Graphic picture ALERT!! What the hell did I do? Well I’ll tell you. I managed to fall off of a ladder and I landed on my feet! Unfortunately, my foot wasn’t having any of my nonsense that day and I managed to dislocate my heel and break my talus bone. • • • The doctors said that what I did was pretty difficult and they also told me that I would need surgery and two pins on either side of my Achilles’ tendon to pull the bone back together. An accident turned into an unplanned surgery and a 3 night hospital stay, BUT there is good in this story. • • • Since we have been debt free we have also managed to save up our 3-6 months of expenses as well. My family and I are going to be fine. It left me focused on recovery rather than on finances. This is why we have worked so hard to get to this place, because who would have predicted something like this? Life happens and we are left to pick up the pieces, but because we sacrificed a small amount upfront it’s really paying dividends on the back end. • • • Don’t wait until an unfortunate event strikes your family. Start setting yourself up for success and comfort today. No one knows what the future may hold. I will say that I am extremely thankful that my situation was not worse, and that I have awesome folks in my life who have been jumping right in to help. It will be a long 3 months to recovery, but I am pretty certain once that time comes I will be ready to hit the ground running (maybe walking at first).

The rule of the 72 in the investing world is a simple calculation on how long it will take you to double your investment. I’m starting to learn how to invest and grow my money. I’m really trying to set myself and my family up for success. Through deliberate effort and constant learning, I want to learn how to manage my investments and grow my money faster and more efficiently than just giving it to someone to do it for me. What have you been working on this weekend? Month? Year?

2 months ago it was the other way around. We were jamming away at debt putting over 50% of our net pay to people who’s only care is if they got their monthly payment on time. Two months later and here we are working really hard on keeping our monthly expenses low, simplifying our lifestyle, and making huge progress on our 2019 goals. I won’t speak for everyone involved, but I think we may even have had some fun getting to this point too 😁😁.

Whenever we learn something new, we go through these 4 stages. We work through them until one day we can do what we set out to learn in our sleep. We don’t even have to think about it. Like driving a car or riding a bike. Don’t be afraid of the work it takes to get to level 4.

Who’s working the weekend to build that life? What do you do for that extra cash?

Maro is the Japanese concept of being thankful in multitudes. Gratitude is essential to being content and having patience. So what are you thankful for? ⬇️ comment below
