Family Balance Sheet

SEPTEMBER 20, 2016

Here I was, leaning against his $20,000 truck, while my $15,000 car is sitting in the drive way of our $150,000 house, and through all this our 8 month old son was sleeping in his $400 crib, and I didn’t have $20 bucks of my own money to get gas. We started cooking at home more, a big issue for us was eating out.

My degree is in mechanical engineering, but I’m just starting a transition to nursing – before I got pregnant with my son, I was working as a nursing assistant while my husband finished grad school, and planning to go on to nursing school. days I was there – I only needed to eat out for 2 dinners during the whole trip.

Family Balance Sheet

JULY 9, 2015

Jen and her husband were reeling after their son was diagnosed with a lifetime medical condition that would implode their finances. There are things we had to do that made us look weird: home school, skip eating out as much with family, doing my own hair & nails, getting a wardrobe from the thrift store and forgoing paper towels.
