What is a #Budgetarian?
Hi to all you soon-to-be Budgetarians! As an entrepreneur, I may have picked up a thing or two when it comes to financial literacy, and although I'm still learning as I go, I want to be able to help in any way I can by imparting these learnings to others. While I may not be a financial guru or a theoretical and conventional expert on the subject matter, I've learned that my personal practices and habits work for me and I'm hoping they'll be a big help to you too.
Welcome to the first step to a more financially literate, and more importantly, a financially stable you!
