Before I started blogging, many of my friends would visit me at my home. Whenever it was their first time coming to visit me, several of them would ask me what the apartment number was. You see, my ex-husband had abandoned us after many years of marriage. I didn’t have a “job” per se. I worked on eBay and so many people really tend to underestimate the power of working from home.
I didn’t make a lot…but I made enough to scrape by. For over 3 years, I lived WELL on $18,000/year with two kids as a single mom. Today, I’m going to share with you in depth, how I did all that. It is a story that has been highly sought after for many, many years, and today is the day I’m opening up about it!
How to Live Well on $18k/year
My home: When my friends would pull up to my house (my nice 3 bedroom, 2 car garage house in THE most sought-after subdivision in my city that I lived in at the time), their mouths would drop. Once they regained composure, the first sentence was usually, “How in the world do you have so much?”
Immediately they were drawn in and needed to know everything about how I was able to have so much on what the world calls poverty.
After a while, and so many questions later, I started seeing the same questions asked over and over and decided instead of writing the same emails…over and over, it would save me time to just put the emails on a blog. So, I set out to start a blog and did not promote it at all. In fact, it was password protected and was not even turned “on” with any search engines.
Just me and my friends.
What quickly happened, is that they would share the password with THEIR friends and I began picking up some traffic. I quickly saw this turning into something bigger than I anticipated.
My humble little blog with no spell checked words, no capitalization at the beginning of sentences, no pictures, nothing…was drawing quite a lot of attention. People liked what I was saying, and they were staying on my site for an hour at a time, reading all that I had wrote. They began emailing for more. And as each new question came to me, I wrote a post answering their question, one at a time, in full on the blog.
One day it dawned on me that I should actually TRY. lol. I wondered to myself if I actually did TRY to work the blog, if I could earn income from it and so, I set out on this big adventure. A small girl with a dream of quitting eBay to blog full time.
It wouldn’t come without hard work, that’s for sure. For 4 years, I worked 80 hours a week (yes, a week) on eBay. When I started blogging, I had to work harder than that! I did eBay, worked as a virtual assistant (VA) to cover my blogging expenses, and on the blog. No…I didn’t sleep much. lol.
But it was all worth it. My dream came true and I make more now, than I used to make in an entire year…in ONE month blogging. That’s right. Just a few months ago, I made my all-time high, over $23,000 in one month.
Why am I telling you all this and how does it relate to how to live on so little?
I want you to know that if you want to get ahead in life, you can’t follow what everyone else is doing.
You have to make YOUR OWN path. And when you set out on finding that path that’s right for you, you will fail a thousand times…but…in time, you will find that one thing that clicks. And when you do, it’s magical. It’s life-changing, and you’ll never see the world the same again.
When people told me I needed to get a REAL job, I really had to hold my tongue because, at the time, I didn’t share income reports like I do now. Now, I never get told that, because everyone knows that I’m succeeding far above what they ever expected, which was $0.
My mission from the beginning on this blog has always been to show other moms around the world that you most likely do NOT have to work outside the home if you do not want to. I’m not on some bandwagon to get every mom home, but I AM here to show you that you have options. Options to make your life and your family’s life the absolute best it can be.
Think about it…no more stress from work, getting along with crazy-insane co-workers who irritate the heck out of you, no more boss breathing down your neck for a deadline, being yelled at when you make a mistake, feeling unappreciated, alone, and scared in an unstable employment situation.
Every day, you go off to work and you tear up because you desperately want to be with your kids. You’re missing them walk for the first time, talk for the first time, you feel like you’re missing it all.
My friends…there is a better way. And I believe that every single mom who wants to be home with their kids CAN. I’m living proof it can be done! Yes, you may have to work harder for a little while, but it’s only a season. If you REALLY want it, you CAN make it happen.
The same is true for your income. If you REALLY want to be able to live on $18,000/year or even half that (here’s my post on how I lived on $700/month), you CAN do it. Even if you live on little, you can still have a great life and it’s my job…to show you how!
