Family Balance Sheet

FEBRUARY 2, 2017

Wonder what sets you apart from the people that seem to crush their financial goals? These folks didn’t corner the market on goal success either, instead they just got the task DONE. Their 2017 goal is to boost their savings rate and get their expenses down to $30,000 a year as they work towards financial independence.

How are you doing with the financial goals you made for 2023? Unfortunately, many people abandon their New Year’s goals by mid-January and everything goes downhill from there. The goal of Frugal February is NOT to feel deprived, but rather to find creative ways to get through the month without unnecessary spending.

We have some hefty financial goals this year and this is just one more way for me to squeeze more from our budget. In January, I only ventured into Target because our daughters wanted to go and spend some of their Christmas gift money. How did you do in January? Surprisingly I was able to walk out with nothing for myself.

How did you do with your financial goals in January? We have only one financial goal for 2019 and we made some progress in January. It was a great feeling to make that payment, and to continue the momentum I want to double down on our financial goal. Set a goal for yourself for February.

We have some hefty financial goals this year and this is just one more way for me to squeeze more from our budget. I found a pair of blue jeans for myself for $3 and some clothes for my daughters for $1 a piece. I have found new or gently worn name brand clothing, snow gear, shoes, household stuff, and books.

I’m going to do a no drinking January – not even a glass of wine at dinner – to help my body restore it’s ability to properly function on the important things. Media Detox. I don’t know about you, but it’s around the holidays that I am in front of the television the most.

We have some hefty financial goals this year and this is just one more way for me to squeeze more from our budget. I need spring clothes and I always find the cutest name brand tops at BJ’s at decent low prices. I have found new or gently worn name brand clothing, snow gear, shoes, household stuff, and books.
