The Frugal Girl

FEBRUARY 18, 2024

My family loves watching movies and tv series together, and having regular game nights. They don’t charge admission, so the kids and I have enjoyed many hours just watching the kittens play 12. I reinforced seams, closed up holes, and repaired seriously damaged handles that were almost worn through. A freebie cabinet.

The two professors who watched me said that I did a great a job and that they could tell I’d gone to a bunch of the optional open labs (and that’s true; I did sign up for tons of those). Well, I’ve had this pair since 2017, and the wear is getting beyond my repair capabilities. So… a big WHEW.

Debts still need to be paid, cars will need new parts, homes will need to be repaired, and kids will need braces. But as we worked our way through our Debt Freedom Plan , we watched our debts fall and our net worth climb. What’s on the horizon that we need to save for – car repair, household repair?

It’s fun to watch your account grow, but at the same time, if you have different goals for the money, having everything in one account can be problematic, since you aren’t able to identify which money is earmarked for a specific goal. One of the mistakes that we often make when saving is putting everything into one account.
