My name is Ashleigh but I’m better known as @the_thrifty_millennial. I’m a 29 year old (soon to be 30) teacher and I live in the Top End with my husband and our fur baby. I love budgeting, saving, investing and all things finance related. I’ve always had a pretty good understanding of how to manage my money (thanks mum and dad!) but a couple of years ago I found the #debtfreecommunity on insta, heard about FIRE and I was hooked! I am investing with a long term outlook focusing on building a portfolio around ETFs and LICs (and one investment property) and hubby and I working towards achieving FIRE before my 40th birthday.
