Multiple bank, savings and retirement accounts near you April 2021 This bucket list item was solidified after months of listening to my favorite financial podcasts and starting on my own FIRE journey. When I added this goal (probably in Fall/Winter 2020) I was still about $32K away from the goal I landed on, “to haveContinue reading “No. 14 Net Worth Goal”

No. 10 Hot air balloon ride
Phoenix, Az October 2021 On a quick girls weekend to Scottsdale, AZ my favorite travel ladies made the list again! On our second morning in Az, we got up EARLY, like really early for a sunrise hot air balloon ride. The flight was great, the sunrise was unreal from the sky and thankfully our pilotContinue reading “No. 10 Hot air balloon ride”
No. 4 Read 30 books
Clearly I’ve already read 30 books in my lifetime, but I wanted to be a little more intentional about reading books. Books 📚 1) Unapologetic: A Black, Queer, and Feminist Mandate for Radical Movements (Charlene Carruthers) finished on July 12 2020 2) How to be an antiracist (Ibram X. Kendi) finished on August 10 2020Continue reading “No. 4 Read 30 books”
No. 5 indoor sky diving
IFly Ontario March 2021 Is it cheating if it was only indoors? If you think so, I’d argue that there are a lot of people that use the IFly facilities for the pre-flight trainings etc, so I think it counts! Probably the closest I’ll get to sky diving in my lifetime, but I definitely wantContinue reading “No. 5 indoor sky diving”
No. 16 Learn something (that isn’t for work)
RE 175- Real Estate Financing Saddleback Community College Feb- April 2021 Might not have been the most flashy “learn something” I could have done, but a short while after I turn 30 I’m hoping that purchasing a home is in my near future and I’ve been recently more aware of how little I actually knowContinue reading “No. 16 Learn something (that isn’t for work)”
No. 7 Go to therapy
September 2017 Costa Mesa, CA Why is there always such a negative association with people needing, wanting or going to therapy? I don’t know. But when not going turns into unloading (exploding) on our family and friends with moments (outbursts) of emotion that are catastrophic in size and sometimes volume, is that really the bestContinue reading “No. 7 Go to therapy”
No. 2 Become a “regular”
Everbarre 2019-2020 Irvine, CA This one depends highly on what you consider to be the definition of a “regular”. For my 30 before 30 it meant attending a class often enough that the instructor knew my name enough to also recognize when I hadn’t been in a while. One of the Bests introduced me toContinue reading “No. 2 Become a “regular””
No. 3 See the view from the top of a mountain
July 31 2018 Haleakalā, HI This one definitely evolved… I do not know what kind of imagination I had seeing myself “climbing” a mountain. So I adapted to “See the views from the top of a mountain”. Much more reasonable. I picked Haleakala on Hawaii, which is technically a volcano. And just so I don’tContinue reading “No. 3 See the view from the top of a mountain”
No. 12 Go wine tasting
Napa November 2018 I went to college in Sonoma County and somehow only managed to go wine tasting once. This was one of my biggest regrets when I decided to move back to Southern California, so adding this to the bucket list was a no brainer. What I didn’t know at the time of addingContinue reading “No. 12 Go wine tasting”
No 18. See Zac Brown Band Live
October 28 2017 Hollywood Bowl There were a lot of Country Music concerts attended right when I moved to Huntington Beach, but one group I knew Country Coastal Jam wouldn’t bring was Zac Brown Band. Luckily good friends always seem to make pull through! Ashley made the trek to the HollyWood Bowl with me andContinue reading “No 18. See Zac Brown Band Live”
