FI Ideas & My Journey

In 2018 I found myself in a position that is not unique. My savings account balance was too small, my credit card bills were too big, and I didn’t know the first thing about investing or really building wealth.

My experiments with being “financially responsible” ebbed and flowed throughout my 20s, but I finally committed to getting a grasp on my financial life. I craved consistency — consistent spending, consistent savings — to slowly build wealth. I found the motivation and systems to help me be more successful in meeting my money goals.

Here’s a collection of ideas and experiences I’ve found along my journey. I’m not perfect and I’m still a work in progress and not every post will resonate with or be applicable to all people. Nonetheless, I hope you can find something you can use in your own life.
