I love that you are so transparent 😊most people will say they have low income and then they'll be like that their budget is $1,300 for one week that's not low income 😂
My dad makes 1000 a week but just mortgage is 1700 a month we're a family of six and only he works😂so yes it's low income for most. Plus all the other bills
You might assume that a family with an income of $20000/year can pays all their bills, and have money leftover. Not true. Americans are in debt. I am wealthy, and have been stuffing envelopes for about 30 years. I refer to envelopes as my "no surprise budget". Example: need $700 for a root canal? No problem. I have $700 in my "medical" envelope.
Also if god forbid someone loses a lot of their income, it can help in that situation too! imma try and get my mom into doing this too, since they have more bills and another loan to pay now, so they have much less spending money than usual
I do delivery. It pays pretty good. One thing I have thought about is if 2 people that have small children were able to do delivery together than the two could watch each others children as the other gets out to go in the restaurant and the delivery.
@@ariehorton396 apparently the insurance decides how much you need too?? i was talking to an american friend about it and he mentioned that it’s decided by the insurer and not the doctor??? its so so so horrible
You do need to separate your money and your babies money. I know as a mum myself it’s so easy to just buy stuff for them and put yourself on the back burner. If you don’t want to use to much by all means only save £20 but it’s good to also spoil yourself, mums do so much for their kids.
Honestly If you dont know what your going to school for, dont go untill you are ready. I would keep working and saving money while my partner goes to school than when ready go to school. Ita hard when both are going to school and not much income is coming in. Good luck
I agree !! I have wasted so much money on school b/c I was unsure about what I wanted to major in so I would switch my degree so many times and now I have a good chunk of student loan debt.
Thank you so much and to everyone as well. I think I’ll see what’s best, or if I can find a pretty ok job without having to go to school and be in debt. I always appreciate your input Amanda ♥️
I agree, my husband went back after I finished. I worked 1, sometimes 2 part time jobs throughout to help pay for daycare. We were eligible for federal and state grants and it made the most sense to start at the community college to knock out the core classes then I used a program to transfer all the credits into a bachelors program. Graduated with a masters degree with just over $25,000 in loans which we are working on knocking out. Good luck and keep going!
Low income here! 🙋♀️ this makes me happy seeing a low income. Idk why but I feel more comfortable seeing that! I’m starting my budgeting journey as soon as I get my first paycheck :)
Thank you so much Kourttney 🥰 I feel so much better watching people with the same income as me. I know you’ll do well on your first budget ❤️ let me know if theres something I can help with ♥️
This randomly popped up on my recommended and I wanted to learn how to budget since I’m still a teen and I think you are doing great! But feel free to also add more ads to your videos. I’m sure that all of us will be more than happy to watch them so it will help a little more with your budget. Also I will continue to support your journey. You are doing a wonderful job! Keep up the great work!
If this was my husband and I, we'd stop funding the Gifts envelope and put that toward getting rid of a CC debt. That's a lot of money for gifts that aren't for Christmas. So sweet how you talk about Mia.
Honestly a low income family doesn't need a credit card. I am no way low, but I don't want to have any temptations to spend money I don't even own. Of course there are some benefits in owning the card, but if saving is goal - it's useless.
@@Sarrrita i understand that to some, eventhough they are low income, CC is a way to pivot through that dry seasons. just be smart to use it only for necessary things, but yeah temptation is the worst! i just received my CC that has a 13k limit. yeah... pretty sure gonna lower it since, again the temptation XD
If a moped would really help you guys with your work I would honestly take all the money from the gifts and put it towards the moped. Thats just me though i dont like buying gifts i think a thoughtful card with a nice message or collage of photos or something else handmade is cheaper and more appreciated.
I truly respect how transparent you are and how hard you're working to better your lives. It's hard being low income with two people, I hope one day soon you'll both be making closer to an actual living wage, you deserve it just like anyone else. As for school; wait till you know, you have TIME!!! There's no rush, you could be eighty and graduating girl. I believe in you and your family.
Same. My husband makes pretty good money but we are both horrible about spending too much. The “it’s only $20!” Mindset has probably cost us about $50,000 at this point.
Thank you so much!! I've been so discouraged by other cash stuffing and sinking funds videos because they are so much over my income and unrelatable. It was refreshing and encouraging to watch your video!
