Live Simple

Simple living is having less without being deprived. Why would you want to keep up with the Joneses? They are carrying tons of debt and fight about money all the time. Better to have less and actually own it.

The Seventh Week


Into the jars went $160.00 in cash for our variable expenses for the next week:

Transportation: $52.00
Food: $55.00
Entertainment: $20.00
Clothes/Gifts: $10.00
Everything else: $23.00

Added to the cash from last week the jars contain:

Transportation: $129.08
Food: $55.43
Entertainment: $30.27
Clothes/Gifts: $52.38
Everything else: $41.00

Deciding to live on the jars is probably the best financial decision we have ever made.  If only we had done this years ago!  But now when we look back ten years from now we’ll be so grateful that we started now.  You can’t change the past but you can definitely learn from it.  Love the jars!
