We do it before every long vacation! ️ Finances for couple (part 2)

These past two weeks? Total Murphy's Law mayhem. 🫠

Seriously, 'Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.'

• Got slapped with a one-star retaliatory Airbnb review.
• Random circuits decided to quit.
• AC stopped blowing cold.
• Showed up for Tyler’s brother’s wedding flight ✈️—surprise, canceled! 🙉

And the list goes on... Whyyy? Mercury retrograde is already over!!! 🔮

Somehow we made it through. 😮‍💨

And we can’t help but wonder 🤔—are we lucky or unlucky with a few silver linings? 😅

But hey, isn’t that life—and our path to Financial Freedom? Full of surprises that flip everything upside down or stir up a little anxiety.

So, we ground ourselves with the right mindset and plan—not to control the outcome, but to find peace of mind. 😌

Isn’t that the ultimate Freedom? 💎

Top tool for staying sane? Meditation. 🧘

And for finances? In this letter 💌, we’ll continue share how we ensure our loved ones are covered, even when we’re not around. 😇

Have a Life Organizer

Last email, we shared about Estate Planning & Life Insurance.

Now another thing that calms Angie’s panic during flight turbulence ✈️🌪️—keeping our life organizer updated, making sure our loved ones will be taken care of. 😌

What’s a Life Organizer?
A document with all the info our family needs, along with clear instructions on how to manage every aspect of our life—finances, legal matters, and more.

Here’s what we include:

• Financial Institutions & Beneficiaries
• Service Providers
• Key Contacts (healthcare, house-related, legal, etc.)
• Insurance
• House Operations
• Business In-and-Outs
• Crypto Setup
• Final Arrangements

We also detail:

• How to access each item (printed copy, call, or login?)
• What’s time-sensitive (like canceling high annual-fee credit cards 😅)
• Key considerations before taking action

The main benefit?
During grief, our loved ones will know how to manage our finances and use our assets to care for themselves, just as we intended. 😇💗

👉 Hit reply if you’d like a Life Organizer template! 😉

A touch of OCD can be a real asset when managing finances! 😛

It’s okay—your attention to detail will save your loved ones headaches and ensure they are well taken care of. 🫰

Hope it's helpful for your journey to Freedom 🙏

Love you to freedom and back, 🫰

Angie & Tyler

Things We are Loving Right Now ❤️‍🔥

🤤 Eat

• Okume Dashi: O.M.G. This took our homemade Udon (and any dashi-based dish) to the next level! Definitely check out their other high-quality Japanese products. 😚👌 And if you're in Williamsburg, NY, don’t miss a meal at their store!

📚 Read

• Angie’s favorite fiction book of this year so far. Funny enough, it's not her usual genres 🤭 (murder mysteries and psycho-thrillers), but it’s a true page-turner. Brilliantly written. 👏

  What stood out most to Angie was the deep sense of satisfaction she felt while reading it. 💗 It’s a captivating story of friendship, creativity, and complex relationships—all set in the world of video games.

Back to our canceled flight story—Angie spent 40 minutes on the phone, nearly in tears, but was handed a boarding pass eventually.

With the help of kind passengers, she made it to the gate just in time!

And we had a wonderful time at the wedding.

Life’s full of challenges, but compassion and kindness get us through. 💗
