\u201cBeware of little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship.\u201d<\/strong> This is the topic of today\u2019s episode, where we interview Jenny <\/strong>for a Finance Friday review. Jenny is finishing up her fourth degree<\/strong> and has been working throughout grad school to help her family. Her husband brings in a sizable income, but he wants to <\/strong>retire in 2030<\/strong><\/a> and spend more time with their (future) kids.<\/p>\n Jenny has great control over her fixed expenses<\/a>, but as for her variable expenses\u2026not so much. Her family is consistently teetering between $1,000 a month and $2,400 a month in variable expenses<\/strong>, many of which can be resolved with some simple shopping tweaks (like leaving your credit card at home when you go to the grocery store). Luckily, they\u2019ve invested a fair amount of their take-home pay, have a stellar 401(k) match<\/strong><\/a>, and are about to have dual incomes<\/strong> once Jenny is out of school.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re having trouble keeping a hold on your variable expenses, such as random Amazon shopping<\/strong>, tune in for this episode for advice on exactly what to do.<\/p>\n Click here to listen on Apple Podcasts<\/a>.<\/p>\nListen to the Podcast Here<\/h2>\n
