If you haven’t heard from me in a few weeks, you never will. Send me a budget and I will consider responding. I am also adopting a new policy of name&shame, for those of you that don’t actually bother to do any work and just skim my email. Really? A cursory glance at my contactContinue reading “Dear Advertiser”

2019 wrap up + 2020 goals
As we’re about to hit the second month of 2020, I suppose it’s time I review my 2019 goals! I didn’t set many goals for 2019, my singular goal was to increase my passive income and networth. At the end of 2018 this is how things looked: As you can see, at $273 a monthContinue reading “2019 wrap up + 2020 goals”
Figuring out what my FI/RE number is supposed to be. (Sooner-Rather-Than-Later-Retirement, Part 4)
I guess this thang is turning into a series much like my previous charting of debt payoff… hmmm!) I’ve been reading reddits like r/financialindependence for quite some time, I mean HELLO, I’m a PF blogger.. gotta keep up with those trends! With all my recent talk about making changes in my life over the pastContinue reading “Figuring out what my FI/RE number is supposed to be. (Sooner-Rather-Than-Later-Retirement, Part 4)”
A realistic budget for the future. (Sooner-Rather-Than-Later-Retirement, Part 3).
Hello world! Well, last year I barely wrote a thing and now it’s only been one hot minute since my last post and I may as well keep on truckin’… :). Today I am trying to figure out how to create a realistic monthly budget to stick to that comes to less than $1,000 perContinue reading “A realistic budget for the future.

Sooner-Rather-Than-Later-Retirement, Part 2.
Something I like to do when I get nervous is count my marbles. Looking at the numbers and looking at my savings gives me reassurance that won’t be broke like I was once and that I have some breathing room to be JUST FINE regardless of what curve balls I come across in life. I’mContinue reading “Sooner-Rather-Than-Later-Retirement, Part 2.”
Portfolio gains!
Nothing exciting here, just topping off my RRSP for the end of year deadline! Which tipped my monthly dividend + interest income over $300 each month. Woohoo! :D:D:D:D via GIPHY It’s only a couple of years ago that $100/month of passive income was a goal I had had for a loooooooong time, I set itContinue reading “Portfolio gains!”
2018 wrap-up and 2019 goals!
My gosh you guys, I wrote a quick little post in December on how my 2018 went. It’s time I do an actual full update and set some new goals! I didn’t update a whole lot through 2018 as I was much too busy being my workaholic self to bother with writing nonsense on theContinue reading “2018 wrap-up and 2019 goals!”
Planning for Sooner-Rather-Than-Later-Retirement
I don’t write regularly enough for there to be a clear pattern in how my thoughts evolve on a given subject matter over time. Recent musings have led me to consider however that perhaps I would enjoy everything in life a little more if I were to work part-time, rather than full-time. I don’t seemContinue reading “Planning for Sooner-Rather-Than-Later-Retirement”
Updates and plans
My last post was made January 22, in Thoughts on how to move forward I talked about a long of things. Personal, health, work, about shifting the focus of my financial planning from just getting my shit together to planning for a different future. I thought I had written here after but… figments of the imaginationContinue reading “Updates and plans”
A year on Lending Loop!
I am rewriting this post because I already wrote it and it disappeared into the bowels of the internets. So. 🙂 I opened an account with Lending Loop in December 2016 and made my first deposit on December 28th. I LOVE the idea of Lending Loop and so far I LOVE the execution of LendingContinue reading “A year on Lending Loop!”
