About Me

I’m Tasha, a 20-something millennial from the sunny state of Queensland, Australia. I was a shopaholic for many years and got myself into more than $16k of consumer debt.

In 2017, I embarked on my debt free journey and thought I would share it all with you along the way.

We've got a house inspection tomorrow so I like to take it as an opportunity to get the house spotless. Spent yesterday and tonight doing bits of this list. House is looking good!
Yesterday I had to use my emergency fund to get a broken tooth fixed 🤕 On Monday night a corner broke off my back molar leaving it sharp and jagged. To fix the tooth cost me $175 after my health fund took care of some it.💳 If this had of happened back when I had debt it most likely would have gone on credit An emergency fund is so important! You never know when something will happen that you'll need money for💰
Energy drinks were always an addiction of mine and I've previously given up and gone back to them. But not this year!
I used to go out for brunch almost every single weekend. The cost of that really adds up! Today I made scrambled eggs with cheese on toast and had it with this fruit and veg juice.
Never give up
*not my baby* For the longest time being a mum has been all I've wanted. Hopefully 2020 can make that happen 🤞
I think 2019 went pretty well. Picked up writing in April and did over 50 projects through copywriting websites 📝 Also 14 articles written by or featuring me. 🤗 + 5,000 of you and just over $22,000 saved 💰
Breakfast earlier today with my mum, sister and nephews for my mum's 50th tomorrow 🍴🍳
Had my car serviced today, did a major service and replacement of some bits and pieces. These larger costs are always easier to deal with when you save ahead of time. I have sinking funds set up where I put money into them each pay to put aside for these larger costs. Makes it so much easier and less stressful.

Savings Goals

Savings
$17,878 / $80,000
3 Month Emergency Fund
$12,000 / $12,000
Investments
$16,954 / $20,000
