While the #debtfreecommunity is dominated by women, we have a few men who are chiming in and changing the conversation. Alfred, from Frugal Freddy, is one of those brave men speaking out about money from the husband + father’s perspective.

In this episode, Alfred shared his advice for getting the men in our lives on board with the budget. Plus he shared tips for earning extra money, must-hear advice for beginners, and words of wisdom for balancing a happy marriage with a happy budget.

 
 

IN THIS EPISODE, SAMI + Alfred CHAT ABOUT:

  • Being upfront about debt early in the relationship

  • Why he + his wife paused their debt-free journey

  • How to handle your family and friends not understanding your budgeting journey

  • Advice for some of the biggest challenges we both see with our clients

  • Suggestions for earning some extra money

  • Adapting to the financial changes as a parent

  • Tips for budgeting as a couple

  • Advice for husbands who aren’t on board with budgeting

  • Why I refer to our family as an “empire”

  • Tips for overcoming the challenges at the beginning of your debt-free journey
