Family Balance Sheet

FEBRUARY 18, 2014

After reading the book, it became my mission to emulate Susan’s success (and sparked the theme for this blog). I read Millionaire Women Next Door around the same time that I became a mother and left the full-time work force to stay at home with our new baby. No surprise there; I write a blog about family finances.

Saving Everyday

NOVEMBER 20, 2019

As you can see in the photo below, my mom is wearing a WINTER coat – in Florida! During this monsoon of a rainstorm, I was working “platform”, which meant I stood on the train platform to communicate with the conductor and engineer as they approached the station, interact with guests, and made sure no one crossed the safety lines.

The Frugal Girl

NOVEMBER 13, 2023

The Frugal Girl is one of the few blogs whose URL I have memorized, so I’ve never missed an entry! I’d load up that dishpan with whatever gear and ingredients I needed, and carry it down to the one full kitchen in the entire dorm of 150+ students on the first floor. Oh, I think it’s been nearly 15 years now!