When I lived on $18,000/year, my exact bills looked something like this:
- Rent: $800
- Gas: $25
- Power/Gas: $110
- Water: $60
- Garbage/Sewer: $60
- Car insurance/Renters insurance: $55
- iPhone: $30
- Satellite TV: $65
- Zyto (here’s my full review of the Zyto): $40
- Groceries: $250
No debt: The first thing you might notice is that I didn’t have any debt. This is true. I’ve been very blessed in all my single years, to not have any debts to pay. I’ve worked extremely hard to live on ONLY what I bring in and not a penny more. If I didn’t have the money, I didn’t buy it. And being extremely frugal, I’m good at getting all that I want on a very tight income.
Car: The next thing you might notice is that I don’t have a car payment. This is also true. Not only did I live on so little, where my bills barely were covered each month, but I was able to save up $7,000 in one years’ time to buy a car outright. Since I didn’t have a loan payment, I didn’t need full coverage, so my car insurance was liability only and was super cheap.
Satellite TV: No, I’m not one of those people who give up TV. Even though I rarely watch it, when I do want to watch it, I want it to be there. I’m not a person all about cutting out the things I want. I’m a person who is crafty at thinking up ways to GET what I want. I’ve always been like that. When I want something, I’m very skilled at figuring out how to make it happen. That is NOT to say I’m manipulative or do this on other people. Please DO NOT misunderstand.
Groceries: I did extreme coupon at the time. Again, knowing how to get what I want, at the price I want to pay. So, I had a very nice stock pile in the garage of all kinds of things and was often found giving them away to help others. When you’re “poor,” there is NO reason to be stingy! The more you give, the more your heart changes, and the more God blesses you. Related: How to Give When There’s Nothing Left to Give
Roommate: I was ALWAYS being propositioned by people to let them stay with me to ease my financial burden, but for me, I promised myself that the next time I live with someone else, will be within a marriage relationship. Again, nothing wrong with having a same-gender roommate, but for me, I just don’t prefer it. I like my privacy and space to be my weird little self. 🙂
Financial aid/government assistance: While I was on poverty level according to the world and was able to receive ALL SORTS OF assistance in many, many different areas, I personally CHOSE not to. Again, nothing wrong with it, just my personal preference. I felt like I had a great life and wanted for nothing, I was my own person, making my own way, and didn’t want to take food from the mouth of someone else who needed it more. I really wanted to be self-sufficient, and I was (and still am!) I chose to stop applying for that stuff.
Gas: Gas was pretty cheap for me, because I didn’t really go anywhere. I was working really hard and focusing on that, the kids and I walked to and from school most days, so a tank of gas lasted me more than a month. Whenever I did have to run errands (or go to church, etc.) I planned trips where I did all the errands in the vicinity at the same time, which I still do. I also keep a list on my fridge of things I need to pick up soon, so that if I’m at a store, I can remember to grab that list, so I don’t forget anything and have to go back again. Much of the shopping I do is online anyway, because that’s how I save the most money. For the most part, the only store I go to, is the grocery store.
Even if you make more than $18,000/year, you may still want to live on less…here are some of those reasons:
• To simplify your life and make life easier. Things get real simple when you are living on less. Those fancy cars, fast food tabs all the time, elaborate houses, they all disappear in comparison. You start to realize exactly how little you REALLY need in order to make it through life. THEN, when you do have more, you can appreciate it all the more!
• To get out of debt. Many people deliberately live on less in order to get out of debt. This is, in my opinion, extremely wise. If you’re serious about getting out of debt, you’ll need to make some drastic changes. While that may not be living on $18k/year, it could be living on half your income. If you are married and you both work, try getting to the state of living where you’re not dependent upon both incomes, but only one. If one spouse makes $2,000/month, this means you have $2,000 to put on debt! You can get out of debt super fast that way and then once you ARE out of debt, go back and get your nice house again, get that nice car, just pay cash for the car and rent, so that you’re not getting BACK in debt!
• To retire early. Who wants to work all their life? Not me! There was a reason I worked 80+ hours a week for those 4 years. So that I can provide for my family as a single mom, making $23k/month and getting somewhere. Put money aside to buy a house with cash (I just bought a brand new car with cash!), to put away for college for your kids, their cars, my retirement, and so on. Work hard now, so that you don’t have to work so hard for the rest of your life.
• To prepare for emergencies. What if you or your spouse were laid off their jobs? What if a natural disaster overtook your home? There are a million and one things that could happen and having a nice, well-stocked savings can drastically help in the event of an emergency.
