An estimated 67 million people will have trouble paying their bills due to the fallout from Coronavirus. A lot of us have seen our income drastically cut, or maybe you don’t have ANY income at the moment. It’s important to prioritize our money now and conserve our cash, because in a tough economic cycle we might have more need for it. So the time has come for many of us to tighten our belts and cut some expenses so that our finances can survive the economic hardship that many of us are facing. There are changes that need to happen, but what expenses do we need to look to in order to make a dent in our monthly or annual expenses?

  • Just because you’re watching more TV now than ever, it doesn’t mean you have to be paying for it. Try some free services like the Roku Channel, Sony Crackle, Pluto, and Kanopy. Oh, and that German ‘Stranger Things’ is called Dark (not dark matter).
  • Don’t forget that shopping some services that you’re not used to shopping, like your cell phone carrier could allow you to save $1,000 annually. We’re big fans of Mint Mobile.
  • Joel and I both got our oldest daughters Woom bikes– we’re all doing a lot more biking with our extra time at home!

      You’re welcome! Isn’t it amazing how whatever tends to be in front of us is what dictates what we do?! I’m definitely that way so the best thing for me is to remove those distractions altogether.
