Looking for suggestions, please be nice 🙏🏻
Hello!
I’m a 34yo female living in central Alberta. I have no debt, and a bit of savings, no dependents (except for my dogs). I feel pretty okay but admittedly don’t know much about finance and what to do with my money haha and I really want to do better, mostly to help relieve my general anxiety about money and life.
I’m an independent contractor and own my own business (tattooing). I make a good living, I put 30% away for taxes, 30% away for savings, and the rest I use for bills and personal expenses.
I’m not a big Spender, but I’m not super frugal either. My main goal is to grow my savings, and be less stressed out during tax season (I put money away for taxes but I still get extremely overwhelmed)
Anyways, I want to be more financially literate and am looking for books, podcasts, YouTube videos, Reddit threads, and advice on how you save and cut costs etc.
I really want to be really financially literate because money stresses me out so much
I’m planning to make an appointment with the bank about where to put my savings, as it is just in a chequing account atm.
Thanks in advance.
