Please share your digital minimalism video with us lol we need it!
OH yes coming soon
@@KellyStamps THANK YOU
loll then you turn 30.. people younger than 30 think it's ollld but i'm soo looking forward to 30
Flip phones are better anyways because u can slap them shut whenever you hang up on somebody 🙃💯
God I miss that!! Also flipping them open dramatically whenever you're taking a call. Made me feel ImPorTanT as a teen
@@Hana-we8kq You can get an android flip phone.

Love this.
😅Right.
U know I was planning to get one anyway. Probably a good idea
“Avoid everyone, save money” is my life motto
My new life motto as well!
Yes
I'm missing the money part. But as soon as this degree come? chyl...
😌 💯
It works for sure.
I thought i was weird for deleting my social medias, getting rid of my “friends”, and spending most of my time alone... i used to be very social but honestly im so happy just being alone.. took a while to get to this point tho
Same here ✌️😎
I get up at 4:30 to walk my Yorkie,dog Diamond, idont need a clock the Holy Spirit wakes me up!i am so thankful to open my eyes plus very few people are out.the fresh air feel so good on your skin,and my dog love her walk when the weather is good,the weather is really good in the the southeast.
I spend most of my time alone
I am so happy for you, honestly same here ✨🦋
Same here
my boyfriend has a flip phone and he survived without social media. I was attracted to his minimalist ways lol.
I'd date a man with a flip phone! He sounds like a keeper.
@@KellyStamps... How would he get on Bumble/Tinder/Hinge to meet you ? 🤷🏻♂️😋
@@thebesttheworst2277 lmfaoooo good one 🙈
honestly don't know him but he already sounds like a catch.

I fell in love with “Avoid people and save money” 😍
That's why we're on UA-cam haha
I've never related to something more than this statement :D
I want a tshirt 😂
That is why I clicked too. Love being alone SO MUCH.

finally, a young relatable female talking about minimalism... taking notes so I too can become a flagillionare.
What is a flagillionaire.....? 🤔🤔

“Maybe it’s anxiety, maybe it’s maybelline” that’s gonna be my senior quote
I was also thinking that....lol! haha!
Mine was none at all ;)
I was thinking, I can't believe that anyone would give that 530 thumbs up
Cause either way I was born with it.
@Tonika it's a make up brand and their famous advertising tagline is "Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline." I'd suggest searching a Maybelline commercial in UA-cam if you wanted to see an example.
I love the dry humor, the deadpan sarcasm, the blunt truth, and the tough love.
Kelly Stamps is doing what every woman who had a baby too young, got married, never had a career, supported their kids and their husbands, lost track of their own hopes, dreams and potential and pretended they weren’t resentful, always wanted to do in their 20’s. Kelly Stamps is fully embodying early womanhood and I’m here for it.
Jesus. This was 100% an attack and I'm only halfway through 20 (25) lol
I FEEL LIKE YOU SAW INTO MY SOUL.
Wow, Nailed it.
Sermon
True and it hurt. ❤️😂
I also avoid people on a daily basis, who else just feels happier that way? 😅
I stay inside with my 1 year old while hubby goes to work lol I feel better that way and secure
I think we're called introverts lol.
@@miriammoriarty8588 most people who like to avoid people aren't introvert they just allergic to bullshit and the world is full of it 🤷🏼♀️
Yup...😔😔
Long as I have UA-cam ,a place to lay my head by myself, and food, I'm happy. Allot of people nowadays are just too drugged out and on drugs and listening to rap music.!!! I avoid that
"Frugal hermit with expensive energy". Can we get an AMEN.

