Once Upon A Dollar
Welcome to Once Upon A Dollar!
Hi, my name is Em — I’m a travel agent living in Canada and I’m on a personal journey to financial freedom. This channel is my digital journal, documenting where I started and where I hope to go, one dollar at a time.
Once Upon A Dollar is a space for honesty, growth, and accountability. While my posting schedule may not always be consistent, my goal is to stay committed and transparent as I navigate saving, budgeting, and building a better financial future.
If you're also on a journey to take control of your finances — whether you're starting small or just looking for inspiration — you're in the right place. Let’s save together, one step (and one dollar) at a time.
