Saving money is wonderful. But investing for your future is CRUCIAL.

There is no way you can save enough money to sustain you when you retire. You HAVE to invest it.

Compound interest is freaking amazing.

Here's what $500/month invested looks like in...
...10 years: $86,919
...20 years: $274,571
...30 years: $679,699
...40 years: $1,554,339

We had a choice to make.

Choice A: Pay our financial advisor $230,000 in fees over the next 35 years.

Choice B: Manage our own investments and pay $11,000 in fees over the next 35 years.

Guess what we chose.

[Allison Baggerly @inspired_budget]

We hired a financial advisor years ago.
We thought he would "teach" us how to invest.

Guess what...he didn't.

Instead, he charged us a 1% fee which could have cost us over $230,000 by the time we would retire.

How would your relationship with money changed if you no longer hated budgeting?

[Allison Baggerly @inspired_budget]

In a world where 57% of people DREAD the thought of budgeting, I'm over here loving it.

Budgeting means being proactive with my money when in the past I was always reactive.
It allows me to have CHOICES.
My budget gives me FREEDOM.

This past weekend I booked a trip that I’m so excited about (details to come next month).

After booking everything, I sat back and remembered that I’d rather collect EXPERIENCES rather than stuff.

[Allison Baggerly @inspired_budget]

This is exactly what budgeting allows me to do.

I’m no longer weighed down by debt payments.
I’m no longer tempted to buy everything I want.

I’m able to prioritize what I want the MOST! ❤️

Four money lies to STOP believing:

1️⃣ I’ll never get out of debt.
2️⃣ I’ll budget when I have more money.
3️⃣ I don’t need to budget because I make enough money.
4️⃣ Investing is for rich people.

[Allison Baggerly @inspired_budget]

Reminder: You’re not too far gone to get out of debt, save money, or plan for retirement.

@DineroPodcast Having kids forces me to have more of a schedule. I typically do 5 hours of focused work Monday-Thursday and then 2-4 hours focused work on Fridays. My goal for 2023 is to take Fridays completely off!

You can't make an informed decision about HOW you will spend your money if you don't know where your money is going.

[Allison Baggerly @inspired_budget]

@DineroPodcast I’m so sorry you’re having to deal with this. Saying a prayer for you.

Took my kids back to school shopping.

My youngest son wanted to “splurge” on a 75 cent pencil sharpener and a pack of index cards for 99 cents.

My oldest son wanted AirPods.

Which one are you?

Old Me: Spent money unplanned while on vacation. My motto: I'll deal with it later.

New Me: Give myself a spending allowance on vacation. My motto: I'll plan for it in advance.
