    I took this survey when I was in grad school my result was the ISTJ and I think those savings challenges work well for me! Definitely interesting to know there are different challenges for different personality types.

    I've saved just over $6,000 this year so far. I've use the same income numbers for almost 10 years. Extra from pay increases over the years I put toward savings/sinking funds. I've also become addicted to saving and have a rule that I have to wait 30 days to make extra purchases and usually end up not needing whatever I thought I couldn't live without.

    Few years back I saved the most money I ever saved. I opened a bank account at a walmart bank , savings account only. I would do all my shopping there and only during bank hours. Every time I would check out I would deposit the amount on the receipt to my savings. If for whatever reason I was low on money I would think really hard about what I bought because I knew I have to deposit the same in to the bank. After about a month I was very frugal with buying wants. So I also started doing the "zero out challenge" what ever money I had the day b4 payday I would fill up my tank and then deposit all but $20.00 dollars in to my savings.

    The spend a little to make the saving money easier to track, more fun, etc is in reality not going to keep ppl from saving any real amount & actually I bet keeps ppl saving more... (some ppl🙄), honestly If buying that $5 or less savings challenge is what makes it so you can’t save anything, then there are bigger issues.
    Woot woot 🙌 to this video🔥. ❤️🖤
    Maybe I am a steward/analytical mix🤔 Loved the screen in screen & seeing the lil’ Ro & her “lifing” tee, 😻

    That's kinda what I did the last couple weeks. I budget $75 per week for groceries and wound up spending $96. Got paid 3 days later and kept an extra $100 as buffer in the bank. My boyfriend wanted a pair of work boots in Academy and I told them I'll get them but his savings envelope will get emptied. He had $40 in the envelope and I contributed $20 and moved it to the savings challenge envelope. 😊

    I started doing a few mini challenges which would save me anywhere from $75-$750 and once I complete them I'll transfer the money to some of my savings categories that I wanna save for. But some people have asked me why do I even bother with the mini challenges rather than just straight out putting the money into my category envelopes to begin with. Its hard to make them understand why lol

    Hey I love your video, It took me all yr lol but Ive finally figured out that if I dont put money away in a savings challenge I cant seem to save it lol so instead of just putting a chunk of money away Ive divide it up into savings challenges that way I should be able to save something, at the start of the yr I worked out that I would have $5000 saved up by now and I have just under $400 but I decided this yr was just a learning yr for me because Ive never tried to save before, videos like yours help a lot, thank you, lots of love from New Zealand 😀

    I'm low income, but in July I managed to save almost $300 to our emergency fund because I put everything except bills and some spending money for me and my kids into that savings. Trying to pump it up before my maternity leave starts in November! I guess it's sort of a no spend. I'm thinking I might do it again in September when I have 5 pays lol

    I just started for the first time the 100 envelope challenge this month. I'm currently not working. So I am funding this with my redeemed change Plus any savings from food money utilizing rebates & coupons.
    For me I decided that the timeline is not as important as finishing the challenge. So if it takes me 1 1/2 years to finish it then it takes me that long. (But I think I can compete by Dec. 2023) I think for me the pressure of having it within a time frame when I'm not working just doesn't make sense.

    Love this video. Thanks for the ideas! I'm starting now, mid-August. We have set three savings goals for our household: a trip we are taking in 8 months, building our expense categories from three months worth (now) to six months worth, and building up our emergency fund (from $1500 to $15,000). As our children move out over the next 5 years, we will start paying down our mortgage, but for now that's not a huge priority. I'm looking for ways I can keep myself motivated to find or create that extra in our budget. Sometimes it feels so very difficult. I'm going to start by selling a few things online and doing a spending freeze/pantry challenge this week. 🤞 I can do this!

    I save my change in a counting bank, it is easy and painless but sure mounts up. I had started a 50 envelope challenge but was at the point that having the funds for it wasn't working so rather than putting a specific dollar amount in each envelope, I put in what I can afford - will I have $500 at the end? Maybe or maybe not - it will be a surprise and I look forward to that unstuffing. I do a $10 Friday - once a week I set aside $10. The biggie is I do what I can afford, if I can't afford it, I give myself permission to skip what I can not do..

    Ok. Not trying to be mean or rude or anything like that. But my honesty opinion about that whole test doesn't make sense to me at all. I kind of, mostly fall in the line with all of those. So i am a little bit confused with that but i mean hey, if it works for you by taking that then you go for it. You do what is best for you. No shame or judgment coming from me here. I just simply don't understand how that all works out. I have been doing saving challenges all of my life and just simply putting money off to the side. I was never really a big shopper or spending money at all. So i never really had a lot of problems with saving money or putting money to the side and leaving it alone until i actually needed it. Also growing up, i was very very responsible with money and doing good things with money.

    Can you link your phone stand? Thank you for sharing! I’ve been using Cash Envelopes and Sinking Funds for about a year now and it’s been amazing! Love watching! I’m gonna go find you on TikTok ❤️
