My husband is finishing his Bachelors degree in Management this year as I continue to pursue my degree in Education. No new clothes, no vacation, no extra anything.

Makeup, nail polish, and clothes. I haven’t worn makeup in about twenty years or so, I can’t remember the last time I painted my nails, and I detest shopping for clothes. But I had to SHOP for clothes. Cloth diapering. Did you ever receive any financial education in school or from your parents?
