The F Word- Finances [PT 3]

In this episode of 'Beyond the Bombshell,' Michelle invites Josh back to the conversation and dives into the third part of their finance series, emphasizing managing personal finances effectively. They discuss the importance of being conscious about spending, particularly focusing on grocery expenses, and how making small adjustments can lead to significant savings. The co-hosts share their personal journey of reducing their grocery bills by comparing costs and changing their shopping habits, which led to freeing up $620 in a month without compromising on the quality or quantity of food. They also introduce the concept of 'Lid' – Lifestyle Investing in Debt – a tool to help listeners gain a snapshot of their finances and encourage them to be more mindful of their spending habits. The episode concludes with the hosts planning to tackle their fast food expenses next and inviting listeners to join them on their budget-conscious journey.
