My Frugal Miser - September 2023 Expenses

September spending was high.

• I made a $7,500 quarterly tax payment.  
• I was on the road virtually the entire month.  Since my work clients provide my food, I only spent $32 last month.
• I prepaid $600 towards my T-Mobile Internet (utilities). Discover offered me an extra 4% cashback on any purchase up to $2,000 and as the September 30th deadline approached this was the best way to take advantage of the offer.

Fun

We love adventures.  Spending on experiences makes us better humans.  

• We went on a cruise at the beginning of the month.  I spent more than planned on excursions and gambling.
