    Small Space, Big Savings Part 2

    It’s part 2 of Small Space, Big Savings. Alicia Simms and her husband Tyson dive deeper into their epic adventure of downsizing from a 2,400 square foot house to a 25-foot Airstream trailer. They get candid about how stepping away from the traditional idea of homeownership has transformed their lives, giving them more joy and way less financial stress. They’ll also dish on the pro’s and con’s of living in (very) close quarters.  The cost of living has never been more expensive so thinking about how to live a life you can afford has never been more timely.  And while living on the road might not be for everyone, Alicia and Tyson have great advice that virtually anyone can use in this economy.  Your Two Cents - The Podcast is proudly made by by coastal in partnership with Credit Unions and iHeart Radio.
