Rant: Deleting my budget spreadsheet by mistake showed me why simple backups matter

Honestly, I was cleaning my desktop and dragged the wrong file to the trash without thinking. Tbh, I freaked out because that sheet had all my bills for the month. Ngl, after I calmed down, I realized I had an old version saved in my email from Tuesday. Now I set a weekly reminder to save a copy, and it's made my money tracking way less stressful.

Seems like a minor hassle, not a disaster, since you found an old copy.

Last April, I recovered an old W-2 from my email, huge lifesaver.
