Family Balance Sheet

OCTOBER 2, 2022

I’m always looking for ways to save my family money to help us get through current higher food and gas prices and achieve our big financial goals. I planted a small garden this year: 2 tomato plants, 1 cucumber, 1 pepper plant that sadly didn’t make it, and 1 butternut squash. My Frugal Shenanigans!

Our financial goals are still important to us and we want to hit them regardless of the rising prices. Homemade Basil and Walnut Pesto: I made my second batch of homemade pesto from my two garden basil plants. In the grand scheme of college funding, $200 is a drop in the bucket, but I always appreciate free money.

Last summer, I hired someone to completely dismantle and remove my largest box garden and ground garden, and plant grass seed for me at a very reasonable price, especially since it took him just a few hours and it would have taken me an entire weekend. I kept my small box garden which is large enough for just 2 tomato plants and a few herbs.

Not long after college, a friend of mine gave me a list of recommended books. Just as a gardener tends to his or her garden and makes adjustments in water levels, sun exposure, etc when a plant is struggling or when unexpected weather hits; money hobbyists like myself cultivate our finances in much the same way.

If you have a big financial goal, think about how much you pay someone to do something that you are capable of doing yourself. If are fluent in Spanish or were a math major in college, start tutoring. You just need some imagination and a nose for free family fun. Put the money in your emergency fund instead.

If you have a big financial goal, think about how much you pay someone to do something that you are capable of doing yourself. If are fluent in Spanish or were a math major in college, tutor. During vacation season, offer to water plants, pick up mail, open and close the blinds, take care of pets, for a fee…of course.
