Being in your twenties means so many exciting adventures to take, and so many fun milestones to meet in your life. But all of that also comes with needing money to fulfill said milestones and adventures…not so fun now is it. 

Moving out three years ago, going through post-secondary school, holding a few full-time jobs and now entering a new phase of life (I recently got engaged!), a lot of budgeting has come into play. 

It’s definitely not east to balance wanting to have fun in your twenties with trying to prepare yourself for the future, but over the years I’ve picked up some habits that really help with managing money (especially when you don’t have a lot of it!).
