Family Balance Sheet

APRIL 30, 2015

In 2015 I’m challenging myself to rethink purchases by taking advantage of more cost effective solutions like borrowing, buying second hand, or just making do with what we already have. We’re amazed at how much used high mileage SUVs can still be, but a new vehicle is completely out of the question.

In 2015, the monthly challenge will be Choose Thrift First. So for 2015, I want to challenge myself and you, to rethink our purchases by taking advantage of more cost effective solutions, like borrowing, buying second hand, or just making do with what we already have. Can I find what I need at a second hand or thrift store?

The last loan was his student loan and I wanted him to make that final payment. I feel like I made a lot of trips to the thrift store to donate our stuff, but my house will tell you otherwise. That book has changed my outlook on reusing, recycling, making do, and rethinking one use products. Moving on to 2020!