I love how transparent and honest you are! I also really love that you still have slots for things like anniversary and valentines because i think it’s so important to include YOU and your family fun
Your amazing!!! I did just like you when I was working three jobs. Stuff those envelopes!! That’s how I put myself through school a second time, put $$ on a car, paid vet bills, and rented a one bedroom. Your doing great!
As a woman in my 20's, I'm still learning how to do this whole cash envelope thing. I love watching videos to get insight on how others manage their money. I thing that this is a great thing for people of any age to learn for them to be responsible with their money. Even if you're not low income, I think that seeing how low income families manage can help us learn to manage our money in a case in which money may be short, such as in a recession.
If you enjoy this process…i highly recommend you look into accounting…u love money and budgeting it comes natural to u…u would be an asset to the accounting industry. Love this video.
Thank you for this. I literally cry because sometimes I feel like I’m not doing enough for my 2 kids but I’m trying. It gives me some relief that I’m not the only one with a low income who’s doing the best they can💕💕
I love that you are so honest. So many people have say they have a low income but deposit 1K a wk, like uhm no. It is nice to see a true low income so i can budget like that as well
A hint that I would like to share is that some companies have “education” programs where they may pay a portion or entirety of a certificate or degree in that field. So, it might be worth it to look into the benefits of the companies you are applying to. A co-worker at an old job in the health field started as a Secretary and got part of her College Bachelors degree paid for by the company. Some industries to look at for that benefit would be healthcare or public health, finance, and early childcare/education and others.
These are so relaxing!! My heart goes out to you because you deserve so much more! I love how positive your outlook on everything is and I hope you know how much you help others by posting these videos!!
Watching vids like this from Australia really makes me literally sick in my stomach because you guys just can't even break even letalone get ahead with your garbage wages & lack of healthcare. Australians pay $5.90 for most medications on our PBS Government subsidy scheme thru our universal healthcare, Medicare. I just...wish you all could have our lifestyle. Fantastic minimum wage (high cost of living but at least we get paid adequately at the least), healthcare provided, & if you don't have a permanent job but work work casually the hourly rate is even higher to account for the holidays you're not getting paid for (4 weeks per year minimum here).
I am trying to begin my budget journey as I try for an independent future away from home, but its hard cause I am single and have such a low income. And finding someone who is on the same level doing a budget and showing it is feasible is so helpful. I’m full time but only rake in a take home of $624.10 every two weeks. Since taxes, insurance and retirement take outs pull a big chunk. I am getting my ducks in a row for when I don’t have a car payment since its almost paid for so I can be financially and mentally prepared for having to handle everything on my own since I am hoping to finally leave the nest. Thank you for being so transparent and open, it really does help.
Yea I with you on this low income side and your budget sounds like mine as well so that helps. I’m super new to this and want to try it because I’m the worst at saving! But on the bright side when you start making money on UA-cam things will be better for you and your family financially so there’s that 💖
i love watching these vidoes. Its even better when they dont make much, because thats the reality of a lot of people, and you can relate to them alot. This was such a great video
Bless you for being so honest. It’s hard to find help and ideas with a similar monthly wage as you when most “low income” videos are double or triple my biweekly wage. 💕
Listen.... low to high! You will be prosperous. This makes me a proud woman. Anyway, thx for the tips! I think ppl believe budgets aren't needed for low or high income... teuth is everyone excepr Beyone and JayZ needs a budget.🤣 For real tho.... You'll be budgeting thousands of dollars soon enough. 🥰
Loved the video! I am also working on a low-income budget and one thing I would suggest - try to lower the food budget, that's one thing that sucks the most money out for everyone.
I know this video was posted months ago but this video called out to me. I graduated last year with an associate degree in health science and couldnt get a job in my field, still applying and i currently work an at home job that pays weekly but with bills plus my mom having lost her job since she can no longer work due to a car accident- its hard and so i needed this video
You are the first youtuber I have watched the ads all the way through! Its hard for me I am impatient, lol, but you are very strong to be low income and manage to save all that money for various expenses. You are proof its not what you make but how you spend/save it!
