On this week's episode the two Pauls are joined by budgeting expert, Caz Mooney. Caz shares her journey from a busy mum to a budgeting expert with 160k Instagram followers- she talks about losing her job, becoming a stay at home mum and living with a long term struggle with finances. Suddenly having two incomes and that typical ‘lifestyle creep’ led Caz and her husband to overspending and landed them with a very large credit card debt, she talks about how they then they decided to embark on a 'low spend year' for 2019. She chats about getting the kids on board by promising it was only a year and they would make it fun! Caz shares how that went and how her family successfully cleared debt and also chats with the lads about the importance of budgeting, short, medium and long term goal setting and giving saving time and patience. She and Paul M share really helpful tips on how to save money as her journey continues.
Caz's new book Irish budgeting planner: take control of your money and gain peace of mind is out now and she can be found @irishbudgeting on Instagram where she shares lots of helpful and practical tips.
