Discovering More Money and More Happy with Sarah Von Bargen

This is the third week of May’s “Finding What Fits, and I’m thrilled to have Sarah von Bargen joining me today! The theme for May is “Finding what Fits;” where we’re taking a look at how to find what feels right for you in career, money, and life. You may know Sarah from her inspiring “Yes and Yes” blog; and what you may not know is that she’s recently launched a “More Money More Happy” bootcamp, where she shares how to create a relationship with money that leads to well, more money, and more happiness. She shows you how to find a reliable bitcoin system review before you invest, how to get a business idea off the ground and maybe which are the best areas to invest in, ways you can be more frugal, which online gambling sites are the best (click here to find out more) and much more! This episode is all about discovering more money and more happy, right now.

Sarah shares all about how her blog, Yes and Yes became popular, and how she found her way into what fits, as far as a career in blogging. Initially, she created her blog to fill a gap in what she saw was missing in the blogosphere: something with a bit of everything, and a site that was smart and funny.

Some of what she’s shared about on her blog is about her travel and her life, which she has did on a modest income. To some outsiders, it seemed that she must have had a trust fund, or other income, but Sarah was covering her expenses based on her own understanding of saving and making intentional choices with her money. She realised that her philosophy on finances was different than that of many people, and recently began sharing this on her blog. To live a lifestyle similar lifestyle to Sarah, some invest their money on the stock market, buying shares like the Taylor Wimpey shares. Investing in stocks allows people to earn a decent income as well as travel at the same time as trading can be done from anywhere. Whether at home, in an airport, or even a hotel room, it’s a pretty easy way to make money!

What I loved about this interview with Sarah was her stating that “we all think that what we do is normal, and we don’t think that it’s interesting, or special, or noteworthy.” She also talks about keeping things simple. When trying to make more money for yourself, it is so important to keep things simple. Otherwise, it can all get too complicated and people could start losing money. There are so many ways of making money these days, so people should be able to find a method that works for them. For example, one of Sarah’s friends uses this xe88 download to make herself some money. That online casino application allows people to make themselves quite a significant amount of money if they play their cards right. Perhaps more people should consider looking into that method.

However you choose to do it, keep things simple. The truth of the matter is that oftentimes, the things that we think are easy for us are actually the same things that are not easy for everyone else. In simple terms, we are born with what fits for us, and the hard part is uncovering it. For Sarah, it’s in the case of money and blogging, for you it may be something very different. For me it’s podcasting and being a project manager. These things are easy for me, and they fit. Figuring that out, and making my livelihood around them is a way of honoring what fits for me.
