We’re back from our Spring Break trip to DC and NYC and I’m happy to report back that it was a great time! I wrote back in October about our planned trip, and I made it a challenge to stay under $6k for the whole thing. Did it happen? Hang...

Thank you, Susan, for recommending I read the Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel when I requested book recommendations back in January. I fully appreciate the knowledge gained even though it is an older book. It is evidently pretty popular around here as I got on the wait list for...

As the kids began to file their taxes, I noticed that my daughter had NOT been removed from my health insurance policy when it renewed in January. So last week I made the call to clear that up. As I explained to them that I had updated my application in...

We’re now in Month 2 of our financial experiment where I give my 13-year-old girls $100/month and they are responsible for buying ALL their own clothes and makeup, plus any “fancy” toiletries (I will continue to buy all their basic necessities).

You guys… I have a new favorite book. Whether you know her from her Invested Development course, her original Dumpster Dog Blog, the many times we’ve quoted her investing know-how here on Bitches Get Riches Dot Com, or her activism against the genocide in Gaza, our dear friend and Amanda...

I’ve written a lot about my student loans over time as a blogger here. At this point, the student loans are my last remaining debt (besides a mortgage), and this is the year when they’ll officially be GONE! I cannot wait! That said, I continue to find the process completely...

I’m now 99.9% sure that I have updated all my auto-pays both personally and professionally to use either my personal or business debit card or my Apple Cash account (secondary to that is my personal debit.) I’ve worked up a system this past month that feels both manageable and secure...

The call outs on my post about my kids beginning to migrate were SPOT ON! And as I’ve heard about their plans, I’ve had the same fears. Can I set better boundaries? Be consistent in saying NO or rather, not offering financial help? And essentially reset, the relationship as a...

If you’re angling for a promotion or a new job, the best way to showcase your accomplishments and make a case for your worth is by writing a brag sheet. “Brag sheet?” cry you. “But I am a mindful, demure, and humble team player! How could I ever do anything...

Well, I’m not where I want to be, where I planned to be, but I am further than I was. Current student loan balance (as of 2/23/26) is $15,255.65. Income dropped unexpectedly as one of my clients took an early retirement once he qualified for disability. I’ve gotten no hours...

One started submitting their resume early last year. Two told me at Thanksgiving. One told me at Christmas. Another laid out their plans in mid-February. And, of course, one is already here. Yes, what I’m saying is that my kids have begun a migration to Texas. Beauty has been here...

If you’re one of the wealthy, powerful, litigious people I’m about to cast in a not-so-favorable light, welcome! Congratulations on all your success!
