The Frugal Girl

I live just outside of Richmond, VA with my husband, 18-year-old twin daughters, and our two dogs. I currently work part-time from home, mostly behind a computer. I came into adulthood struggling to pay my way through college and then struggling to repay student loans on a small salary. As I was paying my way through college.

For 20 or so years I’ve been homeschooling my kids, and am now down to about 1 1/2 (one full-time homeschooler, and one doing College Credit Plus with some support). What’s the “why” behind your money-saving efforts? Clark, our cat, the day after we brought him home from the shelter.

Our daughter is 24 and was adopted from Eastern Europe when she was one week short of a year old. He married the love of his life almost two years ago, so now we have a daughter-in-law, too. I learned from the best, but I believe that a personal finance course should be a requirement for both high school and college graduation.
