As soon as I got my paycheck, transferred some money into the children’s college funds. I’d like them to focus on school without worrying about loans or debt. I’m not obligated to do so, as their dad is supporting them well enough, but I’ll try to regularly add to the pot as I am able. They can use it for braces or whatever when the time comes.
The rest of the money I blew on Sapienmedicine stuff, some fields and the water chargers.
I have a little bit I’m setting aside for retirement.
I’m thankful to have gotten accepted for the full scholarship I mentioned last time, and the course starts next week. I hope it will give me the confidence to pursue making a side hustle out of my hobbies. So I can buy more fields lol.
Effects so far: minimized impulse to shop out of boredom. Always asking myself first if it’s something that deprecates in value over time. There’s a voice that says “Who am I trying to impress?” when wanting to buy unnecessary items. Drawn to investing in things that might be more expensive upfront but will be long-term good value (BIFL = buy it for life), as well as good for the environment.
