One year later... still true. Prime Day is now marketing itself as the largest online shopping day of the year. Do yourself a favor and don’t go looking for something to spend money on. You save 100% by not buying anything. Also the deals aren’t that great- I promise you. They’ll be the same or better on Black Friday or at Christmas.... there will always be another sale. .

I can’t count how many people told me to get rid of Rory to save money when I was getting out of debt. It honestly made me livid. First, pets are family. They are not disposable. It’s a commitment you make when you get them and unless it’s a matter of you eating or them, I would never telll someone to get rid of their pet. But second, pet care does not have to be expensive! There are a ton of ways to save hundreds and even thousands of dollars on your pet each year, without sacrificing quality of life. I go over food, vet, grooming, toys and more in today’s new video - link in bio. What is your favorite personality trait your dog has? Rory throws a small tantrum whenever someone won’t share a blanket with her. I never get sick of it.

I’M DEBT FREEEEEEE!!!!!! $84,000 in 30 months! What a journey it has been! Most of you know that I have been aggressively paying off my student loans for the last two and a half years and now I am done! I can’t thank everyone around me enough who thought I was crazy but supported me anyways! This has been a huge goal for me and have learned so much through the process. Big shout out to @daveramsey for the plan. My brother-in-law gave me his book for Christmas in 2015. I spent all of 2016 reading the book and listening to his podcast every day while sitting at my desk at Humana. On January 1, 2017 I made the decision, as a 24-year-old, that the biggest blessing I could give my future spouse, and my future kids, was to get rid of the heaviest burden in my life. This burden is what led me to Jesus along with years of prayers from my sister and I feel so humbled to accomplish a goal that seemed so crazy and far out. With a new job in 2017 that allowed me attack this debt with full force, I was on fire to get it done. It took small disciplines like not buying subscriptions such as Netflix, Pandora, or Spotify (which was tough because I was in my car about 6 hours a day for work… aka lots and lots of commercials to keep me reminded of my goal) and some bigger disciplines that seemed normal for people at my stage in life such as buying a house (although this one I was very tempted to do!) God protected me and blessed me along the way and today I can confidently say that with His help, this has been the biggest accomplishment of my life! It has allowed me to move away from that job and begin full time photography! On to bigger and better goals! Too excited for the future!

I was listening to @theminimalists podcast a few days ago and I LOVED the metaphor they used for The Jonses.⠀
.⠀
Both speakers were discussing how they love their simple apartments.⠀
.⠀
“It’s like going to a museum. You can enjoy the paintings but you don’t need to buy them.”⠀
.⠀
You can tell your friend you love their big, beautiful home and not want one for yourself.⠀
.⠀
Admire that Instagrammer’s style without HAVING TO HAVE IT for yourself. ♀️⠀
.⠀
So simple, right?⠀
.⠀
PS Tom and I were visiting our old neighbors. The ones next to our “big house.” We looked at our old house and said, “It really is beautiful.” “But I don’t want it.” ❤️⠀

A few weeks ago, I met up with a close friend and discovered that she traded in her paid off car to finance a new car because she recently received a new job with a huge promotion and she deserved it. Been there done that and have the $600/month car payment to prove it. Well, I responded by saying that I was currently saving up to purchase a used Prius in cash and planning to sell my BMW X1. She told me that I could not go from a BMW to a Prius. Ummm, why not!?! Following society norms is what got me in the financial mess I am currently in, and in order to reach financial independence, I have to go against what society deems as right.

Not everyone is going to agree with your plans to be debt free. Many will laugh and make fun of you by calling you cheap, frugal, etc. Few will ask how you did it. In the end, you will be the one enjoying a debt free life and building wealth while others around you continue to struggle. Do not give up or let other deter you from your dreams.
