You're probably feeling like there's a constant struggle between spending your money on things that make life enjoyable, while still saving enough money to prepare for your future. If you're wondering how it's even possible to save money these days without living a monkish existence, I'm going to share the two mindset hacks I used throughout my 20's to save money while still getting to travel, eat out, and generally spend money on things that make life fun and sparkly still. I set some big financial goals for myself during my first 'adult working years', and by the time I was 27 I'd accomplished most of them including buying my first home, working for myself, creating a 12 month emergency fund (so I could keep working for myself!), and creating a healthy retirement investment portfolio in my RRSP and TFSA accounts. I earned a fairly normal salary as a wedding photographer during these years, and I still enjoyed going out and doing fun things during this time in my life instead of living a hermit-like existence in my parents' basement just to save money. When I look back on these years, my financial success came down to two financial mindset practices I used to get my financial ducks in a row. Want to learn how?
