Sitemap - 2024 - The Ladybird Purse • Opening up about money
"The easiest money you'll ever come by is the money you never spend in the first place."
“More income would be nice, but not as nice as not having to go to work.”
"Sometimes instead of choosing one or the other we should just give ourselves BOTH."
"I still want to write books, sitting in a beach hut in Southwold, one day…"
"My plan [has] always been to create a life I don’t want to retire from."
Why is it so hard to spend money on the thing you saved it for?
"My relationship with money is sort of like a very nervous rider approaching a very skittish horse."
"I like going to work now, which is very novel."
“I am the boss of money, it’s not the boss of me.”
“I never take money for granted.”
"I have more confidence in having bigger dreams now."
Can we talk about periods and money management?
“Once you get on the underpaid treadmill, it’s very hard to get off.”
"It's hard to be financially stable when you don't feel mentally stable."
Have you freshened your wants?
"I am earning more money than I expected to, and I feel emotional about it."
"We are merely poor rather than destitute and I am grateful for that difference."
