Editors Note: I wrote this days after saying goodbye to Patrick as a way for me to process, cope, and rationalize what happened. It has not been proofread, and there are probably still typos. It just hurts to read through this again, so I hope you’ll overlook that. When I was 19, I found an ad in a newspaper. Someone… Read More
Not gonna lie- I’m irritated. I’ve been seeing lot of personal finance messages that tells us to: Live a little Buy the daily latte it won’t make a difference Don’t give up eating out- it won’t move the needle The message is empowering for some and truly detrimental for others. Where the “treat yo’ self” message goes wrong is that… Read More
WHITNEY’S NOTE: This is a guest post from my pal Sarah Wilson, Budget Girl. Not only is Sarah a total badass who paid off $33,000 within 3 years, she did this on a $26,000/year salary as a reporter. She’s also a wildly popular YouTuber AND dog lover. As many of you know, I have a 12 year old poodle/bichon named… Read More
Editors Note: This post is by Lindsay Nichols. I LOVED learning her tips and tricks for saving on back to school. I have a love/hate relationship with the month of August.

*You’re going to want to bookmark this and refer to it again later. It’s by far the most detailed and comprehensive free guide I’ve ever seen on flipping furniture. I love testing side hustles.

Hey guys, news flash: you can’t spend more money than you make. It seems so simple, doesn’t it? But for some reason, overspending is something that many people struggle with. Has society taught us that we can have whatever we want, even if we can’t afford it? If you spend more money than you make, you’re going to get yourself… Read More

You probably know that there’s a mysterious number tied to your identity called your credit score. I say it’s mysterious because like most people, you probably aren’t sure exactly how it was determined, what it means, if it’s important, or what you can to do make it better (and why you want to)!

Editors Note: Post from the perspective of Lindsay Nichols. There are some great insights and tidbits that we can all learn from. When I was a kid, I didn’t realize that my family was living a frugal lifestyle. My Mama (who raised my sister and I as a single mom) did a really good job of hiding her stress about… Read More
This post is sponsored, but all opinions are my own. My first ever yoga experience was hilarious. For some reason, I decided hot yoga was a good place to begin. I went in with my rolled up purple yoga mat, commitment that I was going to stretch, and meditate (never mind that I could barely touch my toes.) So I… Read More
