🌟 About Me 🌟

Hey there! I’m Brie, a 44-year-old Mom personal finance enthusiast, and FIRE advocate. After stepping away from strict budgeting for a while, I’m now getting back into it and using the cash envelope system to regain control of my finances. My goal is to retire at 60 with a F.I.R.E number of $1,500,000. I created FIRE Roadmap to FU Money to document my journey, (re)learn as I go, and share what works (and what doesn’t). If you’re resetting your financial habits or just starting out, let’s figure it out together and build that FU money! 💸🔥
