Don't shop as a hobby. Read a book from the library or take a walk. I started a no spend on Jan. 1. I expect $3000 extra savings a year in my high yield savings and 12 lbs. of weight loss. That's only 1/2 lb. a week. Totally do-able. I have enough clothes, home decor, and bought too many groceries in 2024. I have back up household items - I don't need more.

Since that is a misleading term with all the changes that happen, I call it ESSENTIAL SPENDING only for 2025. I'm on Day 10 and it's amazing. A real eye opener.

I just bought a second home (retirement home in 2 years). .selling a property and broke a leg. I am actually in a high spending period and as a super frugal person struggling to spend without guilt on things. Come April 1 I will be debt free paying off a mortgage so I am reminding myself of the end game.

Merry Christmas to you and you family great vlog

Hi Maree. Karen is a lovely person inside and out. However she will be sorely missed . you could have been a famous ballerina but I prefer it if you stayed on here. You get more opportunity to get to know people etc. you and I have the same interest and ideas. It’s so uncanny..see you in the next one and take care Mr and Mrs xx

Love the park. You make such good videos Maree.
