About Us

Hi, my name is Matt and I'm the founder of Barefoot Budgeting. This site is dedicated to one thing... helping you budget and save money.

Now I know budgeting and saving is not an easy thing to do, however it is important if we want to know where our money is going and make sure it is working for us not just us working to make it.

Barefoot Budgeting is designed to be more of a casual style budgeting site (hence barefoot) as far too often saving and budgeting sites are about being far too strict and regimented! (and who wants to live like that anyway?) You should be able to budget and save money without ruining your life as well!

So dig in and take a look at all of our different articles and categories to help you with your saving and budgeting questions.
