Family Balance Sheet
SEPTEMBER 2, 2022
For starters, I didn’t donate plasma this month and that is usually my biggest source of extra cash.

In order to achieve this goal, I need to purge 5 or 6 items a day. I didn't really keep track of things that came into my home or things that went out, so I'm going to say I just broke even.
