    You need to start saying … I do have good luck, life is easy, I am grateful for all that I have…. Speak it into existence.. … more positives, focus on positives…

      If only that was how life works my friend. I’m a realist. I am not going to shine ✨ a turd 💩 and I have to keep level headed. I truthfully try to to think either positive or negative - the less I think the better. Then when things go good or south it will not matter as much. We can pat ourselves on the back for a good job but don’t need to throw a party 🎉 when good things happen. My life isn’t easy off camera 🎥 or on. I appreciate your suggestions though thank you for commenting

    this was the motivation i needed to nix one of my higher amount savings challenges. it was stressing me out and making me feel defeated because it’s meant to be finished in 2024, but tbh that’s just not happening lol. i just pulled the money out and put it in my travel envelope because being able to fly to see my dad this year is a bigger priority than making myself feel like shit over a savings challenge i saw other women flying through. i’ll get to that point soon enough, but i def need to adjust my priorities for the time being and that IS OKAYYY.

    I support the cash stuffing of low income however I can’t wrap my head around pulling money that you never had to begin with..just to put back?
    I tried it it didn’t work well.. so now I just keep the money in my acct and I include a small amount for savings….i am not a 0 based budgeter….

    • @AnnCashes
      @AnnCashes 21 день тому

      Cash emergency funds work well when there is banking troubles. People have been locked out of their money on some of these failing banks. If I use cash for gas I don't have to care if some jerk put a skimmer on the gas pump keypad. Lots of reasons I love cash!

  • @terryhenderson424
    @terryhenderson424 22 дні тому

    Not particularly cash budgeters but we have gone through some lean and also some very lean times. I do remember a candle light Valentines dinner with a $1 McDonald's burger each; and that burger was an earing out treat. I do remember a period of bare bones budgeting and each time we thought we were bare bones, we had to get a little leaner yet. So yes, I understand reassessing, re directing, re prioritizing, and rebudgeting.

I tried working full time but every job I got, I would get fired from because I would have to leave to take care of her and I would do it again in an instant. She has the kindest soul. She is an empath. What she lacks in social skills, she makes up for in her ability to make people smile.

    You are playing it SMART by focusing on your Emergency Savings first! I focused 1st on mine, along with monthly bills and was finally able to get a head! After 5 years, I have gotten mine to to a little over $5,000.00. I put it into a savings account and now drawing interest. It's harder to get to but if needed I can do it within a couple of days. Now, I'm working on getting a month ahead but have a couple of small challenges and finally was able to add another $100 to savings... I'm on disability so don't receive much but every penny counts, which, I have a change jar that counts my change and I'm up to almost $40.00 there so I can always cash that in.... Keep your head up and just do you!!!!
