Owning a big home is expensive I was really late on writing our 2019 net worth post – I can’t believe that 2019 just flew by. As I’m writing this post, the year 2020 is almost over. It’s been almost 4 years since we moved into our new BIG house. Again, this year I’ll show real numbers instead of just percentages. It’s always been on the back of my mind that I wanted to show actual numbers. When I decided...
Where did the time go? I still can’t believe that 2018 just flew by. As I’m writing this post, it’s already the third week of January. Well, they say as you get older, time goes by faster. I totally agree with that now. Also, it’s been 2 years since we moved into our new house. It’s been that long?!? This year, I’ll do our Net Worth reports a bit differently. I’ll show real numbers instead of just percentages. It’s always...
Tracking your net worth is the most important step you can take to improve your overall finances. If you’ve been doing your budget, tracking your net worth is a step up from that. It gives you an overall picture of your finances. Today, I’m going to talk about net worth tracking in great details and why it matters. I’ve been tracking our net worth since 2013. It started when I seriously looked at our finances and wanted to pursue financial...
From Houses to Home We closed on the new house just a few days after the New Year holiday. We couldn’t wait to move in so we actually moved right after we signed the paper that day 🙂 . The dogs are happy with the new place and are transitioning well. Our chickens seem to enjoy the shady backyard as well. The new house gives us more space. The location is perfect. We now have less commute time to work,...
What a difference a year makes We took a break from baking. Mr. 50 received a job promotion. 50 junior is attending school. We’ve been living debt-free! We reached a positive net worth! And, we put an offer on a new house!?! We terminated our business LLC. The cake side hustle was short-lived. However, we’re a lot happier as a family with the extra time we had together. Doing a side cake business had taught me a great deal about life....
A Year of Setbacks We are no longer partnered with the catering company. 50 junior is still in a daycare (couldn’t get a pre-K spot in school). I withdrew my retirement money! It was almost Halloween last year; Thursday the 29th of October, 2014. I received a strange number on my cell phone. Of course, it was from a stranger. That stranger turned out to be a good Samaritan who called and told me that my dad had been in...
A year of opportunities and adventures Mr. 50 got a job! Our side business started to grow. We barely had time to sleep. Our cake business is now an LLC. We are legal – holy moly…how exciting! We felt like we were on top of the world. Later in the year, we also had a business partnership with a local well-known catering company. Thanks to a locally famous wedding planner who introduced us to the business. We got opportunities to...
It was a year of changes & a new beginning for all of us. We moved almost 900 miles. I started a new career. Mr. 50 was actively looking for a job. 50 junior started daycare. It was a new beginning for all of us. Mr. 50 and I decided to move back to where we were before. A few years back, I accepted a corporate position with my dream company in the Empire State. It was the job of my...
