In the links below, you’ll find our monthly and annual FIRE budget updates that reveal our personal finance decisions through our income and expenses. We hope they offer you guidance and inspiration on your FIRE journey.

You’ll also learn from our mistakes, challenges, and tips along the way.
You’ll find all of our posts tagged as Budget Updates in the listing on this page.
Our budget updates before the start of 2022 tended to break down every single monthly expense category. That’s helpful if you’re looking for details about things that tend to repeat for us (utilities, insurance, mortgage, and so on).
