#220 When to tip and how much?

Feeling lost in the complex world of tipping? In this episode, we unpack tipping culture in the U.S. Whether you're dining out, picking up takeout, or receiving a service at home, we cover the expectations and realities of tipping in various situations. Listen to my thoughts on when I tip and when I don't, and let me know what you do or whether you think I'm right or wrong on Instagram @budgetsmadeeasy. Hosting Today: I'm Ashley Patrick, ex detective turned debt-free CEO of my very own business and stay at home mom of three. Not too long ago, my dreams of staying at home with my kids seemed impossible. I thought I'd have to stay miserable in a high stress demanding job, just so I could retire someday. After gaining the confidence in my own ability to manage my family's finances and a simple step-by-step plan to make it happen, I was able to pay off $45,000 in just 17 months, which then allowed me to finally quit my job, stay at home with my kids, and build a debt-free business. Now, my mission is to help moms like you conquer debt and free themselves from the mental load of handling their family's finances. “Why don't you just pay your people enough to work? Like, I don't get it. We need to just pay a living wage, even if that means that we pay more on the menu.” - Ashley Patrick For easy step by step directions and worksheets on getting your budget together and done in 30 minutes a month, download my FREE Budget Starter Kit on www.budgetsmadeeasy.com/start And if you enjoyed the podcast today and got some great takeaways, I’d really appreciate it if you followed the Money Mindset Podcast so you don’t miss out on future episodes Resources and Links Mentioned: * Grab your FREE Budget Starter Kit at www.budgetsmadeeasy.com/start Connect with Ashley: * Instagram: www.instagram.com/budgetsmadeeasy
