And I started with my emergency fund! When I was And I started with my emergency fund! When I was just saving money for anything and everything, I really didn’t have a reason to keep money in savings. It was EASY to just take money out for something else. Once I focused on saving up for my first emergency fund- $1000- I wanted to see that $1000 in there so badly, I thought twice before withdrawing funds! By focusing on just one goal for my savings at a time, I was much less overwhelmed and felt like I could stick to it 🥳 ✨What helps you to keep money in your savings? Let me know what you do!
For the first time ever, I want to try using cash For the first time ever, I want to try using cash envelopes to stay in better control of my spending 🤔 I’m still a digital girl, though, so I’ll be tracking them in a spreadsheet 😂 I’ve been focusing hard on saving up for my first home, and I wanna keep a better eye on my spending! I dunno about you, but my spending has felt a little out of control this summer. Which is fine- I’m all about enjoying my money!- but I’m super excited to save up for a home 🏡 (I’m 29 and would like to have a down payment before I’m 35) Before I try, I wanna know… Do you use cash envelopes? Why do they work for you? Or if you don’t like them…why not? PS. If you have any recommendations for a cash envelope seller, tag them below- I’d love to support them ❤️
