Scrubs & Savings

Scrubs & Savings

Hi! My name is Mia and I’m a 20-year-old nursing student living at home while working part time. I’m currently focusing on investing and saving as much as I can while living at home to set myself up for a financially free and fulfilling life :)

    I love your spreadsheets ! Very cute colors. Always love seeing the whole year vs month to month. If I could just suggest to freeze your first columns so that we can still see the headers when you move to the right (in your goals and spending sections). Keep it up !

    Awesome job on your progress so far this year! I just have an amount I invest automatically every month and try not to look at my brokerage or retirement accounts except 2 to 4 times a year. I find it easier to keep my money invested and I love seeing my net worth jump after a couple months versus every paycheck. I wish I could budget as consistently as you!

    Yes, some people don’t understand because we are surrounded by consumerism and it seems more “normal” to spend frivolously vs save and spend only on necessities. It’s sort of backwards thinking if you think about it.

  • @Merryyy203

    I think that a no spend challenge is about not buying unnecessary stuff. If you need something, like food, shampoo if you (are about to) run out, petrol, etc., you can buy it during the month you are trying to save up. I need to do this again but when travelling I spend way too much. Wanna cook more "at home", take my water bottle with me, if possible not go into shops, I always end up getting something.

    On step 5, just for thought. You could purchase a duplex, or even a triplex and you could probably end up living for free by renting the other unit out which is what I decided to do for first house and it worked out really well!

    I plan on reaching coast fire within the next 11 years. I basically restarted my financial journey and left my 20s with a negative net worth due to a failed relationship. Within the last 26 months I have hit a six figure net worth and will hopefully be able to aggressively save and reach seven figures before I leave my 30s. Once I hit my number I plan on switching to a less stressful job, maybe teaching overseas for a work visa to travel, while living on a pension and allowing my investments to compound. I have a hairbrain idea of buying a sailboat one days and traveling around the world but I'm probably to frugal for it. Goodluck on your journey!

    You do a good job at this already, but don't be afraid to jump on spontaneous travel while you're young. I saw cheap flights to Paris for $260 round trip in March and snatched them up. It was such a wonderful experience that was worth 10x what I spent on the trip. You're only young once.