I totally felt that citizenship savings, we saved money for that but as a DACA receptive we're going to wait if my husband gets a visa or green card now
Thank you for your honesty! So many don’t tell what there monthly income is so it’s almost impossible to to flow your foot steps if I can’t compare mine to yours. I just got laid off and still haven’t received unemployment so I’m living off one income while actively searching for new work. Thanks for your help again 💖
Great video. If you have credit card debt sitting at a high interest rate you may want to consider putting all your paycheck onto the credit card except for the money you need for rent or other things you can't pay with a credit card. Then use the credit card to buy all of the things you need when you need them still following your budget. This way that cash is working for you paying down the amount of money that is accruing interest instead of sitting in an envelope waiting to be used.Still allocate to each envelope the amount you have for that item but just write it down in envelope but put the actual money on the credit card. Then only spend that amount. I know some people don't like to use credit cards but as long as you keep paying more money on it than what you spent last month you won't accrue new interest and you will pay the balance down faster. Just a suggestion. You are doing great as you are.
I just found this video and I positively love it. I really think this system is something my daughter could benefit from and I just ordered some supplies to get her started. This is this kind of information and instruction I think should be taught more in high schools. My kids can do Calculus but don't know how to balance a checkbook or create a financial plan and budget. Excellent video, please continue to make them. :-)
I love this! A lot of ppl can have more money but cannot budget so their money goes down the drain. I would consider myself low income since I make less than $40k a year but I am alone and suck at budgeting. I blew $600 on food/going out. I do spend more on food Bc I believe high quality food will lower my health expenses but I could be doing so much better. I love this method and will be trying it. I don’t envelope stuff but I do have 4 bank accounts that I will separate money with. Thank you for the inspiration.
Thank you so much 🥰 I’m really glad it helped. And I agree ^...^ they need to start teaching valuable life lessons as early as high school like how to file your taxes or interview for your first job.
Things might be tough right now, but with the kind of maturity and money management your showing, you will definitely achieve great things in the near future.
I love that you're low income bc I can relate to you. We can grow together. I also watch and love pinkxbudgets. I just bought some place holders myself
I appreciate you and this video . This is one of the realest low income budgeting videos i can relate to . God bless you and your beautiful family .😌🙏💕
Here is a tip. If yoy are wanting to bring tour income up try your states department of corrections. Ive been doing it for years. Its nothing like you see on tv and they pay really well for glorified babysitting
So does everyone who budget like this, always pay in cash at the store. Because it kills me to see how much cash back you are missing out in by using a rewards credit card. This is why I wish there was some sort of app where you could do this virtually through your bank. Does anyone know of an app like so
You could deposit your savings. Use them to get the cash back. And then at home add up all the cash and deposit it back once a month. As pinkxbudgets does.
Thank you for this video. Definitely subscribing! I love seeing low income. So many people would say low income and then do 1k+ lol. Thank you! Keep up the good work and being honest! ❤️
I need to start doing stuffing again! I’m low income, and I find it really hard to keep up with bills and having money in general :( but I love this video! Thanks for sharing 🌸🌸
I don't know why, but this is so satisfying. I think it's so aesthetically pleasing and crisp. It's so great how you manage the low income; it's very admirable. I also don't know why, but it also makes my heart hurt. Kind of makes me realize how privileged I am for myself, but I do understand the low income ride as a college student. I just don't have as many responsibilities as you do Definitely subscribing and would love to continue to see your weekly budgets!
I love this system but my boyfriend loves to have everything digital and that makes it a bit difficult. I´ve been really wanted to budget more because we keep spending money on things we don´t actually need (we just moved in together so I guess it's just the sense of freedom that makes us go wild, also.. covid.. you know) and I just want both of us to know what we are actually spending that much money on. I tried it digitally in the bank but it doesn't seem to be working as good!
My fiance and I both going back to school too! We are fortunate that we both have decent paying jobs, but I am planning on quitting so I can work and go to school part time so I am saving like crazy.
Thank you for this, I subscribed because you have a beautiful voice and soul and realistic, cant wait to start budgeting and watching your videos to help! love your transparency.
I wanna do the 100 envelope challenge too! And I think you should separate your allowance and Mia’s allowance and if you dont use it you can save that later 💕Maybe use it as a motivation! Love your videos like alwayss!! ☀️
Super low budget here too! And I track and plan it using Excell for easy managing and not too much time consuming on making a budget planner in written type (because im lazy to do lol) but its nice too honestly for personal touches. But Excell spreedsheets works for me better :)
Finally someone whos real on UA-cam..You're so relatable...I love your video....Some people say they're low income earners and make 4000$ a month..Thats not low income.....i make 1500$ a month
I know this is an old video, but the glasses thing: Zennioptical , my bf get his from there it’s like $30 total. Frames & lenses & all. So if anyone else in the comments was looking too- there ya go!
