Hello, Amazing people!
I love all things personal finance and budget related. I have read extensively on the subject for quite a few years since first starting to budget. As much as I love budgeting and reading all about other people’s journeys with money, the most frustrating thing was not getting specifics. Not having specific numbers but only percentages or vague numbers to go off of. Or for the few that actually posted numbers, they were way higher than the income we were working with. My goal with this blog is to bring you real, raw numbers and as many specifics as I can so you can see what we do and how we do it.
Without further ado, lets get into the numbers!
