June 2021 is a thing of the past, and as projected last month – it was indeed an expensive month! June is a major birthday month in my family (wife, mother and sister in law) and on top of that, I decided to purchase some new wheels for my wife’s car (2nd hand, of course!…

Monthly Update #33 (May 2021) – Business as usual
Hello good people of the FIRE community! Another month has passed, and it’s thus time for another riveting update from yours truly. May was a relatively quiet month in the Total Balance household – hence the title of this update (business as usual).
Monthly Update #32 (April 2021) – Another round (of leverage)
Here we go again. Another monthly update (have you grown tired of them yet?) from yours truly. The month of April has been pretty eventful. Denmark is slowly beginning to open up from the winter lockdowns (please don’t let this become a returning thing!), and we’ve spent some time in our garden planting trees and…
Monthly Update #31 (March 2021) – Double up!
Is it April already?! It would appear so! SPRING is finally here! And with spring comes yet another update from yours truly.

Monthly Update #30 (February 2021) – Dejavu
The calendar is reading March 2021 and February 2021 is thus a thing of the past, and as always here at the Total Balance household it’s thus time to take a look back at how the previous month played out. I must say I have somewhat a feeling of Dejavu; The update from February 2020…

Hello fellow wealth seekers and good folk! We’re well into the new year, and it’s thus time to look back at how our financials have fared in January 2021. The winter has truly arrived in Denmark, so we spent some time outdoors in the snow with the kiddo! It was nice to be outside and…
Monthly Update #28 (December 2020) – Return of the Jedi
Happy new year! What a year. I think we’re all pretty happy to leave 2020 behind. 2021 is already looking significantly brighter, and we all have high hopes that this new year will be more normal than the one we just left! Pandemic aside, 2020 was not a bad year in terms of my investment…
Monthly Update #27 (November 2020) – The Force Awakens
Hello again! November 2020 is a thing of the past, and as is the norm here in the Total Balance household, it’s thus time for another monthly update! So, what happened in November?! You might have already guessed it, but look who finally decided to join the race! (YES – the missus is here!). Mrs….
Monthly Update #26 (October 2020) – Government support
Hello fellow wealth seekers and good folk! It’s November already, and the US elections are stealing the headlines across the globe once again. To no-ones surprise it’s another nail-biter, and at the time of writing it’s still pretty unclear who is going to be in the oval office by January 20th 2021. The only thing…
