September 2022 Financial Update:
September was uneventful really. We just worked and spent time with friends, that’s about it. We also started some of our annual fall traditions such as going to the pumpkin patch, baking cookies, watching Harry Potter, etc. As for our finances, our investments went down some more, our savings account went up by $1,000, andContinue reading “September 2022 Financial Update:”
August 2022 Financial Update:
August is always a crazy month for us because my birthday, our anniversary, and other family & friends have birthdays in August.

July 2022 Financial Update:
In July, we mostly had tons of different appointments, particularly for Brandon’s back, he has a tear.

March 2022 Financial Update:
Hello everyone, hope you’re all doing well! I mainly spent March trying to figure out what direction I want to go with my career.

February 2022 Financial Update:
February was a wild month, with lots of unexpected twists and turns, especially on the global level. This is a finance blog, so I usually don’t get political on here, but I obviously can’t ignore Russia invading Ukraine. I know this is the work of Putin and a few higher up Russian government officials. IContinue reading “February 2022 Financial Update:”
Why I Share Our Finances Online:
I’m writing this for people, especially those who may know me in real life, who wonder why I share our personal finances publicly, or think to themselves something along the lines of, “that’s such an invasion of privacy, I would never do that.” Here are my reasons why: First of all, and the most importantContinue reading “Why I Share Our Finances Online:”
