Today, I’m featured on Abandoned Cubicle with a guest post talking about my financial back story in depth and about how I ended up where I am today.
I first found his blog through listening to his episode on FIRE Drill Podcast back in November and have been hooked ever since. He and I agree that happiness is key, and that shines through his writing.
His blog is now one of my favorites and one I make sure to read every time there’s a new post. I’m honored to be on his site today, and I highly suggest you check out his blog in general.
Have a wonderful Monday! I’ll be back to my more or less regularly scheduled programming here on Friday with my Frugal Five.
I really like that post and your story! Oh my, what a journey – it sounds like you guys have lived pretty interesting lives so far ashy and that it certainly hasn’t been easy! I also too felt that same guilt when I was forced to dip into my emergency fund, but hey, that’s what they’re for – emergencies! Overall it was a great post and I’m glad you shared your story with us!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. And hoping to not have to dip into the emergency fund again for a long long time 😉
I really enjoyed reading your story, you’ve really inspired me to try for a higher savings rate (and maybe even try to write about this on my old semi-abandoned blog).
Thank you! And blogging has been a very rewarding experience for me so far (and the best way to stay accountable!)
Happy Monday, heading over to Cubert’s site to check it out now!
Thanks! It was a fun one to write 🙂
Hi Angela,
Thanks for such super kind words! I’m really glad you came across my blog and found it worthwhile. Your back-story really resonates. And it sure doesn’t hurt that you’re a fine writer and balance your wins with struggles.
Really glad to have a new blogging friend in the PNW. I’d be honored to return the favor if you ever need or want a GP down the road on your fabulous site!
