As someone who's both self employed as well as beyond curious about how people organize/manage/approach their money, I loved this piece.
You referenced not having retirement accounts, and I know I've seen you (admirably!) write about the ethics of investing etc before, but I'd love to read more about your decision and approach to all of this. (I say this as someone also without retirement accounts but lots of shame-ish and fear-based feelings about not having them.) I have bought your book (just haven't read it yet!) so feel free to point me that direction, too!
Thank you! I do talk about investing in the book, but not so much about my personal experience and choices. That sounds like a great topic for an essay. (I've probably been avoiding it because I don't want to be yelled at — lots of shame/fear to overcome myself!)

Oh, Dana, I get that. Take care of yourself, but know that if/when you do write it, you'll be greeted with kindness and gratitude here from me. 💝
Love the money map idea, gonna have a look at that now. Thanks Dana 😊
I hope it’s useful!
