Hello!

Today, I have a great article to share from my editor (and my sister-in-law!). Enjoy!

Hi, this is an editor, Ariel! You may have seen me here before talking about taking my side hustle full-time, living in a small house, and real life frugality.

The other day I found myself asking this question in a popular FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) Facebook group:

Anyone else focusing on a zero/low waste lifestyle and merging that principal with FI?

I asked this question because, while I don't hang around in those kinds of communities a ton, I find that what I often see is more focused on sexier topics like investing strategies and increasing your income.

Both of those are incredibly valuable tools when you're working to improve your financial health, even if you aren't working towards FIRE, but I was searching for advice that felt a little more relate-able to my personal goals.

It turns out that I wasn't alone.

There are a number of people who are actively making choices that are making a positive difference on the environment while helping them save money.

One of the most interesting responses to my questions was, "I just started a process of focusing on my waste… literally." What they went on to suggest was that we are essentially buying our trash.

There was something about that comment that really hit me. I mean, if you're working towards FI or FIRE or just trying to keep your head above water, wouldn't it make sense to stop pay for as little waste as possible?

As I started marinating on this idea, I started thinking about accessible ways to reduce your waste while you work on improving your financial health.
