About A Bit More Free

Hi, I’m Mark

I’m not a financial expert or a get-rich-quick guru. I’m an ordinary person working toward more freedom by spending carefully, learning useful skills and building small sources of income.

A Bit More Free is where I share what I’ve tried, what has helped and what hasn’t, so other ordinary people can find practical ways to create more options in their own lives.
