Quotes to ponder:

"We’ve saved a combined $2,688 thus far, and will continue to save $1,032 every single year."

"Realizing that we’re capable of doing things ourselves opened a door for Mr. FW and me to start performing tons of tasks on our own."

"Rather than trying to stretch out the time between haircuts or use coupons or hunt down discounts, we simply removed this expense wholesale."
