My money edit is about more than what I want to change; it is about what I’d like to ADD. Financially, I am on track and will continue with what I’ve been doing since my first salary cheque: investing, saving and being prudent with my money. But I am changing what I am adding to my spending plan – intentionally allocating money to live life to its fullest.

For me, this means allocating money to things that bring me joy, like attending Chip Conley’s course, taking my family on memorable experiences, and giving back. I have given this part much thought, and giving back to me translates to helping other, less privileged children earn a quality education.
