    I’m frugal. I’m also a Christian that tithes, and gives to different ministries. I like having savings for the future, and emergencies. God bless you and your family.

    I’m at a juncture of wanting to quit my job to be a stay-at-home mom. My job at a toxic firm has given me extreme anxiety lately. I could pick up some side work when I want to, but be home with my sons and maintain the house. We are frugal, Aldi shoppers. My car and RV are paid for and I have zero debt personally. Husband is paying on the mortgage and we have a lot of equity. Everyday I’m asking God for a sign to let me know when to quit. Thanks for mentioning the flexibility of being unemployed in your video.

    I love the priorities especially retirement and helping the kids get a head start thru education and home ownership. ❤👍

    I was wondering how you eat carnivore ish on a frugal budget? Most of the frugal budgets use pasta, rice, beans... I am struggling to stay in our food budget. I have also enjoyed becoming more minimal the last few years. It's a blessing.

      We average about $800 for our family of 5. Once I went Carnivore the need to snack/eat constantly went away. Plus only buying eggs, dairy and meat cuts out a lot of expensive prepackaged junk foods. I think any way of eating can fit within a budget with preparation and work.

      @@lindsaysimplified Just found your channel subscribed great info!! I too am a carnivorish eater and yes meat butter bacon eggs chicken sometimes and a few veg like green beans sauerkraut pickles etc has me spending less I eat everything and am not hungry so not snacking and zero processed foods is great savings and the sale cycles are usually 6 weeks so I just stock up and freeze butter bacon burger etc. Working out great for the way I now feel and my pocket book too : )

    I appreciate your videos. I call myself more Minimal, than Minimalist. One thing that helps me not to spend too frivolously, is to think about the effort it takes me to declutter responsibly, and Ive made many mistakes in the past.

    How do you resist temptation after a period of a few months not to splurge?

    • @lindsaysimplified
      @lindsaysimplified  13 днів тому +5

      If it’s truly a need I will replace/buy the thing without guilt. Otherwise I tell myself that I have everything I need. I also use the “if it’s over $30 I wait 30 hours. If it’s over $300 I wait 30 days” rule from The Minimalists.

      I find after a while it becomes a habit, I binge watched Dave Ramsey , it was like a crash course on money management for me, keep at it, it will become habit & you will resist splurging. (But still have the odd treat or life becomes dull, this isn’t about deprivation 😊

    I'm a senior citizen, have enough money, but enjoy the subject of frugality. Not having to dress up for anyone certainly saves money. I have to watch myself, however, lest I slip into being a slob.

    Recommend you stop tithing till you save up 20% to avoid paying PMI. Then you will have more money later to give to the church.

      I am married, and he’s probably more frugal and a better saver than I am. 😆
