Site copy aligned to business model (2026-05-13)

Location: Site copy aligned to business model

What was wrong: The homepage, methodology page, and footer said "no ads, no affiliate, no sponsorships, ever" and "no premium tier." The actual business model includes a small number of affiliate relationships (Wealthfront, SoFi, and Empower applications are pending), a Premium tier launching later in 2026 for deeper content, and the option of disclosed sponsorships in later years if the right partners materialize.

What it now says: The methodology page explains where revenue comes from, what we will and will not accept, and what stays free. The homepage and footer match. Affiliate relationships are disclosed on every page where they appear. The 50 core lessons, the glossary, and the calculators stay free.

Why it was wrong and how it was caught: The original "ever" language was aspirational. The current language is what we can actually keep. We would rather promise something we can hold than something we cannot. Logged here because the principle in differentiator #6 applies to policy corrections too, not only factual errors.
