  • @hazeldreams you can do it, even those who don't make it by this Christmas are setting themselves up for a much brighter new year.

    @welshspendthrift yes i assign every pound and it has a job. I have an app called spending tracker where we ensure every pound has a job. The pennies mount up. Id say that and cash stuffing has helped me more than any other approach. Theres something about Dave Ramsey that made sense to me for steps 1 to 3 especially. Im also throwing change in an empty 5 litre water bottle i only have a few pounds but hope i can do better in 2023.

    Thank you for celebrating with me x

    Dave Ramsey and YNAB are what’s working for me. I’ve been Dave-ish and YNAB-ish since 2015, but now I’m on a mission!!
