How to Save Money Like A Minimalist
How to Save Money Like a Minimalist
The minimalist lifestyle often centers itself around possessions. Yet how we spend our money – what we choose to buy and how long we must work to make purchases – matters, as the tenets of minimalism uniquely lend themselves to finances. Indeed, simplified money matters can reduce stress, contribute to savings goals, and increase free time.
On today’s show I speak with Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), author, and fellow minimalist Dawn Starks. Dawn offers both mindset shifts and action-oriented techniques that go beyond automatic bill pay as she inspires you and me to apply minimalist principles to our bank accounts.
