To Jesus, our attitude towards money is of utmost importance, because it is a reflection of our attitude towards God. Did you know that Jesus spoke more about money than He did about any other topic? In fact, 15% of all the recorded words of Jesus are on the subject of money-more than His teachings on heaven and hell combined. We need to recognize that managing money is a spiritual issue. More marriages have blown apart over financial issues than almost any other factor. Financial health is important not only to our bank balance but to the atmosphere in our home. The truth is, control over money has less to do with how much we make, and a lot more to do with how we manage what we have. Once, an interviewer asked him, “How much money is enough?” Rockefeller replied, “Just a little bit more!”Īs outrageous as it sounds, haven’t we all been there? Whatever our income level, we think to ourselves, If only I had just a little bit more… Then, at last, our budget would have some breathing room and we will be satisfied with our finances.īut Rockefeller’s response pokes a hole in that theory. For all practical purposes, his money was virtually limitless. Rockefeller was one of the richest men in the world. They have a super sharp team in place that I wanted to be a part of to grow, learn and employ my experience on an application that changes lives and saves marriages.Money Management for the Christian Family I was thrilled when I got the news because I really did want to join the YNAB team. Each step along the way confirmed this was a good fit from my side and I continued to hope the feeling was mutual. Most of the rounds consisted of casual chats with different members of the team and as the process progressed, there was more technical assessment involved. It was a straightforward, friendly interview process, however. I didn’t realize it but there were to be 9 rounds ( 9!) of interviews so patience was my friend during the wait. They have a passionate user base and are smart about how they market opportunities to join their team so I had sit back and wait a bit while they sorted through all the applications. Not surprisingly, they had a lot of interest. Did I mention I’m a budgeting junkie? As I read through the description I kept thinking, “I want this job”. Also, I have used the YNAB product in the past and knew very well it was of top-notch quality.
Working on a SaaS web budgeting application, working with a stack I have grown to love in recent years (Ruby/Rails/Postgres/JavaScript), getting to help with interesting architectural challenges and getting to do some some DevOps work once in awhile.
Besides all the fridge benefits of working for YNAB (5 weeks vacation, annual meet-up, 401k, working remotely, very flexible schedule, etc.) the role itself sounded like a perfect fit for me. Go read that job posting because it is one of the best I’ve ever seen, and believe me when I say I’ve read a lot of job postings! It’s hard not to be interested in a job after reading a description like that. A few months ago, I was catching up on new articles in Feedly and stumbled across a developer job posting at.
