ABout me

Hey there! I’m Lilo, and I’m thrilled to have you join me on this incredible journey to financial freedom through my blog. Life threw a few unexpected curveballs my way over the past few years, leading to a bit of a debt rollercoaster totaling a whopping $43,076.89. Yep, you read that right—three credit cards, a bank loan, and a dash of student loans (only $3,800, surprisingly).

It’s a lot, especially when you consider that most of it is on those credit cards. What’s even more mind-boggling is that, despite my fancy Economics degree and all those finance courses, I found myself in this financial pickle. But guess what? That’s all in the past now.

This blog is my personal diary of victories, lessons, and the occasional stumble on the road to financial liberation. I’ll give you all the tea on what worked wonders, what I thought would be a game-changer but fell short, and all the exciting possibilities that lie ahead. Most importantly, I want this space to make it clear that escaping debt is not just a dream—it’s an achievable reality (even though I’m currently in the trenches myself).

Quick heads up: I’m not a financial advisor. Nope, just a fellow person in debt sharing my own experiences and the golden nuggets of wisdom I’m picking up along the way. So buckle up, let’s conquer this debt mountain together, and uncover the secrets to saving some serious cash!
