One of the best ways to reach financial success and freedom is to work your way to the top of your career and really make the big bucks; among other things, of course. We would be remiss if we did not mention that success and financial freedom are not found by making more money in […] More
It’s Friday, Friday, Friday…I know that song is just awful; but it really is catchy, isn’t it? I don’t know about you, but by the time Thursday rolls around, I’m done with weekdays and my husband being at work all day long and kids and pants and responsibilities. Of course, I’m a mom so I’m […] More
So many things in life are underrated; some more importantly than others, and some more important to others than to me or you. For one, I think that a firm bedtime and nightly routine is highly underrated for many kids and their parents. It is, simply put, the most important thing we do all day […] More
This is on my mind right now; staying sane. It’s the middle of summer vacation for our kids, and I’m dying a little on the inside each and every day. Oh, yes, I love my kids. I adore them. I’d move Heaven and Earth for these four gorgeous little miracles, but sometimes (every 30 to […] More
Sometimes things just sit with me for a while, and I think about them quite often. My husband is going to be working solely from home in a few weeks, which is something we have been working toward for a while. His office now is almost an hour from home, and most of what he […] More

Growing up we are always asked what we want to be when we grow up. I remember being asked this question as long as I can remember, and I always said the same thing, “President.” I assumed that meant of the USA, but it seems that job is thankless and I’d likely end up becoming […] More
Mimosas, a pool boy and endless hours of fun in the sun and freedom making working from home so worth it to me. Wait, no; that’s not right. I can’t do any of those things if I don’t actually get my work done. Oh, and those big checks I get seem super amazing, but they […] More
I don’t know about you, but I love to see others succeed. I love the feeling of watching as they achieve their goals, make it happen and really experience the kind of power and control that comes with really being successful. I love that my social media newsfeeds are filled with success stories. While some […] More
I do not miss being in an office working for someone else. I just don’t; I like working from home. I like not having people interrupting me all day long (save for my 2-year-old twins, but they’re cute so it’s not so bad). I’m not much of a people person unless you’re someone I consider […] More
Being paid $58,000 a year may seem like a sweet salary to those starting out in the working world; however, it only stretches so far in today’s economy, even if you are a single person with no dependents. Many workers who could go after a higher salary, say 80K, stay stagnant for several reasons, most […] More
For many, finding a new job is a necessity. For others, it’s something they’d like to do but are not in a big rush since they already have gainful employment and a good job.
