Thanks so much for the great feedback. My goal was really to refrain from preaching about my way of doing finances and just give an example for others to read about.

It sounds cliche, but I have to remember that it’s called personal finance for a reason. Every single one of us has a different situation that calls for different solutions, and no one can dictate what that is except ourselves.

The biggest things we can contribute are a) transparency about our own situations and b) the solutions we came up with. The more examples we can give people, the bigger the resources we provide. Hopefully, my example will be just right for that one reader and make an impact.