Happy Thanksgiving Kelly.
Your name literally goes with everything😂❤️
Yesterday had a breakdown and cried because of how broke I am, this motivates me to work harder, save money and be financially stable. Thank you Kelly you have no idea how much this helps me 🥺
same
More love n strength to you girl ❤️
Work Smarter also. A lot of people work hard but never reach financial freedom.
How are you doing love?
ashleene j. Say that again for the people in the back🗣🗣!!
I never used a gym membership. I love running outdoors or if the weather is bad, there are TONS of online workouts on youtube for free that are KILLER.
i’d say it would really depend on your goals, but yeah just doing outdoors aint all that bad
Just try not to let the sun prematurely age you👌🏽
I stopped using condoms & toilet paper to save money!
gyms provide what a home gym cannot. that is a huge variety of cables, weights, and machines hitting different angles on muscle fibers. you can also be motivated by seeing others work out there or make a good friend who will keep you motivated.
Yes working out at home is way better without distractions and people staring you down. Sicking and rude
“avoid everyone, save money” is my new introvert/minimalist saving motto
She is really good at advertising sponsorships, I don't feel like it's being forced down my throat like other youtubers.
Thank you!
💯
Talent!
Exactly!!
“They’re just jealous they can’t listen to ringtones” 💀
My parents laugh at me when I told them I want to go back to having a flip phone! I really hate the society we live in
i was gonna say kudos 2 both of u, i feel like there's a wave of millennials in particular but also the oldest zoomers who are eschewing smart phones & social media & sh*t for something simpler. maybe bc idk we all watched the social dilemma or we all recognize this as a legitimate addiction with the same consequences as any other addiction
same omg. ughh
Samsung z flip says hi
Me too...I actually miss my Motorola pager.
@@papapauuuuuu ido too,let kids be kids
I did a "social media cleanse" for 6 months and Instagram and twitter look so different now.
How so and I use them to message friends but I don’t scroll on there
The same. I still have FB and IG but I don’t scroll. Don’t scroll and your life will be at peace. Like the saying “Ignorance is bliss.”
Dropped them...never been happier 🥰🥰 no more stress and fake worries
What I did was I unfollowed all the influencers, skincare brands, online shops. Now I’m in peace. I’m not seeing them anymore. Every time I see an ad popping I go back to my bank account and watch the money I saved and think how many hours I should work for replacing that money. I only shop groceries now.
I just became a Minimalist! I do it especially because I’m a spiritual healer! Can’t have any kind of wack energy around me I love being alone yo. Much respect for you Queen!
"Leg prisons... I hate wearing clothes"... Literally me. Every. Single. Day.
same and I can't take them off bc I still live with my family and share a room with my sister😒

But I’m not bold enough to be a nudist and it’s a little bit cold here
@@lovelygigi1661 you will cherish the day you move out and can roam your apartment free of your leg prisons 😂

@@butterbeer4582 thanks for your response
*I freaking love this woman. She’s iconic but also so smart and entertaining and witty. Yes youtube professor, teach the children the importance of investing!* 😩💸🤩
Main take home point: all you need in life is a boss attitude and a damn good spatula
I was craving for having more friends, more things and so on. Until I heard, "Quality over quantity. Less is more." These are the magic words I actually need.
I love how you promote minimalism instead of mainstream spending culture. Keep making being financially cool trendy as you take over the world 🌎
I became a minimalist about a decade ago. I did it at first to reduce clutter. I noticed that the more crap in my surrounding the more distracted I was from work (software engineering). I got to the point, (I'm still there) where all I had in my 4 bedroom 3.5 bath house in the Hollywood Hills was my desk, my computers, my bed, a few lamps, and my cats. I now live in a 700 sqft loft in downtown LA which sells for the same price as the house did, and own just about the same amount of stuff. Except I have a dog, instead of 2 cats.
The thing I like about minimalism the most, at least the way I do it, is that I have nothing to lose. Except my dog. I love him. Much more than I ever expected. Yes, he's an issue. Everything I care about is non-physical. If the building catches fire, Quincy and I can be out of here in minutes, all that is important in my backpack go bag, and Quincy's harness with our water. We can walk across the street and watch the place burn. All of my work lives in the cloud. I have a spare laptop and iPad in the go bag. Sig Sauer P320 (just in case it's a peaceful protest), emergency rations that we can share, (important to get emergency rations your dog can eat as well), and we're good.
The less crap you have, the less you can be hurt by losing it. The less there is to distract you.
Your story is an inspiration. Thank you for sharing.
This is a lot of trauma you need to unpack
“And I am my own best friend” that’s my favorite motto now! 😬
Lol the avoid everyone speaks to my inner soul introverts know how it goes.
Saved so much $$ doing this. I'm buying my first rental property by avoiding people :D
@@soiviflute5947 haha congrats

