16 - Together We Budget: Practical Monthly and Yearly Financial Strategies
In this episode we talk all things budgeting. If you’re like us, maybe it’s one of your favourite topics too. We delve into the essentials for us when it comes to planning our financial goals on a yearly basis to how we stay on track to a strict budget month-to-month.
We also discuss ways we’ve boosted our income with Airbnb, unexpected expenses that have come up for us, and the importance of being open about money and finances as the basis of our relationship.
We talk about what we will do when we get to that magical day when we have extra money floating around and how much we value having a few people we can have open discussions about these more taboo things (like money) with.
Listen and let us know in the comments if you love budgeting too! Or are we just actually crazy? Tell us all your best tips we need them.
