My Frugal Miser - December Expenses: $17,550


December finishes the year in the red.  Personal spending was around where it normally is, but business expenses were high. 

I averaged $19/day for food.  This has to stop!  We ate out every meal while in Birmingham to work on one of my properties, as well as a couple of meals in Miami when we went to the Madonna concert.  There was also some holiday meal spending mixed in there.

There were some larger expenses.  I paid $190 for a new car battery.  We drove to Birmingham to work on a vacant rental property - 600 miles each way.  That used up a lot of gas.  I bought a $500 Amazon gift card to take advantage of a 5% cash back offer.

Business expenses won't be nearly as high in 2020.  I made the final payment on the new siding at the Airbnb.  As I mentioned, we went to Birmingham to do some work.  This entailed a hotel room and supplies including paint and repair materials.
