Planning for the Future

By 37 Comments

Plan­ning for the hazy “some­day” of the future is tough. It’s like peer­ing into the mists of a fog­gy morn­ing. Shapes are indis­tinct and intim­i­dat­ing until you get close enough to rec­og­nize the giant shad­ow is an oak tree. I’m peer­ing into the fog­gy future, but I can’t make out what those loom­ing shapes are. Peo­ple keep […]

My future has more ques­tion marks than the Rid­dler’s suit. Today’s post is a top­ic near and dear to my heart: dat­ing. More specif­i­cal­ly, dat­ing while try­ing for Finan­cial Inde­pen­dence. As a sin­gle 25-year-old female, the first ques­tion peo­ple ask after learn­ing about my FI plans is usu­al­ly some­thing along the lines of “What hap­pens when you […]
