Liz of Frugalwoods talks about why she doesn't micromanage her money Episode 1882: Why We Don't Micromanage Our Money by Liz of Frugal Woods on Establishing a Money Routine The Frugalwoods are ex-urban, rookie homesteaders finding contentment (and a lot of chores) on 66 acres in rural central Vermont along with their two young daughters. They write about a wide range of topics, including their experience as parents, their adventures as novice homesteaders, and the financial decisions that made their life possible. Their philosophy is that managing your money wisely enables you to pursue unusual aspirations and opens up a world of options for how to live your life. Through the application of frugality–coupled with good incomes and judicious financial management–they have created a life that they love living every single day. It’s not a life beholden to consumerism or the drive for material perfection or the incessant clarion call for more. The original post is located here: https://www.frugalwoods.com/2015/11/