Because President Stamps believes in free education 😭
I get to save money 😭😭

“You look like Zoe Saldana if I had a couple of shots and turned my head sideways” giiiiirl 😂😂

You just seem like someone who actually knows what they want. Decisive. There for you have a better than average chance of living well with minimalism .I admire your lifestyle.
Wake up every morning around 6am without an alarm? Are we surprised her channel grew so fast? She’s clearly a superhuman...
it's odd, but I've always gotten up early without an alarm
@@KellyStamps 😅 not you replying to my comment from 5 months ago after I’ve been thinking of you all day (not weird, just saw your last video and been fangirling lmaoo). I tried to sleep early and wake up around 6 this morning and failed miserably, getting out of bed at 8 and almost sending myself to school late. A morning / night time routine for the struggling stampede members? 🥺
Completely agree with your point about becoming financially independent from UA-cam and being able to do it solely as a hobby!
"I am my own best friend"
YES.
I don't like myself enough to accomplish this lmao.
@You can't leave this empty wow you've made good efforts at least. Do you think it was a waste or are you better off with that information you attained over time ?
How do you self improve now ?
I see u on anncy twinkle lmao
Thank you dear, finally somebody made being alone cool as hell. People need to get into themselves. Amen young lady, you are helping the world. Being alone is not a curse. Full speed ahead dear.
A cat is great company or a dog if you like animals
I've had to phase people out of my life when they influenced me to spend more than what was good for me lol
Keep doing what works for you! love it
That is wonderful
I had that happen too. So called friends needed me to spend all my money to be friends with them. Now I have no friends.
Stop walking out in the dark all by yourself sis. Be careful out there. I'm not trying to make you be afraid....just be careful.
I'm highkey turning into both my grans, I keep all my reciept in one envelope for the month. They usually keep em just incase they need to return sumting. But I started to review them to see how I be spending my mula, and know how much tings cost😅
You should get yourself a spreadsheet going for visualization and quick reference
OK I NEED A FLIP PHONE. Smartphones take up all of my time, im wasting my life, slowly withering away 👀
*withering away*
Honestly
omg yes!! this!! before. everything was used for its own purpose. telephones, tv, etc etc it had a specific utility. now everything is so accesible general and ambigous we use everything mindlessly!
@@jellyfishcorpseschannel01 oh hiii I found you again !! (and I totally agree)
You are right, she made me feel like I'm missing something not having a flip phone
"who you are with 10$ is who you are with 10 million" Love this!
I hope one day she does an “everything I own” video cause that would be so helpful
That video will only last a couple of minutes... 🧍🏾

I see "avoid everyone" I click
Yes. Let me grab my pen and notebook. She has the spatula.
we love to see a fellow jamaican in the chat😌
Yep haha. Always looking forward to the spatula videos lol

Kelly came to rescue our awkward alone thanksgiving day. I’ve been blessed! Thank you, Ms Stamps💖
Here, here!
Yes!
I know you said you were getting a 9-5, but honestly, I imagine you being the next major late night TV host.
yes indeed!
100%
I think she would be a natural
I love ❤️ this quote from Kelly. “I’d rather be alone than with people who make me feel alone,”.
I retired 2 years ago I am currently 48 y/o and I am living my best life. This young lady is on point kisses from Miami
"I thank god for giving me another day on this planet to be a meme." truly a sentiment to live by.
If you are interested in stock market investing the “earn your leisure” podcast has some cool episodes on UA-cam about it and weekly market breakdowns
Good to know!
I'm gonna check them out! Thank you!
Yesss, they're my fave; It's INTERESTING people discussing important topics, which is the best combination.
I listen to this podcast too!
God bless you
"Maybe its anxiety, maybe it's maybelline"
My life has been summarised
So true I save a lot being introverted and minimalist , and avoiding any toxic energy.
I'm always happy to see young black people talk about investing, and personal finance. It really is important to get a hold of that now because I highly doubt ant of us would be able to survive retirement without a nest egg to fall back on. Keep doing you Kelly! we love to see it.
Kelly is like wise sound 60 year old, throwing perals of wisdom at you, looking like a flawless 21 year old.

