Top Minimalist Personal Finance Blogs to Read in 2024

Hi there! I’m Michelle and I live in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. As you may have guessed from the site name, I’m a boomer. I was born at the very end of the baby boom. I am married with two daughters – one in college and one in high school. I have worked in the financial services industry for 30 years and I’m passionate about all aspects of physical, mental and financial wellness. I firmly believe that if everyone makes just a few small changes, we can have a positive impact on the planet. The goal for my blog is to share positive thoughts and simple ideas you can use right away to make a difference.

Hi! My name is Steve, and I am an American Expat. The tagline I use on my site is " Sharing Knowledge to Help others Achieve Financial Freedom." I believe as I learn more I want to share more. As a teacher, I want to be able to help people out. The Frugal Expat is a personal finance blog geared to helping people save more, invest more, and reach financial independence.

This site was inspired by my family’s journey to live life to the fullest on less. But what does that look like? It involves budgeting and meal planning, a little minimalism, a strong backbone, and a lot of faith.

Tiny Ambitions is written by me - Britt, a minimalist, ginger cat enthusiast and person who doesn't understand why people do the things they do most of the time. Tiny Ambitions is about recognizing that the life you're living is enough. You don't have to let other people or brands make you feel like you need more to make your life worthwhile. Above all else, Tiny Ambitions is about the search for the tiny life. I don't know if I'll ever find it, but I hope you'll join me in the journey.

In 2016 we retired early from our corporate jobs to live our dream of traveling. We renovated a few foreclosed homes, turned them into rental properties, and got rid of all our belongings. If things go according to plan, our diverse investments should keep us on the road indefinitely. Our travel is slow travel in hopes to get to know each country better and enjoy what it has to offer. In each country, we look for at least one volunteer opportunity. These opportunities allow us to give back a little, and they also give us more insight into each country and put us on the path of some pretty awesome people that we meet along the way. We embrace minimalism and travel with only our backpacks utilizing public transportation. We love the freedom to move when and where at the drop of a hat. Occasionally, as a break from traveling, we house sit. This allows us time to relax, enjoy a home and usually a few pets. We use that time to catch up on our online activities and sometimes binge-watch a series or two. This blog is about stories from our nomadic life. We hope that our stories provide insight into other cultures and encourage our readers to travel to new places.

Welcome to A Way to Less! We are a professional couple in our late 20’s / early 30’s. We live in northern England, UK. Having been avid readers of various other FIRE/travel related blogs we wanted to document our own journey. Reading other blogs has taught us a lot and we see this as our opportunity to give back to the community! We currently work full time as a Chartered Engineer and a music teacher. Our interests include travel, food, sport, music, education and of course personal finance! It is very important to us that these interests are pursued alongside saving for FIRE. They must not be sacrificed along the way! We have reasonably paid professional careers and realise that this puts us in a much better position than many in society. However, we want to show that FIRE is possible while on much more ‘typical’ wages. In fact, we believe that no matter what your financial position, changes can be made in order to improve your outlook for the better.
