Happy Friday! Is it really already the weekend? I’ve been so tired lately, so I am really excited for the chance to catch up on some sleep this weekend. Here are some things I’m loving this week:
1. I got some questions after attending Bar Camp Omaha about what I learned at the finance presentation. I took a ton of notes that I was frantically texting to Josh so here they are.
- You should be saving at least 10% of your income. If you make more than $80,00 you should be saving 25%.
- Prioritize paying off all debts that have an interest rate of 4% or more before working on seriously saving.
- Anything you need within a year, put into savings. Anything you need after a year, invest.
- Use Vanguard to invest.
- Open Mint accounts.
- Read Mr. Money Moustache.
2. I’m obsessed with Harvest Snaps. Like, I open the bag and finish it obsessed. It’s gotten bad, and Josh is now hiding them from me. haha Why can I not eat foods I love in moderation? Thankfully an entire bag of Harvest Snaps is only 350~ish calories. There’s definitely a lot worse things to binge on!
3. Bravo is my guilty pleasure. I’m loving the latest episodes of Don’t be Tardy. Kim and her family are so crazy, but so entertaining!
4. This. I think it’s so scary but so true.
5. My dad is coming to visit this Sunday! I’m so excited. I’ve missed him a lot. I can’t wait to show him around Omaha and just get to spend time with him. I really wish Omaha wasn’t so far away from the East Coast.
Questions of the Day: What are you loving this week? Do you have a guilty pleasure TV show? Is there a food you can just keep eating until the bag is empty?
ANY AND ALL ALL ALL THINGS BRAVO TV !!!!
I love love love Bravo!
Bravo sure knows how to make trashy, addicting reality TV. I love the Housewives! Have fun with your dad this weekend!
Oh man I love the Housewives shows! My favorite is Beverly Hills!
I hope you have an AWESOME time with your dad! And yay for Snapea Crisps! I love those things 🙂 See you tomorrow!!
Time with my dad went by too fast! 🙁
I’m so excited you get to see your dad next weekend!
Those are some great finance tips!! How exciting your dad is visiting!! I wish I lived closer to my dad too!
The Midwest is too far from the East Coast! 🙁
Those snapea crisps are sooo good!! One of my favorite snacks!
Mine too!
I’ve seen those snapea crisps at Costco but I didn’t want to commit to a big bag before trying them….but now I think I will! Have a great weekend Erin!
They’re so good and so worth buying!
Trader Joes makes pea snacks like that which are AMAZING. I got my sister hooked on them! Bravo is totally my guilty pleasure!
Yes! I love those pea snacks! They’re the same as the Harvest Snaps. (At least I think.)
During the summer it’s Big Brother. It’s one of the only “reality” shows I ever watch, but I’ve been watching since season 2. And the thing I can’t keep on hand are Trader Joe’s honey sesame almonds. Kind of lucky for me that we don’t have a TJs anywhere near where I live. I can only get them when I’m on trips out of state basically then I load up LOL
Trader Joes has some of the best snack items!
My guilty pleasure TV show used to be Jersey Shore, haha! Now I just watch far too many game shows. I too love Harvest Snaps!
I love Harvest Snaps! And I too used to watch Jersey Shore all the time!
Most tv makes me feel guilty as I feel like I should be doing something more productive 🙁 Right now I’m addicted to Breaking Bad and the Great British Bake Off though!
Love a bag of good salty popcorn – so delicious but so hard to put down!
Oh man popcorn is my weakness! So good!
guilty pleasure tv? 16 and pregnant and teen mom lol
Those shows are addicting but always make me feel so sad! haha
Aw, enjoy time with Dad! I love when family comes to visit. My fav guilty pleasure tv show is Big Brother. I seriously want to go on a season! Thanks for linking up your favorites, have a wonderful rest of the weekend! 🙂
You should sign up!! One of my friends tried out for the Bachelor! I really hope she makes it.
