I can remember quite a few years in college and grad school when my part-time jobs juuuuust barely covered my expenses (and sometimes not even that!) Certainly, we’ll never be able to beat Walmart prices but our quality isn’t Walmart level either so that makes sense!

Now-I’m a single parent who works part-time, cares for my elder mother, homeschools & runs a farm. Living in NW Arkansas is Walmart headquarters land. Those skills/needs became vital in my marriage as the spouse was chronically ill with astronomical medical bills & expensive tastes. This means funds are tight.

He wants to retire early so he can do more woodworking, electronic fixing, and maybe work at a winery or brewery part-time. I started simply doing free Youtube classes with a Walmart mat. Our dog I don’t plan to fully retire, either. I haven’t decided yet. What’s one thing you splurge on? I guess automatic cars LOL.

Our mom stayed home to raise us kids; she went to work part-time in the local school system after both my brother and I were in school. My dad was a blue-collar worker – a machine operator on the railroad who sometimes got laid off for periods of time in the winter. We saved $105.00 on one campground alone last year.

Financial independence is defined by me as ‘not having to work for a living full time’ You don’t have to be a millionaire to have some financial independence. Savings plus part time work could be enough if your ‘needs’ and ‘wants’ are held in check.
