I just saved over $300 a month!

Part of my minimalism journey involves minimizing my finances. I sat down yesterday and got out all my credit card statements and went through them line by line and analyzed the purchases and made some hard choice. I looked at every company that I was paying an automatic payment to and asked myself do I really need that. I felt that I was getting killed with a 1000 tiny cuts... $6 a month for the NYT, $13.99 YouTube Premium, Spotify AND Apple Music...etc... It seemed that everyday I was getting a $4.99 charge from someone on my card.

I cut just over $300 a month on charges that I can happily live without. I am not even telling my family, let me see if they even notice. It feels great