• To prepare for kids. Some people like to live on little in order to prepare for having kids or adopting. While I feel kids are inexpensive to raise (see my post on how I get my kids clothes completely free here), they still do add to the expenses each month. You might need a bigger house with more bedrooms, a bigger car, more food, and so on. Saving now to prepare for those expenses is wise. As for baby equipment, just don’t buy new and you’ll save a ton (you might want to buy the crib and car seat new for safety reasons). I used to go around yard saleing to gather up all I needed when I had my two little ones. If you’re low-income, WIC is also a good option.
• To start your own business. Depending on the business you want to start, it can become very costly. Blogging is probably one of the cheapest businesses to get started in, but it requires investment just the same…in your time. You have to build it. It can also be very lucrative. Within 1 year from my starting a blog, I was making $10,000/month! I’m not saying that’s normal, but I am saying, it’s possible! And going from making $18,000 a YEAR to $10,000/month was insane and it’s something I’m STILL getting used to with the more I make.
My life has not changed, outside of the fact that I did buy the brand new car and am now renting my dream house. I still save money like crazy. I stopped working crazy hours and now work about part-time. Being self-employed has changed my life and it may be something that you can do as well. Best to have the money to start upfront, so you can really ROCK it. Here’s a post that will walk you through all the things you’ll need to think about before starting a blog, if that is the direction you are thinking about, and if you are looking for how to start a blog for free. And of course, check out my best blogging tips and tricks here!
How to get your cost of living down and how to spend less money on whatever income level you’re at:
• Don’t use any credit cards. You don’t want to incrue any debt. Being debt-free allows you to have a completely free lifestyle.
• Find and use the cheapest cell phone service you can. Net 10 is a great prepaid service and if you don’t use your phone much, the prepaid cards can last you 3 months! Last time I used their service, it was $30 for a phone card, which lasted me 3 months, so $10/month. Now, I have my iPhone, but the service is very cheap and I’m not on a contract at all. It’s MY phone (again, paying cash for what I want).
• Use cash back sites like Ebates. You’re going to spend the money anyway, might as well get paid to shop! If you don’t have an account, you can sign up here and get a free $10 gift card! To receive your free gift card, just make one purchase of $25 or more and they have every site I shop at on there, so it’s very easy. I put a sticky note on my computer so I remember to go through them first. I’ve been with Ebates for about 5 years now and have earned to-date $7,236.84. They are a pioneer in the cash back industry and I highly recommend them!
• Negotiate your bills. Did you know that you can do that with some of them? You totally can. Negotiate credit card bills, everything, and get that DOWN!
• Use free budgeting software and tracking services like Personal Capital. If you don’t have a pre-set budget, you’re dead in the water before you even start. You have to tell your money where to go each month or it likes to spend itself!
• Meal plan. Like budgeting, you have to tell your meals what to make (here’s cost-effective and quick meals for those on a budget) or it can take over your expenses. You’ll go out to fast food too much, nice dinners, and so on. Having a meal plan set up makes things a lot simpler. A couple of the sites that are great for teaching you this are: Thrifty Frugal Mom (she feeds a family of 5 on only $200/month!) and Graceful Little Honey Bee (I do her freezer meal burritos idea instead of buying them).
• Stop paying for stuff. Just decide that there are things you won’t pay for anymore! Here’s my list of 15 things I refuse to pay for. Here’s a post I wrote about how I get all my household products for FREE, including diapers, baby wipes, pull ups, candles, soaps, dishwashing detergent, cleaners, and SO much more!
Increase your income to put into savings:
• Start a blog. Staring a blog is first because it’s my own favorite personal way to make money by doing what I love, serving others! If your heart is about helping others and sharing your knowledge with the world, then you should go for it. I started out with a dream of making $1,000/month by 1 year and ended up making $10,000/month by 1 year! My life has changed drastically. Though the results are not typical, you never know until you try. I surely didn’t know when I started, but God did!
I recommend going through Bluehost and through my site, you can get the cheapest cost (I worked out a deal with them on your behalf!) You have to pay upfront for how many ever years you want to choose, but by far, this is the cheapest and best plan. I pay ONE MONTH for what YOU can get for one YEAR!
• Take surveys online. It won’t get you rich, but it’s income and you want as MANY revenues for income as you can. You can check out my 25 best survey companies here.
