We all know someone in our lives who likes to skimp out on paying their fair share of the meal or skimps on putting money towards a present. They don’t own a car to save on forking out the bills but expect you to pick them up and drive them places. They might cry poor but you know they earn just as much as you, if not more.

I have a confession to make about my financial story. I haven’t always been good with money. In fact, I’m more of a collector and spender than minimalist and saver. It’s just who I am.
I realise that it’s a bit ironic that I have a page about being money savvy. For many financial bloggers or finfluencers, they are great with money. It’s who they are, it’s what they do.

With the rising cost of living, it can feel like you are just treading water and can barely survive from week to week. It can feel like you’re drowning under the pressure. It’s awful and a scary place to be.
There are a number of things we can do to reduce the impact and keep our head afloat. There is no quick fix, no easy solution, particularly for those really feeling the pinch right now.

Now more than ever, it’s easier to earn money from the comfort of home. The internet has made things accessible. We can sell physical items and ship them around the world. We can create digital products that someone can buy at the click of a button.
Although saving money is a wonderful tool for becoming financially independent, there is only so much that you can save. Frugality and resourcefulness only get you so far. It can feel restrictive and boring and feel like you’re missing out on things. Your earning potential, however, is unlimited.
Doing the laundry is one of those jobs that never feels done. We always wear clothes so there’s always something
