I LOVE when I come across new opportunities to make money on the side, especially when the opportunities are good for moms. Uber Eats is just that. It’s Uber, but without all the downsides.
Let me explain…
I spend a lot of time writing, reading, and studying personal finance and yet I still struggle with good ole’ fashioned budgeting. It often feels boring, depressing, and monotonous. I want to be dreaming, creating, and building! Not cutting back, canceling out, and organizing my spending.
But it’s a necessary evil. And the more I’ve fought it, the more I’ve realized how important it is. Luckily, along the way I’ve found different ways to make budgeting easier…and dare I say, enjoyable. So that’s what I’ve got for you today! 5 different ways to make budgeting easier (and maybe even fun!).
Wow. It’s been THREE years of blogging for me at MBAsahm! This is a huge milestone for so many reasons. From the very beginning I promised myself I wouldn’t quit blogging until I had put in at least 3 years and thank God I made myself do that because now I’m sure I’ll never stop.
If you read my blog regularly, you already know that starting MBAsahm was one of the best decisions I ever made. So if you’re considering starting a blog, DO IT. It may not be exactly what you thought – it may be more, it may be less – but I promise you, it will be fulfilling.

If you haven’t heard of RedBubble before, I’m so so so excited to be the one to tell you about it! Especially if you’ve experimented with (and hopefully loved) Zazzle. They’re very similar, only RedBubble is one thousand times easier.
Writing is a fickle thing. Even when you love to do it, you often feel like you have to do it. When you’re inspired and motivated, you can’t type fast enough. But when you hit that writer’s block or have distractions pulling you in different directions, you can waste a ridiculous amount of time just staring at a blank screen.
If you write for a living, that problem can be a really big problem. And not just because you really do have to write. The bigger problem is that if you’re writing for a living, you’ve almost certainly obtained your dream job and you just want to keep it that way!

Third party sites like Hubpages often get a bad rap from bloggers. After all, we’re all taught from the beginning that one of the most important aspects of managing a blog is owning and hosting your own domain.

I’ve been using Hubpages for longer than my blog’s existence and despite my blog’s success, I still head back to Hubpages to regularly publish material. It is an important source of income that supplements what my blog is earning for me.
While the money is obviously important, there are other serious benefits to using Hubpages when you’re a blogger.
