Saving Everyday

OCTOBER 3, 2023

We usually go with one empty credit card, put everything on that ONE card so it’s easy to keep track of, and try our best not to go over our spending goal. Having our own car means we don’t have to rent one and we can bring a LOT from home. Bring your own snacks. We almost always drive! Pack lunch!

Every year, we split the rent on a beach condo with other family members to make a week away affordable for everyone involved. We also don’t want to come home to a credit card bill. Include breakfasts, lunches, dinners and even snacks in your planning. Our summer destination of choice is the beach. Plan your travel.

Anyway, I packed a little lunch both days this weekend: a peanut butter and honey sandwich on whole wheat bread, plus an apple, red pepper slices, and a granola bar for a snack. Since the main spending I do (besides rent) is in the grocery category, I always try to use the Citi card for that. No HIPAA rules were violated. ?

When they got married, they bought a duplex so that the rent money from the tenant in the upstairs apartment would pay the mortgage.

A family picture with my parents His degree took 5 years, and during those 8 years of essentially being a 1-income couple with kids after 10 years of being a 2-income couple with no kids, they’d racked up $30k in credit card debt because they didn’t adjust their spending to their change in circumstances.
