The beginning

One day i found myself at thinking, why am i not rich. I mean i am not stupid maybe not the smartest person in the world but i should be able to make some money right! I don't understand a lot about investing stock markets or crypto i am not good even keeping up with my budgeting. Sometimes looking all these self made millionaires and reading their stories always makes me think that i could do that, that is easy. But still i am not doing anything, just thinking about it. I don't understand a lot about investing stock markets or crypto i am not good even keeping up with my budgeting! Maybe i am hoping to win a jackpot, maybe some relatives will leave me huge amount of money after they die, maybe i am not ready yet, maybe i don't have the starter money, maybe i fail, maybe maybe maybe...Always an excuse, where does that come from? From childhood?

Yes i come from poor family, but growing up without money was not a problem to me. Yes i went to sleep hungry and sometimes my only food was the school lunch, i didn't have new clothes to wear but my sisters old clothes were fine to me. I didn't have material things and i didn't care much to be honest, i had the best childhood with my friends playing outsaid from morning till evening ahh so so much fun not like kids these days right.

I was very young when i knew that i wanted to be a dressmaker. My grandma sometimes made me a skirt as a Christmas present and i remember how happy i was, i was crying because i was so happy and then i just thought that if i new how to make skirts like that i could make many people happy too. So after high school i went and studied dressmaking and higher fashion and i had big plans to become a famous fashion designer. Did i become one? No i did not. After being part of that "other" side of making clothes i realised that its terrible business to be in...all the waste and chemicals and all that stuff just wasn't for me anymore. I didn't quit sewing of course, after having my two boys it seemed that opening my own little sewing studio at home was good idea. And it was, but i never reached that millionaire status with that and i didn't really want to, it was very hard work and people always complained about the price and said that they could buy that much cheaper from a shop. No appreciation what so ever! I loved working for my self, organizing my own time so that i could be with my family and knowing that all the money stays in the family.

I never liked the idea of working for someone and making them rich while killing my self for them, no not for me. I wish i was smarter when i was in my twenties, i wish i would educate myself about money and make some smart moves and save and invest some of my income maybe then i would be millionaire by now and i would not be writing here right? But i am here, in new country, no job, with three boys and a 42 years of life experience! Something has to change, i am going to start new chapter in my life so that i could spend some of my next 60+ years living financially free life! First i am going to learn how to change my mindset, figuring out why i have money on my mind, but not that money mind! How to save money and make it grow! How to invest and make money work for me. Okey i know its going to take time and i do not expect to become millionaire over night or anything like that but i am going to move in that direction, so are you here with me for fun or maybe you are here for the same reasons that i am. Welcome and lets get started!
