    A personal tip to help save costs, regarding the eating out for lunches (maybe on work breaks etc) is batch cooking. I have a nasty habit of buying a sandwich on shift (work in retail) for my break, its about £2-£2.50 every shift im spending on that sandwich. When i do batch cook i can get 4-5 meals for less than a £1 each. Not only is it cheaper its healthier and gives me more enegery to finish the shift than a sandwich. Would highly recommend for people who do shift work!

    • @goldsilvertravel
      @goldsilvertravel Місяць тому

      Yes I know someone who does shift work who does that. Although £2 for a sandwich isn't bad - where I live the cost is £3-5

    For years I struggled with outstanding debts, bills and my children's school fees. I am a banker earning $2,500. However I spend almost $800 taking care of the family's needs and the kids. however I am starting to travel towards the end of summer. I was at a point where I wanted to give up. I came across every UA-cam channel about how to make and multiply your income through passive income. Fortunately, I had saved some money and decided to start an investment, Now I have bought my second house already, earn on a monthly through passive income and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that doesn’t believe in investing..

      When it comes to investment, diversification is key. Also have my interest set on key sectors based on performance and projected growth. do not invest all your money in a particular sector. diversifying across different sectors is the way to go..

    I always had coffee at work so didn’t have to buy. Also I used to take lunch from home and only occasionally buy at work. In addition I have always been saving to my workplace pensions and have been doing so for 30 years now since my first job. It is not hard to do these simple steps that’s why I plan to retire 10 years before state pension comes in.

      @@k3nz1e73 I'm 23 and live in a homeless hostel. Although my rent isn't much while I live here, it's the cost of food that's gone up so much. I quit smoking cigs, maybe buy bud a couple of times a month when I go to friends house. I barely have any clothes so wear the same clothes all the time and my shoes have holes in them. I've been wearing the same shoes for more than two years. Life is getting really hard and I don't have any contact with any family so no financial support from them.

      ​@aykut3158 Hopefully your situation has changed but I'd recommend focusing on changing your situation rn by seeking government-funded education opportunities, there are some charity shops that offer free/extremely low cost clothing to protect your feet and don't worry right now if you can't save anything, just focus on survival

  • @Pinkyandthebrain290

    How to save is really by absolutely cold turkey with your money. Stop any distraction or boredom spending. Take cash out for food and give yourself an allowance. Only keep in your current account the money for direct debits and open a no access savings account if you have problems with dipping in to your money. Don’t give yourself access to your money unless you’ve thought about and planned for your life or month etc. it will work. Good luck. Don’t give into temptation. Don’t use credit cards.

    if average 'change' is 1p because most items are 99p it would mean you would have to buy 1million items of just 99p to save £10k in a year
    good luck with that
    cheapest item is a 19p spaghetti hoops
    id need to buy 8100 tins of spaghetti hoops individually to save £10k
    that means each day going upto the cashier desk with one tin of hoops. 22 times a day
    sorry but that 'change' tip wont get you £10k

    Hey Matt, you're good at explaining the basics but you should warn people for the changing times. These basics can change soon. There's a high chance of a lost decade(s) with very low returns if any. Also the very likely stockmarket crash in the near future.
