I’m Jen Smith. I’m a twentysomething on budget with an uber-frugal husband. We got married on October 3rd, 2015 with $78,000 of debt between us. We paid it off in 23 months and have been debt free since August 31st 2017!
I started Saving with Spunk to help my friends and other millennials who want to pay off debt learn to do it efficiently, stay motivated on the journey and have some laughs along the way.
