Saving Everyday

SEPTEMBER 12, 2022

The first thing I do every morning is make coffee, sit down at my desk, open my budget spreadsheet, log into the bank, and enter anything that came out overnight plus what we spent the previous day. Check your hobbies. Hobbies are fun, but they can be very expensive. Even though I cook for a living, it’s also very much a hobby.

That’s why it’s so important to find a profitable hobby. Kinda nice – and you still have 3 in the bank! A lot of people like the luxury of accomplishing things at home without the pressure of thinking about work. It’s no secret that the majority of people dislike employment. Deep down, everybody knows what makes them happy.

Staycations are inexpensive activities that your family can do at home, or locally, that you can all enjoy without running up an expensive vacation tab. You can have just as much fun roasting marshmallows, telling campfire stories and playing outdoors at home as you can at a campground. He wants you to be able to do the same!

What are your hobbies? It started with $40,000 in consumer debt (vehicles, credit cards, small student loan) and then sold our home and eliminated the $140,000 of mortgage debt. While we were paying off our debt, my husband and I both had a realization about our home. Meet the Former Mrs. Jones: Her Debt Free Story.

Clark, our cat, the day after we brought him home from the shelter. My hobbies range from reading to painting, pen-and-ink drawing, cooking/baking, and writing. We are very blessed that my husband earns enough so that I have been able to stay at home and homeschool–so my “why” in saving money is to balance that out.

What are your hobbies? We sold the majority of our possessions and now our family of 5 lives in a two bedroom apartment in the city as opposed to our much, much larger home in the suburbs. We must have the money in the bank for every purchase. Who handles the day-to-day finances in your home or do you work on it equally?

What are your hobbies? Boring I know, but I’m a home body so it works for me. In fact, it wasn’t until I received the foreclosure notice on my home that I finally snapped out of my haze and decided something needed to change and fast. Review bank accounts daily. Like I said previously I want to pay off my home.

What are your hobbies? It was getting to the point that as soon as I got paid, covered my monthly bills and made the required debt repayments my bank account was back to zero again. To this end I spent time trying to figure out *how* I could get my hands on a significant sum of money in a short space of time (without robbing a bank!).

Money Reasons : Home Security! His problem with the card, and mine, is that prepaid cards should be a last resort for people who are unable to get a bank or Credit Union account that has a debit card attached to it. However, once the blog grows beyond a hobby, you need to consider the tax implications.