Hey!! I just found your channel. I am new to using cash envelopes, but I'm loving it so much. I bought the blue binder for my bills but I am going to buy a couple more as well for sinking funds. Excited to follow your journey. -Fellow Low Income Budgeter
I'm 13 and have one of these! I've saved up in the high hunderes and don't know if I should try and save up while people are still buying stuff for me or save up myself as practice for the future so I have a good habit for it
I love that you are so transparent 😊most people will say they have low income and then they'll be like that their budget is $1,300 for one week that's not low income 😂
RIGHT !!!! I'm like I cannot relate to this ! lol
I know right?! I see a lot of them lately >..< and I honestly would love to make that much a week 😭♥️
I see that a lot as well low income is like under 700 every 2 weeks not no 1500 a week
My dad makes 1000 a week but just mortgage is 1700 a month we're a family of six and only he works😂so yes it's low income for most. Plus all the other bills
It’s all relative to location, number of people supported by that income, etc.
Even if you’re not low income people should still watch this video to see how a low income family budgets.
You might assume that a family with an income of $20000/year can pays all their bills, and have money leftover. Not true. Americans are in debt.
I am wealthy, and have been stuffing envelopes for about 30 years. I refer to envelopes as my "no surprise budget". Example: need $700 for a root canal? No problem. I have $700 in my "medical" envelope.
Absolutely, I’m still a teen, so I’m not on my own yet. But this video was super interesting and I really enjoyed watching it.
Also if god forbid someone loses a lot of their income, it can help in that situation too! imma try and get my mom into doing this too, since they have more bills and another loan to pay now, so they have much less spending money than usual
We're together in this low income ride. I'm stressed out too, but at least we're trying! Keep going! Rooting for you :)
Yes!! 🙌🏻 I’m rooting for you and your finances as well Adriane ♥️

when she said her husband’s medicine cost $350 my heart broke 😭 how can the us continue to charge its citizens so much for healthcare?
i had to pay close to $100 for a work physical the other day.. im underage AND the physical took no more than 18 minutes. its so frustrating
Had to pay $125 for meds recently and that was with medical insurance without it ,it would've been $700 smh
@@ariehorton396 apparently the insurance decides how much you need too?? i was talking to an american friend about it and he mentioned that it’s decided by the insurer and not the doctor??? its so so so horrible
@@haven9680 thats so gross im so sorry :(
its bc all "we" care about is making everything a business. Its one of the many of reasons my boyfriend is trying to get me out of here. Its a joke
You do need to separate your money and your babies money. I know as a mum myself it’s so easy to just buy stuff for them and put yourself on the back burner. If you don’t want to use to much by all means only save £20 but it’s good to also spoil yourself, mums do so much for their kids.

I know some people don't like to use credit cards but as long as you keep paying more money on it than what you spent last month you won't accrue new interest and you will pay the balance down faster. Just a suggestion. You are doing great as you are.
Keep that positive attitude ♥ You are doing amazing. Sending much love to you and your family!
Thank you so much Cody ♥️ I really appreciate the positivity towards my videos and my family 🥰
I just found this video and I positively love it. I really think this system is something my daughter could benefit from and I just ordered some supplies to get her started. This is this kind of information and instruction I think should be taught more in high schools. My kids can do Calculus but don't know how to balance a checkbook or create a financial plan and budget. Excellent video, please continue to make them. :-)
Finally, someone who is on the same budget as me. THANK YOU
I love your videos! Good luck on your budgeting journey, you and your family are doing great!
I love this! A lot of ppl can have more money but cannot budget so their money goes down the drain. I would consider myself low income since I make less than $40k a year but I am alone and suck at budgeting. I blew $600 on food/going out. I do spend more on food Bc I believe high quality food will lower my health expenses but I could be doing so much better. I love this method and will be trying it. I don’t envelope stuff but I do have 4 bank accounts that I will separate money with. Thank you for the inspiration.
This is soooo helpful! I’m an incoming freshman in college and it’s so important for me to learn how to properly save and spend my money 😁
Thank you so much 🥰 I’m really glad it helped. And I agree ^...^ they need to start teaching valuable life lessons as early as high school like how to file your taxes or interview for your first job.
