Too embarassed to tell anyone I know IRL, but am excited for my new future. Been throwing alot of money with small things. PC, alcohol, movies (and im ashamed to say, funko pops). Recently i took the plunge and cut out alcohol in an attempt to get my life together, and i feel like i have a whole new start.

The good thing about small towns is the cost of living can be low compared to a city. Stack your chips, have an investment strategy, and leave on your terms. It’ll be incredibly satisfying to put your future plans into place when the time is right. Just continue to work on you and get that money working for you as well!
