Welcome to Bare Bones Financial

If you’re here, you’re probably looking for a way to take control of your finances without getting bogged down by confusing jargon or overwhelming advice. You’ve come to the right place! At Bare Bones Financial, we believe that personal finance doesn’t have to be complicated. Our goal is simple: to give you the bare essentials of money management in a way that’s easy to understand, practical, and—most importantly—doable.

We’re not here to sell you the latest “get rich quick” schemes or preach about fancy investment strategies you’ll never have time to learn. Instead, we’re all about building solid financial habits and giving you the tools to achieve your financial goals, whether that’s getting out of debt, saving for an emergency, or planning for an early retirement.

Why Bare Bones Financial?

We get it. Personal finance can feel overwhelming. With all the different advice out there—budgeting apps, investing options, credit scores, and more—it’s hard to know where to start. Maybe you’ve tried creating a budget that never sticks, or you’ve been putting off saving for retirement because you’re not sure how to begin. Bare Bones Financial is here to help cut through the noise.

Our approach is straightforward and no-nonsense. We’re here to strip down the complicated world of finance to its bare essentials, so you can take the next step toward financial freedom with confidence.

• Debt-Free Living: If debt is weighing you down, we’ll help you understand how to take control of it. From the debt snowball to the debt avalanche, we’ll break down strategies that can get you out of debt faster and more efficiently.
• Smart Saving: Building an emergency fund, saving for big life goals, or setting up automatic savings—saving money doesn’t have to be hard. We’ll show you how to make saving a habit, even if you’re starting with just a little bit.
• Simple Investing: When it comes to investing, we keep it simple. No need to worry about complicated stock charts or financial buzzwords. We’ll teach you the basics of investing in stocks, bonds, and index funds, and how to get started with as little as $50.
