One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Minimize Expenses

Following Instagram posts can make you feel like other moms are either made of money or have sugar daddies funding their lifestyles. I can assure you. I have neither. There is nobody funneling money into my household except for me. And because I was an economics major and my dad was a banker, I am keenly aware of cash flow, assets and liabilities, and expenditures. Still, sometimes, I forget how expensive life can be. It's not because I lied about having a sugar daddy or have a trust fund.  It is because I am frugal. Indeed, being conscious of expenditures is integrated into my lifestyle.  I know that it is gauche to discuss money and yet, I feel compelled to share some thoughts.

Mega Monday!

Yesterday was April Fool's Day. My Facebook post said, "I hit the Mega Million". If you hadn't figured it out, it was a joke. I was not was not among the fortunate, this time. However, I did hit the lottery.

I grew up New York state and the motto of the Lotto was " all you need is a dollar and a dream". Even though I like nice things I'm a saver so I have a couple of dollars. And I know that I have a dream. Not to sound to hokey, but I have decided to use my talents and resources to bet on Mega Me.
I'll keep you posted on how that goes!
