Hi! I’m Sarah Wilson, aka Budget Girl here on the internet, a YouTuber, debt-destroyer, side-hustler, speaker and financial wellness advocate. I believe one of the keys to creating the life you want is to manage your money and I’m here to teach you how.

I’ve made weekly videos on my YouTube Channel for the past five years on how to live a frugal, fun and financially fearless life, showcasing budget activities, DIYs, how to invest, build wealth, raise your income, and live your best life with the aid of a budget. 

I documented my successes and challenges paying off $33,000 of student loans in just 3 years on a tiny reporter’s salary of $26,000 / year. I side-hustled, negotiated for better pay and positions and worked to drastically change my financial future. Now I’m even more passionate about teaching others how to manage their money, pay off debt and live the life of their dreams on less.
