Once I wasn’t broke anymore

Written By River Nice

Some things I did once I wasn’t broke anymore:

  • Built up emergency savings

  • Paid down debt

  • Took a solo trip to a place I had never been before

  • Supported independent art in my city

  • Had a friend sublet my old place when I moved, since they struggled to be approved for an apartment alone

  • Covered my partner's bills when they were laid off

  • Helped my friend pay for an emergency root canal

It helped me to have clarity about what was important to me, like caring for people I love. It also helped to understand the financial return on investment of paying down debt faster, investing in my own ability to earn more income, and different types of savings vehicles.

If you’re used to being broke but finally aren’t broke anymore, you might benefit from my workshop: Not Broke Anymore !
