The Frugal Girl

FEBRUARY 18, 2024

I’m 47, married, and living amongst the cornfields in a college town in the Midwest U.S. As our family and household income grew, my husband and I made it a goal to put more money aside for emergencies, retirement, college, home improvements, etc. I live in a fairly transient town with lots of college students.
