Sometimes it takes a life crisis to re-evaluate your priorities in life. Since having the year from Hell, I have decided to devote some time and energy into something I feel passionate about -- money, and specifically, a woman's financial life.
I don't care about money for the traditional reasons (having nice houses, car, clothes, "things", etc.); I care about it for security reasons. Money equals independence, and while it can't buy happiness, independence can make you sleep better at night.
We are in a recession right now, so money is the topic du jour for most Americans at the moment. However, I am hoping that this is not just a phase and that we all come away from this time having developed some frugal habits to keep with us into the future.
I'm going to share with you some of the things I do on a day to day basis to keep track of my money, and to ensure that I am on the right track to financial independence.
Best of luck LootLover, looking forward to the tips.
