How I saved/invested $9,000 in 9 months on $22/hour

I’m not one for filler and fluff to make a long blog. So let’s get right to it.

I moved into my vehicle to do the “Van Life” in June 2023. Van Life to me, is just a sexier term for living out of a vehicle. I used a PT CRUISER until I upgrade to a bigger Vehicle, Ford Escape.

I’ve avoided having to pay a minimum of $16,000 dollars in cost of living. I am so happy about that. I’m finally getting ahead financially and it feels like a massive relief

-$5000 saved (soon to be more in 2 days)

-I’ve invested around $800 in my 401k with Vanguard which is now $1,683 at the moment. Soon to be over $1,700

-I’ve got $2,280 worth of Bitcoin when it’s worth $69K which it is at the moment

Sleeping out of my mini SUV has allowed me to do this while working of course. I’ve been with Fedex Ground full time since around April…. Can’t remember. 

 The sacrifices are 1000% worth it

This is just the beginning. Thanks for reading. If you need some motivation I highly recommend Brian Tracy University
