*** This Podcast is NOT financial advice.  It is simply for educational purposes*** Can you relate to this? You're moving along with the budget you created and then boom... back to school hits you with a bunch of extra expenses.   So you get your bearings and get back on track and then, boom.... your kid's birthday comes and it takes you off track again.   In our minds we think of these as emergencies but really, they're just expenses that aren't your typical day-to-day expenses.  There is a tool you can implement to better plan for these things before they happen and in today's episode we're going to talk all about it.   I hope to see you in the MMM Club next month! :)  xo,  Krista----more---- Need some extra support to create a plan?  I’ve got something for you!
