Can I tell you about the night at my kitchen table? The kids were asleep and I was staring at my bank account and I realize every dollar had already somewhere to go. None of it was going towards the life. I felt God was calling me too. I wasn’t stuck because I didn’t have a dream. I was stuck because I didn’t have a cushion so I started something small every dollar I earned landed into a drop account first and then it goes split by percentages into account and one of those is called my freedom fund. It’s not for emergencies it’s for choices. If you felt called to more start here number one open your freedom account to set aside one to 3% every drop three right down your freedom number. That number is what you used to say yes comment rise and I’ll send you my own freedom kit you are loved valued, and you are wanted. .

Housing is usually the biggest line item in your budget.

This shows a max rent guideline based on income to help you still save, invest, and avoid feeling house-poor. If your rent is creeping past these numbers, it doesn’t mean you’re failing, but it does mean your margin is getting tighter.

Use this as a reference, not a rule. The goal is breathing room.
