education platform that explains money concepts for people who feel genuinely lost. We write guides that assume zero prior knowledge, use plain language, and focus on helping you understand—not telling you what to do.
Who writes the guides?
+Our editorial team writes all guides. We research thoroughly, cite authoritative sources, and focus on explaining concepts clearly rather than giving specific financial advice.
Is Subfinancing free?
+Yes. All of our guides are free to read. We may offer premium features in the future, but our core educational content will always be accessible at no cost.
Do you sell financial products?
+No. We don't sell any financial products, and we don't use affiliate links. Our content is not influenced by partnerships or commissions.
Why don't you give specific advice?
+Because specific financial advice depends on your individual situation. Instead of pretending to know what's right for everyone, we explain how things work so you can make informed decisions for yourself.
Why is the tone so... calm?
+Because financial stress is real, and we don't think adding urgency helps anyone learn. Our goal is to make you feel more oriented, not more anxious. If something feels scary, we'd rather explain why it doesn't have to be.
Where should I start?
+If you're completely new to personal finance, try our 'Financial Foundations' learning path. It's a curated sequence of guides that covers essential concepts everyone should understand.
How often do you publish new guides?
+We publish one to two new guides per week. Quality matters more to us than quantity. Subscribe to our newsletter to get notified when new guides are available.
Can I suggest a topic?
+Absolutely. We love hearing what our readers want to learn about. Send topic suggestions to hello@subfinancing.com.
How do I use the glossary?
+The glossary contains plain-language definitions of financial terms. Use it as a reference when you encounter unfamiliar words in our guides or elsewhere. Each definition links to related terms so you can explore connections.