• Sell things around the house. Here’s a post I created teaching you how to find FREE things to sell and here’s a post giving you 40 ideas of things you can sell right now that you might already have in your home!

Whatever income you currently live on, whether $18k/year is a dream to you or it’s 1/10th of what you currently make, there are things that you can do to improve your financial outlook and I’m here to prove it. In my darkest time, around 5-6 years ago now, I was homeless. I had absolutely nothing and now, I make pretty dang good money and have no debt. I can come and go as I please, have a nice savings account, and have a lot of options opened up to me now…but it didn’t all come without hard work and God in my life every step of the way.
No matter what your financial situation, you can improve it using these tips. If you enjoyed this post, be sure to let your friends know. Because this information, truly is life-changing to women who want to be home with their kids, or are already home with their kids, but are struggling financially to STAY home with them.

It’s just what you need to motivate you and give you practical steps to step up your money saving game. Written by a single stay-at-home-mom; if I can do it…so CAN YOU!
Kathryn says
I’m fortunate enough to not need to live on $18,000 per year, but I’m still choosing to reduce my expenses to much less than my income for many of the reasons that you listed (especially early retirement and building my blog). I feel that having a higher income actually makes it HARDER to save money and live on less because you think that you deserve more and more and also, you tend to think you can afford more than you actually can, which ends up pulling you into the debt trap. Thanks for all the suggestions and the real budget example!
Sarah Titus says
Making more can definitely be a challenge, especially when income taxes are 37.5% (mine are!) and I pay my own insurance every month, which I never use. Sometimes I’m tempted to tell myself it’s easier when I made so little. I had more! I work so hard, and the world just takes it. It’s hard for me to justify working so much if they are just going to take it. Might as well not work myself so hard…you know. Definitely challenges in each category for sure.
Christina says
It’s amazing that you were able to raise 2 kids on such a little amount. What about things like medical expenses, dental/eye costs, school fees, kids activities etc? When it was just my husband and I we lived on very little but with kids it’s definitely more of a challenge for us.
Sarah Titus says
During that time, my life was all about being able to stay home with my kids. As a family, we sacrificed things like kids activities in order that I could be home with them. It was more important to us personally, but it was just for a season. Now, there are activities, but still pretty tame at this point. Church is mostly what we focus on (free) and having fun like taking small trips, playing the Wii together, etc. My daughter has one activity she enjoys at school, but it’s only $10/week and my income affords it now. 🙂 I guess it just comes down to priorities for each family. There’s no right or wrong, just dependent upon each family situation. 🙂
Lindsey says
I started blogging in January, and I LOVE it! I’m hoping to be able to monetize my blog and eventually become a stay at home full time blogger. I feel like my posts are doing well in the serving others categories though. I’ve tried to share as many tips, suggestions, and personal experiences that I can think of. But it still doesn’t feel like I’m giving enough back.
Sarah Titus says
Lindsey, looks like you have a great start to me. 🙂 I like how uncluttered it looks.
Denise Rodriquez says
Thanks for sharing this. Such incredible wisdom on how to manage a tight budget. You are an inspiration to many who think ‘they don’t make enough’. Looking forward to seeing where the Lord continues to take you!
Sarah Titus says
Thank you Denise. 🙂 So glad I can be used by God to inspire! <3
Sussy Machoka says
Sometimes we underestimate how much we can do with so little, this post highlights as much. Thank you so much for sharing. Truly inspirational.
Sarah Titus says
Glad you like it Sussy. <3 We can definitely underestimate ourselves sometimes.
Linda says
I really enjoyed this post. When I read other posts on frugal living it seems as if they are telling you to give up everything but the necessities in order to live. I believe while this may be to go if one is in dire straits or in danger of losing a home, it is not the only way to live frugally and make ends meet and/or get ahead. With retirement just around the corner for both myself and my husband we live frugally, but still manage to enjoy a luxury here and there. We do not eat out often, are very picky if and when we go to a movie, coupon a lot, and I watch gas prices daily. My biggest luxury is my bi-monthly pedicure/manicure and we enjoy nice family vacations. If money is short for these things we just work a little harder and smarter for them.
Sarah Titus says
Yeah, I’m not big on the whole, “You can’t do this, have this” type of thing. lol. Like you, if I want something, I find a way to figure it out. 🙂 Where there’s a will, there’s a way!
