    Medical expenses, young people usually don't budget for that but when time comes bills go high and end up with important debt, so a medical fund is a good idea to take in consideration when being a young budgetter. Great video Emily!

    This gives me so much motivation! We didn't think too smart and racked up too much debt, which we are now trying hard to get rid of. We have goals and our biggest one is we'd love to move out of FL and up a bit further North, but there's a lot between now and then to get finished for us to get there.

    I love your mindset when it comes to Eli. I know a lot of people can be very limited in their minds when they have children with disabilities. My husband for example is very scared of us ever having a child with disabilities. He grew up with HALF his family having disabilities. He also came from a very poor family. So the experience pretty much traumatized him. But I always remind him that no matter what. Our kids are ours, and how we live and raise them will never be the same as our parents ❤

    • @theaestheticdollar
      @theaestheticdollar  8 місяців тому +2

      Yes, exactly! There are a lot of different types of emotions that come with it, but anytime I think of Eli, I always find myself smiling and thinking how much of a blessing he is to our family and then I wouldn’t change one thing about him 🥰

    Also I can relate to finding out about Eli’s diagnosis through noticing sensory issues. My 7 year old (almost 8) is autistic, and his biggest struggles are sensory issues and emotions (amongst other things). But he’s definitely one of a kind and I’m so lucky to have him 🥰

    I just discovered your channel and I absolutely love your aesthetic❤. I’ve wanted to try cash stuffing myself but looking for envelopes has been a nightmare since most etsy stores have a huge shipping cost. Im from Estonia btw, that’s why. Also havent noticed anybody else having such business here. I’m actually thinking of starting this trend here with making and selling some envelopes but it seems really scary because Estonia is so into digital world. Do you think it would be a good idea to invest and try?

    my sister has a darling son who is autistic. She started a sinking fund many years ago, when he was around 3; he is 30 now, so in case she or her husband passed he would have resources and not burden his siblings financially. She says is the best decision she has ever made and gives her peace of mind.
