Cash Envelope System for Beginners | How to Start Budgeting | Budget for Beginners

[@Beautyforashes613_]

It’s very true!!! Having physical money that you can actually see and feel, makes a huge difference. Not only does it hurt more to give it away, but when u see your cash stacking, you feel richer.

[@MonetsMoney]

Yes this is so true! Thank you ❤️

[@sharonsobolewski3707]

YES EXACTLY THE IDEA I LOVE SEEINT ALL THIS CASH

[@hankyspanky4605]

I agree but I've grown up with my dad teaching me that money sitting is money wasted. Almost every penny of mine is invested in things like stocks and ways to make it grow. so far, it has been an insane turnout over the years. You let it sit and forget about it and the growth can be crazy if you invest in the right things, which really isn't hard to do. I do agree though, seeing a nice stack of cash is a great feeling

@@_zina9054 yesss same here probably male a little envelope for it

[@daimarieblair167]

What I do, is since that all my bills come directly out of my account I calculate all of my monthly bills, add them all up and I normally add an additional $20 to the total just in case something is a tad more, and then I leave that in my bank account. I withdraw my savings, spendings, gas and food money or anything I pay with cash, and add that up. Then I disperse it between my envelopes.

[@qweenofheartz2]

Yes, I was the same way. Once you figure this method out it’s a game changer. Happy I can help 🤗

[@stine69]

I feel more people, no matter what age you are, need to see this video. 🧐And honestly… when you do have the physical money on hand, it makes a big difference in your spending habits. 🙂If the rest of those persons using just a credit (or even a debit) card, were able do this, then so many would not have so many problems trying to pay back those credit card loans (because this is what they are…) 😳with interest! Plus having a physical budget you are able to work with and see on a daily, weekly or monthly basis, really does help everyone in the long run.😇Thank you for posting; I look forward to seeing many of your future videos.🥰

[@MonetsMoney]

I agree, it was a life saver for me 😊 Thank you!

This is literally what I need, saved it to my private playlist for the future. Thank you so much for uploading this, your really an angel. I'm currently studying for a two year course compulsory for becoming a high school teacher. My mama is a single mother, so we have first hand experienced struggling with money like many others for having one paycheck and five growing bellies to fill. She is still very worried about my decision because it wouldn't pay well as compared to other company jobs and is still trying to make me keep my options open. I understand her. Point of view, as she wants the best for me. But teaching is the only thing I would truly enjoy maybe I will have my moments of sadness with not having everything like my siblings pursuing company jobs but on the long run this will make me happier. I was so worried about how to manage the cash, especially in times like these. Medical expenses are so costly that since I will be staying with my mama till I get married, I'll save my whole paychecks for the future from now only instead of spending it on things that won't last. So glad to discover this method, hopefully it will be enough for my future family in the long run. God bless you❤️

[@MonetsMoney]

Thank you so much for sharing your story and just by reading it seems like your are passionate about teaching. If that makes you happy I think you should pursue it and the first step about money management is being mindful of your money and you have proven that you care about your finances so I am sure you will make the right decisions. Good luck on your journey and wishing you all the best. Thank you ❤️

You make more $ in New York though . You have to because if I had to pay 2000$ month I'd have to downsize ... To a cardboard box!

Best vid on Envelope Budgeting! Love how to start with True basics. Most come to this system because they are already over extended and searching for a solution. 💯❤🙂

Thank you ❤️ I’m glad it was helpful

True. The average American family does not have $500 for an emergency. Add $6,270 in credit card debt. Getting out of this situation takes an extreme behavioral change.

I need to try this. My impulsive spending wasn’t a problem when we had a lot of money but we hit rock bottom last year and now my habits are killing us financially. To the dollar store I go to get some envelopes in the morning.

Loved this video. I have been wanting to start this, and the explanation of doing just variable expenses works better for me. Thank you

I'm doing this this year. This is the method that worked for me when I was in college but my husband prefer using a credit card because of the rewards. The problem is it's easy to swipe and difficult to keep on checking every time we purchase something to track where money went. Paying in cash is a good discipline. It's easy to control the spending when you see the money is getting lesser or gone. Thank you for sharing your experience in budgeting! ❤️🙏
