Budgets Are Sexy has been lovingly prepared by me, J$, and motivated by YOU - the community! While this blog seems random at times, our main goal here is simple: To keep personal finance fun. And the earlier you start rockin' that money, the better! This stuff isn't just for old people - it's for ALL people. So whether you came to learn about credit cards, 401k, budget planning, retirement, or anything else relating to money, I give you a hearty pat on the back for seeking it out. The more we research, the more we learn baby!

Hey, you just keep doing your thang! It’s workin’ out nicely so far :)
#5 time vs currency is my perpetual quandry. I totally get that time is finite, but I need to be more mindful of every moment…..yet, I’m trying.
It’s hard at times! I think we just have to work on it as time passes and hopefully get better at it ;) I know some weeks I’m REALLY good, and others I work so much I lose out on entire months… all a work in progress.
