The Frugal Girl
DECEMBER 11, 2023
Today we are meeting a reader who lives in the same region of the U.S. What’s the “why” behind your money-saving efforts? Being frugal allows me to stay at home with our little ones, which was always a goal of mine, and my husband has been very supportive of that. Hello everyone! as me: the Mid-Atlantic. ?

I’m Mary, and it’s a pleasure to participate in Kristen’s Meet a Reader series. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears were shed here, but we both agree that having no mortgage gave us a serious leg up on our retirement savings and other financial goals. Now I wish those dollars had gone into our savings accounts.

Right before the pandemic started, I opened 529 College Savings Accounts for our daughters. My oldest was in eighth grade and one of my goals for 2020 was to start saving consistently for both daughters’ college education. My Upromise strategy will help with our goal. Hello, 2020. 108 Months X $72 = $7,776!

Saving up this chunk of change can take a long period of time, especially if you have a high expense to income ratio, which many people do (especially if you’re paying down debt). .

That includes revolving consumer debts — such as credit card balances — as well as personal, auto, payday and title loan balances. All of your retirement accounts are included as assets in your net worth calculation.