Addi Ganley says
Great post Sarah and congratulations on all of your success and hard work.
This post is a great way to show Mom’s out there that they too can stay at home and still make a difference in their careers. Thank you for sharing your experiences and your knowledge with the blogging world.
Sarah Titus says
Absolutely Addi. Glad you like it. <3
Melissa says
Hello. My name is Melissa. I am from Australia and I am wondering if you know of any online surveys that I could do from Australia. I am a Registered Nurse and school teacher. I have 2 kids and being a single mum meant I had to keep working. I have taken leave from teaching this year just to have a break for a little while. I wonder if doing something like what you have written about could be for me. It sounds very interesting and I like the idea of being home with my kids but still working; that would be so lovely.
Sarah Titus says
I’m not sure about Australia; I’m sorry.
Tracy says
I would like to start a blog and stay home more, but I am not really good at any one thing! I am a single mom, have 7 kids, was able to help 3 in college on 31K, then last year got a better job, and was able to make $57k part time. I am an RN, I went back to school and graduated 4 years ago. I was an art therapist, daycare and sub teacher, wrote mortgages, had a home daycare. Nursing is the best money, but I would like when a little more flexibility. This year I have worked New Year’s eve and day, Valentine’s day, Good Friday, Easter, and Mother’s Day. Any suggestions? My house is a wreck, I have no interest in decluttering, I live with some debt, and we cook some great vegetarian food but it is to eat, not a hobby. What would I blog? Living in the Moment?
Titania says
This by far is the absolute best article I have read in a long time. This is so befitting to my life at this point and I am very excited to begin applying the principles. I am very happy to see that they have been written down and that others have the same thought process. You have epitomized exactly what I hoped to achieve. Thank you for being so transparent and much success and blessings to you and your family!
Sarah Titus says
Thank you Titania. I’m so glad that it has helped! 🙂
Mary says
Dear Sarah,
Thank you so much for this wonderful and informative post. I’ve been thinking of blogging for quite some time, but have been putting it off for fear of the unknown. God has a plan for all of us, I really believe I was meant to find your blog through Pinterest. God bless you for sharing your story. Gives me hope that perhaps I can do it too.
Sarah Titus says
I’m praying for you right now Mary that God would lead you on the path He wants you to be on. <3 Glad you're here.
Christa says
I really like your blog because of your advice on saving money and living frugally, but its hard for some of us to live so frugally because of where we live and other circumstances. I live in right outside of NYC and I never got my driver’s license because I got into an accident and have bad driving anxiety. That limits where I can live a lot because I have to depend on public transportation. I would love to move out of this area, but I don’t see how that would be realistic for me.
I also want to start a blog and work from home, but I get discouraged because I see so many amazing, beautiful well-written blogs. I feel that I probably am not good enough at writing and/or don’t have enough knowledge or interesting things to write about. I’m interested in natural health which seems to be a topic that is already oversaturated. I know I’m being very negative, but I feel like I’m also being realistic. What are your thoughts about blogging as a career for someone like me? I know that it takes time to build a blog and an audience, but what I’m afraid of is that I won’t be able to build a successful blog. My goal isn’t to become wealthy, but to make a good salary so I don’t have to worry every month about making ends meet.
Sarah Titus says
It can be difficult to move, but for me, it’s absolutely what I did. I grew up in California, so I know expensive for sure! I moved where it’s MUCH cheaper. Where $800 gets you a 3 bedroom house with a fenced yard and a 2 car garage in a wealthy subdivision. It’s a decision each person has to make, but I’m so glad I made the one I did! My life (and my kids’ lives) are so much better. I have never regretted it.
For the blog, you have to change your mindset. It’s scary for EVERYONE. To those that make it, are the ones that don’t let ANYTHING stop them. You, my friend, don’t need anyone else to stop you. You’re stopping YOURSELF. Don’t do dat! 🙂 I’ve been just as scared, and more, than you at certain times in my blogging career. Couple weeks ago, I had two panic attacks! I was so stressed and scared, I fainted twice!!! Woke up, hurt my leg so bad, I was in a wheelchair for over a week (couldn’t walk)! First time for that. Being afraid is real. Listen, it happens to ALL of us. But I realized that I’m more afraid of NOT blogging, than I am afraid of going after what I want. What do you want, Christa? You want a life where you can stop worrying about making ends meet? Then go for it. ‘Cuz you’re the only one who can. No one’s going to do it for you. And no one else is gonna stop those fears. <3 Praying for you.
