I refuse to start from zero ever again — financially, emotionally, or mentally. That’s why I built habits that keep me set for life, no matter what happens. Not luck. Not hustle culture. Just smart systems and long-term thinking. Hi, My name is Adeola, NYC travel and lifestyle creator and a Libra who gets bored very easily. Here’s exactly what I do: 💸 I invest at least $2,000 and don’t touch it for 5 years — because real growth takes time. 📱 I love new things, but I find ways to enjoy them without overspending (like Apple’s upgrade program). 💰 I set yearly spending caps — $2K max on flights, a fixed amount for luxury buys. Boundaries = freedom. 💳 I have a financial “floor” — money that never leaves my savings unless it’s a true emergency. 🎯 I always have 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year goals. It keeps me clear on where I’m going next. Bonus tip: A great credit card isn’t just for spending — it’s for building credit, earning perks, and moving smarter. These little systems are the reason I never feel like I’m starting over — even when life shifts. Because being set for life isn’t about being rich. It’s about being prepared, grounded, and confident in how you move. #herlifestyle #forthegirlies #povs #softlifestrategy #womenintheir30s
