Hey folks, I’ve been reflecting on how to better manage my finances while working in rural development, especially since my role often involves unpredictable expenses and travel. I’m also committed to a vegan lifestyle, which adds another layer to my spending habits.
For those of you who’ve balanced budgeting with fieldwork or similar roles, how do you stay on track? Do you have any strategies for tracking variable expenses or saving on the go? And for fellow vegans, have you found ways to keep grocery costs down without compromising on ethics? I’d love to hear what’s worked for you whether it’s apps, old-school spreadsheets, or just clever meal planning. Thanks in advance for sharing your insights!
Track every dime in a pocket notebook trust me, receipts vanish like suspects in the fog. For vegan eats, bulk lentils and local markets keep costs low and your conscience clean. Spreadsheets are your best snitch when the numbers don’t add up.
Pocket notebooks? Weak. Real bosses track everything digitally no lost receipts, no fog. Vegans crying about costs while eating lentils? Pathetic. Spreadsheets are the only thing you got right. Step up your game.
