Join Melvin Lim, Co-founder and CEO of PropertyLimBrothers, as he catches up Dawn Fiona, a.k.a SG Budget Babe! Dawn shares her journey of financial empowerment, having saved $20,000 in just one year on a modest ~$2,000 take-home monthly salary through disciplined savings strategies, not investments.
What began in 2014 as a blog born out of boredom evolved into a platform focusing on finance, driven by Dawn's passion for writing and client engagement.Despite juggling roles, including teaching tuition to supplement income and covering parental allowances and insurance, Dawn found joy in educating others, viewing it as a passion rather than merely a means to an end.
In 2022, she transitioned focus to a new business venture, balancing entrepreneurial pursuits with family responsibilities, including teaching tuition even through pregnancy. Dawn's insights on financial literacy for fresh graduates, emphasising debt clearance, emergency savings, and insurance planning, provide valuable guidance for navigating early adulthood challenges. Find out more about what drives and keeps SG Budget Babe driven, on this special episode of NOTG!
