Family Balance Sheet

APRIL 11, 2020

We have an earth berm home, the back wall is built into the hill with the other three sides of the one story ranch open. Good thing we have that emergency fund because this won’t be cheap to fix.

Family Balance Sheet

JANUARY 26, 2016

I have made a pact with myself that if I don’t already own something that I need, I will either: make do with what I have, find said item at a thrift store, borrow, or forget about it. Home Projects. We have some home projects that we need to do and we have already set aside the funds. Restaurants.

I want to challenge myself to rethink our purchases by taking advantage of more cost effective solutions, like borrowing, buying second hand, or just making do with what we already have. Save a starter Home Emergency Fund. It’s not quite 3-6 months of expenses, but will do until we get to #6.
