Eating at home as much as I can lately đ„Š

1. I donât wait to make âmore moneyâ to take my finances seriously
Good habits donât start with a higher salary.
What you do with a little is exactly what youâll do with more.
2. I donât save âwhatâs leftâ
Saving happens first. If itâs not allocated upfront, it gets spent.
3. I donât let my checking account hold âextraâ money
If all my money sits in one place, it all feels spendable. Anything not needed for bills gets moved out immediately.
4. I donât spend unexpected money automatically
Bonuses, extra income, I save at least 50% before touching the rest. Thatâs how I boost my savings through the year.
5. I donât touch my savings unless itâs planned
Savings arenât a backup spending account.
Theyâre off-limits unless thereâs a real reason.
6. I donât say yes to plans that mess up my finances
Not every dinner, trip, or weekend deserves a yes. Financial peace is more valuable than keeping up.
7. I donât upgrade my lifestyle every time my income grows
More income didnât mean more spending.
It meant faster goals and less pressure.
8. I donât avoid looking at my numbers
Avoidance keeps you stuck. Clarity gives you options and confidence.
9. I donât confuse financial stability with deprivation
I still travel, go out, and enjoy my life.
I just do it intentionally, without guilt or stress.

The importance of splitting your pay đ
Soph was able to buy all of these treats for a friend going through a rough time because she had money sitting in her gift account already.
No guilt. No stressing. No âI shouldnât be spending thisâ. Just money that was already set aside for moments like this.
We talk a lot about how to split your pay (and set up accounts like this) inside IOU, a course weâve developed with BNZ to make money feel way less overwhelming.
Comment IOU and weâll DM you the link to learn more. đ
Learning how to be frugal has helped me pay off $30k of debt
True savers know the experience.
$14 for a fast food lunch?? Nah.
$4.34 for a healthy lunch made at home?? Yes please.

Okay itâs funny but not đâ ïž
going to dinner is my love language đ€·đ»ââïž
we are on our debt-free journey and going to extremes to become debt-free in the next few months, but adding in dinner to our budgeting is a mustâŠ. It doesnât always have to be extravagant, but we are totally budgeting for it.

Splitting the bill is not always the best thing to do in a business atmosphere.
Did I come on here to whine about how expensive restaurants are? Definitely yes but itâs true! Everyone knows that eating out isnât the best financial choice but it is seriously costly nowadays.
By the time you add Clark County sales tax (8.375%) and the tip screen they flip around at checkout, that âcheapâ meal gets expensive fast. A $15 takeout meal with tax and a 15% tip lands around $18.51. A $19 meal with tax and a 20% tip lands around $24.39. ïżŒ
Iâm not saying never eat out - I still do. But if âIâm busyâ is the reason every time, meal prep or even a meal prep service can save real money.
Comment or DM me and Iâll break down exactly how I shop to keep meal costs low.
