As a beginner, you are in a very good position because you can set yourself up in a way that avoids some pitfalls that come with this journey by listening to those that have gone ahead of you. I wish I had someone speak to my husband and me about what I'm going to share with you today. 

Today we will be going over Part 4 of the Homesteading for Beginners checklist which covers the topic of saving money in preparation for your journey or projects on your homestead. 

The topic of money is actually a huge pain point in a homesteader's journey. If you desire to one day have a piece of property or you have a piece of property and can't improve it, I share ways for you to find money to add to your homestead savings. 

How much you want to save will have to do with what it is you are saving for. If you are saving for a down payment on a house with land, then this is likely going to take a long time but if you are saving for smaller things like a chicken coop then obviously it will take less time. 

In either case, the way you save money is by reducing your spending or increasing your income or both. Listen to this episode to find money by reducing your spending and adding it to your savings account.
