    So true and needed this. I am gearing up to start 2025 with a plan. Today during my lunch I sat down to write down my credit cards , balances and interest rates. This week I have cash in my wallet and not using my debit card.

    Reflecting back on a previous video and something you mentioned in this one, be honest about your spending. For us the grocery spending was too much, and I really justified it by reasoning it is food. Too much junk in those purchases, cleaned that up! Also something to add, be sure you know what is included in things you are paying for, I recently discovered a subscription channel we had (were paying for) was already included in our cable, Yes we were paying for something we were already paying for. Cost us about 50.00 before I realized it.
    Great video, thank you.

    Loved the video! Y’all are outstanding. Love all the tips and advice. We have paid off 3 credit cards in the last 3 weeks. We have goals that are reachable. We are wanting to purchase the land next door once it goes up for sale. They are clearing it now! We’ve been making extra money to pay off these debts. Thank y’all so much. Love all y’all’s videos

    I've saved $10K and I'm considered below poverty line. I'm Rich with solutions.$10 10lbs beans, a bag last .5 week. Fun to Cook using my rocket stove and 420. I'll listen to the radio I recharge my radio with solar.
    I have luxury, circle K coffee and Mt dew~$5 a day. That's a great way to get satisfaction for less. Excellent coffee I love it so much I had my back to the wall in front the store and just enjoying the perfectly mixed coffee, I had people ask if I was ok. Yup 👍🏻 great coffee should be appreciated and I know it's hard to find your perfect mix .

    12:18 I used retirement fund to pay off house and cash for car. Used rest to cover medical expenses related to kidney failure/ transplant. I am currently stoney broke because I wanted to pay house taxes. I volunteer 3 days a week at charity bookstore and want to return to charity garden that grows veg for food bank. I am currently earing from my stash. (Oatmeal, cornmeal, canned veg, pasta, rice, beans,self canned chicken 2022, etc.
    What advise do you have for me? My expectations are limited to "keeping Henry (my kidney transplant) happy" so he keeps me alive. I'd just like to afford to go to a matinee movie once in a while.

    In the past every activity will cost you money, save or make you money or will cost you nearly nothing. Nowadays a new activity is delaying pay for that activity over time. I try to focus on saving or making money and things that cost nearly nothing. Then when you look at a list of things to do, try to move the things that save money or make you money to the top of the list. Some things you do will never make money but it's a mind set that I am talking about.

    I know a few people who say that they are poor but are not. They are simply poor at managing money yet confuse the two types of “poor” A change in mindset is what they need. One of these people had a career in the public sector, and with a union too,, so his salary and now pension are easily available for all to see for a person with that career.

    Tempted to turn off water sewer and garbage since they charged me $49 for it. They won't give me power back might as well just buy all my water from the filter machine. I'm alone and can't justify paying $25 a month for garbage just me come on ! $600 a year for this.

    Idea for video, joint or separate accounts like ownership, bank accounts, bills like utilities and other things in your finances. It was a mistake to leave electric ⚡💡 bills in my mother's name after she died. If i die i want my things all, in my name for easy access to my sister when I go. I also signed over my banking to her with my death certificate.

      Sinking funds may help ease the big budget expenditures. I set aside money each month for my property and school taxes and home and car insurance. It’s a lot, frankly, but I’m more than ready when these bills come due.

      @beth3535 It's comical when they say I am below the poverty line I was a teen on my own. I worked at Pizza Hut not because of the money because I got to bring home the unused personal pan pizzas from lunch. If it wasn't for that I would have starved to death because we know these cheap motherfauther's don't tip. Just a way to pay your help below minwage.
