hi! I am Violet, I live in Athens,Greece and I work as a registered nurse.I have been following the envelope system since 2018 and it's the only method that helped me to be debt free, save money and keep sinking funds for future needs.
I managed to pay off all my debt in a year, following Dave Ramsey's advice doing a combination of snowball and avalanche methods.I promised my self that I won't have to go over that stress again.
I am getting paid twice a month and I also have an extra paycheck for working extra hours .I am paid in euros. Every paycheck I unstuff my wallet and start over.The budgeting community is my inspiration.
My goals for this year are to build up my emergency fund, save more for retirement and save for a trip to Iceland for next year with my friends. My dream since I was a kid is to watch the Northern Lights.