Things might be tough right now, but with the kind of maturity and money management your showing, you will definitely achieve great things in the near future.
I love that you're low income bc I can relate to you. We can grow together. I also watch and love pinkxbudgets. I just bought some place holders myself
I appreciate you and this video . This is one of the realest low income budgeting videos i can relate to . God bless you and your beautiful family .😌🙏💕
Here is a tip. If yoy are wanting to bring tour income up try your states department of corrections. Ive been doing it for years. Its nothing like you see on tv and they pay really well for glorified babysitting
So does everyone who budget like this, always pay in cash at the store. Because it kills me to see how much cash back you are missing out in by using a rewards credit card. This is why I wish there was some sort of app where you could do this virtually through your bank. Does anyone know of an app like so
You could deposit your savings. Use them to get the cash back. And then at home add up all the cash and deposit it back once a month. As pinkxbudgets does.
I love your videos! Your voice is so soothing.
Ahhh that’s so kind 😭🥰 thank you Coralive ^...^ your name is so pretty and unique
Thank you for this video. Definitely subscribing! I love seeing low income. So many people would say low income and then do 1k+ lol. Thank you! Keep up the good work and being honest! ❤️
God bless you all, God loves you alll, and hope you all have an amazing day 💖
Thanks for being so open . The video was great and would love to see more
Thank you so much Kiyonna 😭🥰♥️
I need to start doing stuffing again! I’m low income, and I find it really hard to keep up with bills and having money in general :( but I love this video! Thanks for sharing 🌸🌸
I don't know why, but this is so satisfying. I think it's so aesthetically pleasing and crisp. It's so great how you manage the low income; it's very admirable. I also don't know why, but it also makes my heart hurt. Kind of makes me realize how privileged I am for myself, but I do understand the low income ride as a college student. I just don't have as many responsibilities as you do
Definitely subscribing and would love to continue to see your weekly budgets!
Love your set up! Pretty pink!!❤
This was so nice to watch, I wish you the best on your journey!
I love this system but my boyfriend loves to have everything digital and that makes it a bit difficult. I´ve been really wanted to budget more because we keep spending money on things we don´t actually need (we just moved in together so I guess it's just the sense of freedom that makes us go wild, also.. covid.. you know) and I just want both of us to know what we are actually spending that much money on. I tried it digitally in the bank but it doesn't seem to be working as good!
I love Jenny’s videos as well 🥺🥺
It's so encouraging to see someone doing the best with what they have. Makes me feel like I'm not the only one haha. Thanks for sharing!
Yes! Finally, a budget I can relate to.
My fiance and I both going back to school too! We are fortunate that we both have decent paying jobs, but I am planning on quitting so I can work and go to school part time so I am saving like crazy.
How did you make the actual envelopes? Super cute
Thank you for this, I subscribed because you have a beautiful voice and soul and realistic, cant wait to start budgeting and watching your videos to help! love your transparency.
I wanna do the 100 envelope challenge too! And I think you should separate your allowance and Mia’s allowance and if you dont use it you can save that later 💕Maybe use it as a motivation! Love your videos like alwayss!! ☀️
Its so much fun Constanza ♥️ and I think I might have to, maybe when she’s one? Thank you so much for being here 🥰
Your channel is adorable. Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you so much!
Hey I am 25 and it’s just me and I still understand the low income ride but we all are making it happen. !!!
Super low budget here too! And I track and plan it using Excell for easy managing and not too much time consuming on making a budget planner in written type (because im lazy to do lol) but its nice too honestly for personal touches. But Excell spreedsheets works for me better :)
Something you can study and quickly is phlebotomy or any other trade in a community college. Phlebotomy is one semester long.
Blessings to you and your family. May God look out for you and may you lean on Him for strength. Y’all got this!
You're so sweet⚘God bless your family abundantly and may you flourish together always. Thank you for helping us all⚘
Yes I love pink budgetz 💖😍😍

Hey!! I just found your channel. I am new to using cash envelopes, but I'm loving it so much. I bought the blue binder for my bills but I am going to buy a couple more as well for sinking funds. Excited to follow your journey. -Fellow Low Income Budgeter
I'm 13 and have one of these! I've saved up in the high hunderes and don't know if I should try and save up while people are still buying stuff for me or save up myself as practice for the future so I have a good habit for it
I love your stickers 😍😍😍
