  • Hey loves!
    So recently you know I just hit my first goal which was to fully fund my emergency fund and I decided to sit down and explain exactly how I did it! I am a single mom on one income but I'm proving that you don't have to be a high earner in order to reach your financial goals!
    Creating a budget that aligns with my goal is key and building a strategy around it is always number one! Now that I'm debt free do keep in mind this helps tremendously.

    I'm 49 & was never taught money management skills. Now that my sons are adults, I don't have all the responsibilities I used to have. I'm so determined to learn. Currently, my goal is to save $1K in 5 months which is $200 per month. I've obtained a 2nd job to make it happen.

    Your doing better than me. I've saved $7,800.00 in a year. Paying $500.00 a month and sometime more like on my Birthday. At the 3rd of the month, I will be able to add $500.00 into my saving and that will Make $8,300.00. I'm striving to make it to $10,000.00 and it will all be in 100 dollar bills and I also have bill straps to put on it. Even after the $10,000 is achieved, I will continue to save money. I wish I would be able to buy a Four Door Jeep with big tars, but that's a far reaching long term goal!

    We are tackling our last two debts before moving to aggressively saving. We paid off just under $15,000 since the start of year and will be sending our final payment to our only credit card this week then moving to our personal loan which at $27,000 should be taken care of in 6 months or less. It is our big goal for the year and am really happy with the focus and progress so far.