Christa says
Wow! That’s terrible that happened to you (the panic attacks and hurting your leg). I can’t imagine not being able to walk for that long while still having to keep up with your business and caring for your children. I hope you had some help through that time. It would be great if you wrote a blog about difficult situations like that while also taking care of all your responsibilities, and how you deal with fear and anxiety. I really struggle with that. It would help if I had more social support, I’m just not sure how to find that.
Sarah Titus says
I’ve thought about a post Christa; still letting the wheels turn in my head. 🙂 For support, I would say join something you enjoy. How I deal with fear and anxiety…I do it scared. That’s my motto. DO IT SCARED! 🙂
Sashamoniquetalks says
You are truly amazing! You took an unfortunate situation and used it to turn your life around. I agree with you, being frugal is the only way to go if you want to live your life without debt. Debt is a poison that destroys families and the road to living a debt-free life is easier than a lot of people think.
I am living with a chronic illness and it is very hard to find a job or career that will sustain me. I am cutting corners in every part of my life and it is working and little by little, one day I will be at the place I want to be in my life.
Through your blog, I can see where your faith in God was your strength and I am so happy that I found your blog because it is so encouraging.
My blog is my hobby right now and it is slowly growing and I am ready for any blessing that the good Lord provides.
I thank God for this blog, I am learning even more than I thought I knew about saving money!
Sarah Titus says
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words. I am glad you have found some information to help you. It’s awesome how you’ve found ways to start a blog and work towards being debt free, as well as bring in income. Good luck on your blogging journey! <3
Sashamoniquetalks says
Thank you so much, I truly appreciate it! May God continue to richly bless you.
Kathy says
Sarah,
I’m confused. In A previous post you said that you were on government assistance for heat, food, and phone. You also said you had $30,000 in credit card debt. In this post you say that you did not have either and that’s how your budget could work so well. I’m confused. Did I miss something or not read something incorrectly? You can email me your answer if you don’t want to post this comment. I’m just trying to figure things out so that I can get out of that myself. Thank you so much for your help!
Sarah Titus says
Kathy, I can post publicly (I have nothing to hide.) 🙂 🙂 🙂 Yes, in my How To Live on $700/month, I was going through (going by memory here) the LIHEAP program for heating assistance (they pay once/year, one months’ bill), food stamps, and for phone, there’s a discounted program called Lifeline for low income. Before I was living on $700/month, just to give you the broad picture, I received cash aid for a few months, right after I got out of the homeless shelter. They quickly required me to go to work training (40 hours a week) to earn only $500/month! This was NOT in ANY way, acceptable to me. All that time away from my kids for 500 bucks. No thanks. I QUIT the program on my own initiative, got off cash aid, and started reselling. That’s how I made the $700/month. 🙂
At that time, yes, I was in over $30k debt, not all credit card debt though, just a total combination of all debts. A few years later, I niched down on ebay and got really good at reselling and began making $18k/year. At that point, some years later, I was completely debt free and over time, worked myself off of each program I was using. Even though I still QUALIFIED, income-wise for all the programs, I got off. It was a very slow process. Annoying as heck b/c it seemed like they KEEP you ON those programs purposely! When you try to go off one, it affects another. So, it was a huge balance for me and I remember crying out to the Lord many times, “Lord, I’m trying here, but they make it impossible to get off. Help me.” Over time, little by little, one program at a time, I quit.
The thing that I would say is that there’s nothing wrong with accepting help when you need it and no one should feel bad about it if they are not taking advantage of the system (which is between them and the Lord alone). The support is designed to help people and something like accepting the Lifeline program on your telephone bill for low income is not a bad thing. It is designed to help people. So, just do what you can, work on one program at a time that you can, focus on one day at a time, and eventually, you will get there. Today, I make 7-figures/year, but it hasn’t happened overnight. I was homeless NINE years ago. It’s a process. $700/month, then $18k/year, then $10k/month, then $23k/month, then 7-figures. All steps in my path and you will create your path as well. <3
