January 2021 was a month of extremes in my family’s finances. New furniture wasn’t in the budget for this project, but we sold some other unused furniture in November and we now have enough to pay for the new furniture. I put down half the money and financed the other half. Found Money in January: $1681.

But for our own safety net, we must make our finances a priority. We charted out our course of action to pay off debts and start saving for retirement. It’s taking forever for us to accomplish the step we’re on (paying off our non-mortgage debt), but we keep plugging away. We had a very tough year back in 2007.

We have lived through some challenging months as small business owners, but 2007 was a very tough year for us. By the end of 2007, our business picked up again–thankfully–but not before we practically wiped out our savings with only $2000 left to spare, not enough to get us through one more month.

The Frugal Girl

MARCH 4, 2024

Although my parents never specifically taught me about finances, they lived a frugal life by necessity.
