It’s crazy to think how dependent we are on certain apps due to not knowing what to do with our time. Thanks, Meta, for reminding me to keep learning to be present. #metadown

When I moved back to California 5 years ago, my wife and I shared a car with 2 kids to save money.
I rode a bike to work for 9 months.
I told people I did it for the exercise, but really it was the best financial solution I could come up with at the time.
My boss was embarrassed and asked I not talk about biking to work around clients.
One night, I left my bike at the office and it was stolen. (My dumb mistake)
It wasn’t easy, but we scraped together our emergency savings and reviewed our family budget.
Turns out we had saved enough to put down a decent down payment and qualify for $380/month car payment.
We bought a car that we could afford to fit our growing family.
It was a very proud day for the Tuttles!
I learned valuable lessons on that bike…
How to budget
How to save
How to be disciplined and patient
I wouldn’t trade those experiences on the bike even if I could.
It’s probably why I believe discipline, patience, perseverance and clear goals can do incredible things for my clients as well.
