Welcome to Fatten The Wallet. As the name might suggest, this blog is anything money 💰related. If you’re looking for ways to make more money, save more money, or get out of debt – then you’ve come to the right place.
Let’s get to know each other!
I’m Kelly and my goal is to never have to set my alarm clock ⏰ again.
I have been side hustling for as long as I can remember and it didn’t stop even when I had a 6-figure full-time job. There is just something satisfying about it.
I thought about quitting my job many times over the years but the unknown can be scary. If the pandemic did not happen, I might still be at the job I hated with a passion. So I guess you can say something good came out of it.
A little About My Blogging Journey
I wanted to start a blog back in 2008, 2011, and again in 2013.
But it wasn’t until 2017 that I came across a personal finance blog that just changed everything for me.
The duo bloggers are your average Joe and Jane that made a comfortable living, but they managed to accumulate over $1mil USD. They quit their jobs to travel the world (now they’re back teaching others how to do it and getting paid handsomely for it).
I was so inspired! That’s exactly what I want to do with my life! More freedom and flexibility.
I read the 3 books recommended by them: The Laptop Millionaire, The 4-Hour Workweek, and F.U. Money
The very next blog I came across was Making Sense of Cents. I was mesmerized reading her income reports. Is this for real?
I honestly never thought about escaping the 9-to-5 before. I thought this was how I was supposed to live my life. These books andMaking Sense of Cents blog opened my eyes to possibilities that I didn’t know existed.
Don’t get me wrong. I’ve always been good with money but I just didn’t know how to make my money work for me. Within 2 weeks of discovering their blogs, I finished the 3 books, started to invest, and started my own blog.
So join me in this journey as we work towards having more time and freedom while making money!
