GoWithLess's video: Patience Allowed Us to Save Money - Our Nomadic FIRE Life Financial Independence Retire Early

Two weeks ago, we shared our growing concern about our wide-open calendar starting January. We had no idea where we'd "live" and we were getting nervous. You guys offered terrific advice! (If you missed it, here's that video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXwFkK_XD_A&t=1s) We're glad to report that "wait a bit" was what we opted to follow. Thankfully, we just booked 2 fantastic house sits, both outside of Austin, TX. Not only are we relieved to be in one area for 3+ months, but also kicking off 2021 this way will give our budget a huge boost. Whew! Being patient allowed us to save money. Had we booked a paid stay of a few months in Southern CA (as we considered), our 2021 spending would be off to a pricey start. And, we flex that muscle. Maybe we won't be as anxious next time? ***Thanks to points and miles earned from credit cards, we save lots of money on travel.

Most surprising isn't what we're missing...it's how wonderful and rich our life is with our lower spending. We like to share what we're doing and learning here on our channel. Please check out our other videos. They cover house sitting, award travel/travel hacking, and our early retirement/FIRE (financially independent, retired early). And, of course, travel!
