Weekly Roundup
Weekly Roundup
So, I have been a little out of pocket this week because I have been helping my friend move from DC to Louisville, KY. I met Anne freshman year of college and she has moved about as much as I have over these last 18 years. I didn't want her to make another move alone, so I took the time out of my schedule to accompany her, and we have been having a blast.This week I was focused on Independence Day and Financial Independence in particular. On Monday, I shared how I first became aware of the phrase "financial freedom" and then on Wednesday I shared what financial freedom looks like to me. Yesterday, I shared my top ten favorite cheap summer activities since I view the "official" start of summer as 4th of July. Since I was not able to read as much as I would like this week, my list is kind of short.
My favorite reads of the week:
- Liz from Budgeting for More shared about her debt payoff journey and it is very similar to the analogy I give to clients who are in the same situation.
- Stefanie at The Broke and Beautiful Life wrote an awesome post about thanking others for their success rather than feeling jealous.
- Michelle at Fit is the New Poor turned 27 this week and had some amazing pearls of wisdom to share from her 27 years.
- DC from Young Adult Money has successfully secured a new job, and he shared some great tips for others looking for jobs.
A big thank you to Josh from CNA Finance and Natalie from The Finance Girl for highlighting my posts this week.
