This is my first post on Steemit. I am still trying to learn my way around and figure out how everything works. I figured I would start with a simple introduction of who I am and what I'm about.
Thrifty Livin is the name I choose to use here as it is the name of my website. On my site, and likely here as well, I write articles and given information about how you can live within your means. I know....crazy concept....right? I am not a person who believes that you can coupon and stockpile your way to wealth.
On the contrary, I believe and live the belief that money management and financial responsibility is more about a way of thinking and a way of life rather than saving a few bucks here and there on toilet paper.
In my "real" life, I am a school teacher and an eBay seller. I love to find a weird and unusual item to resale for a profit. My salary pays my bills and my eBay money goes straight into retirement.
I am always looking for ways to make a little extra money so I can build my savings. It is my goal to retire at 50, a mere 9 years away. I have lots of work to do to be able to achieve this goal.
I look forward to offering interesting and informative content for those of you who may be interested in financial matters as well as online reselling tips and tricks.
