Howdy! After the success of last week's discussion thread, I figured we should keep going. Feel free to comment below with anything and everything money related that is better suited to a conversation or a quick question and answer than a full post. Some ideas include:

  • Journaling about an ongoing job search
  • Asking for ideas about how to manage an emergency fund
  • Logging recent stock trades
  • Talking about the impact of inflation on your budget
  • Your plans for maximizing the rewards on a credit card

Again, those are just suggestions, if there’s really anything you’d like to talk about related to finance in your life, feel free to put it here.

Thinking of signing my mom and I up for a free debt counseling program and trying to reduce the amount we pay each much. I'm not sure how much it'll help, but I figure if I get this done out of the way quickly, any damage to our credit might be recovered by the time we have to move.

Job searching still hasn't been going well. My first ever job interview got rescheduled for Thursday and I feel like I might be getting too burnt out to do it. It was like all my energy was placed into getting ready for it, and now I'm just tired.

On the bright side, I'm getting a not-zero sum of money in the form of government refunds. Might be able to get some glasses and get a week of something like Meals on Wheels so that we can relax for the first time in months, and still have enough to start up a savings fund.