Good luck! :) I found her channel because I saw one of her youtube advice videos earlier this year!
@@aalegalfocus thanks, hopefully it works out if I just stick with it
I'm honored
“I am my own best friend” ✨✨
I feel you about Instagram makes you want brand new outfits and 'do up' the house every other day. What a waste of money! I deleted every form of social media I had inc whatsapp and felt so relieved. It's just me and my 2 year old I have so much more time for her now and love living a peaceful life just hearing off family and two best friends
so true
we all need to take notes from kelly bc kelly actually has her life together unlike all of us lol
Tg I was worried I wouldn’t get a professor stamp lesson on thanksgiving... but here she is serving facts with a spatula once again
“In conclusion, I’m the president of the United States. I help you, you help me.”
Yes indeed you are! I hope you can help me one day Madam president 😭
One of my favorite youtubers by far. Doesn't try to be someone she is not, funny, and smart... wish youtube content was more like this. Keep going girl, your doing great!
New subscriber here: Kelly Stamps reminds me of a young Eartha Kitt. Similar wit and cutting humor. Anyone else?
definitely, i've been thinking that for a while!
yessss
I see it
Ertha kitt and Zoe Saldana mixed lol🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Cannot lie Kelly stamps is really attractive and it's hard not to click the thumbnail.

@@THEDONSTR8Fightah76 yep Zoe with the comedic brilliance of Issa Rae in her own style.

Wise words Kelly - cutting out that financial clutter will help give you those sweet money gainz in the future
I hear you, instagram I try to avoid at least 3 times a week and it's so haaard!

Hi! Check out Kelly’s videos on starting your own UA-cam channel, it’s Great !!~Elizabeth
“Maybe it’s my anxiety or maybe it’s maybelline” lmaooo I’m screaming because that DEf struck a chord straight to my core. Bless you miss stamps. Keep doin you queen 💜
Good for you Kelly! One of the best things to be able to do, is to spend time with yourself. You’ll be surprised how many people are unable to do this, or are too frightened to be alone and at one with themselves. If you can’t bear to be alone with you, why should someone else want to spend time with you. Don’t get me wrong there is being alone, which is different from being lonely. I have great friends but equally I love spending time with ME! Wishing you all good luck on your journey and desires.x
"I am my best friend" - BRILLIANT!!
Turtle approved.

"Who you are with $10 is who you are with $10 million." So so true. Unfortunately people with bad spending habits think that more money would fix their financial problems but it'll only stay the same if you don't learn how to actually use your money
A minimalistic Queen 👑🌻
you're tempting me with purchasing a smartphone
another option is to buy a refurbished iphone!! i have had one for 2 years and it works fine, the only thing is the camera quality is slightly shittier than what you would get new. but its a small price to pay when its $400-500 AUD cheaper than the actual cost.
@Zero Fuxgiven That's how I got my iPhone 8+! I still have it but I'm hoping to get rid of it totally and use my lil flip phone lol.
@Zero Fuxgiven my bro just got a brand new Samsung, $40/month, first 3 months paid by the company. the real trick is black friday lol
Omg hi Simone!!!!!

It's refreshing to hear a successful UA-camr talk about minimalism, saving money, being frugal even though you don't have to be! Also being alone FTW
Dear Kelly,
I'm writing to appreciate how you incorporate your promotions and ads into your videos. It is a win-win for both of us.
I came across this youtuber discussing about self reset and then the next minute she starts promoting a shoe brand -_-
Idk I just love the ingenuity you put in your videos. Cheers!
My friend and I were talking about investing and stock markets, then eventually got into the topic of retiring at 30 and minimalism. I'm really thinking about starting out a minimalist life, but it can be extra challenging when living with other people
