When the pandemic hit back in 2020 I had only 3k in emergency funds and this was scary. Thank God for work from home. I looked into my spending habits. Living in an apartment I stopped using the washer and driers. Started washing my laundry and drying it in my apart on a clothing rack. Cooked all my meals. Thank God malls were closed. I refused to shop on line. Canceled every subscription. By the end of 2020 I had saved 25k. I kept up with the savings even when things opened up I was so used to my inexpensive was of living. I have saved 30K. I keep it going.
Wow!🏆There are small "portable" washers, some more automatic than others. They hook up to your regular faucet and your regular electric plugs. Clothes come out exceptional dry, I was surprised. Have an indoor laundry rack. Also if your apartment has a no clothesline-rule, you can just clothespin smaller items to the back of a lawn chair :)
1. Know where you stand 2. Check your lifestyle 3. Set clear goals 4. Create a budget 5. Create an emergency fund 6. Make a plan to pay off your debt 7. It's okay to start small/start as you can
Thank you! In my mid 30s, assessing my life, my spending habits. I've only now realized I've done nothing for my self but make the rich richer. No lottery jack pot here.
I just now discovered this channel. I LOVE the way you present the information. You are very composed and approach the subject very technical and rational. No screaming, stupid jokes or ‘trying to be interesting’. This is a fresh wind on UA-cam. I wish you the best and keep the content coming. And as a bonus……SHE WEARS DECENT AND COVERING CLOTHES AND DOES NOT OVERDO THE MAKEUP 😍😍……..HENCE……THIS WOMEN IS ABOUT CONTENT ONLY
I subscribed to your channel. I'm going to use your channel as a baseline regarding my goal of $10,000 by the end of 2022. I'm a 60 year old male starting from scratch and I really enjoy your simple tips, the clarity of your voice and the way you explain. I'm going to check out your budget planners and merch. Thank you for your teachings
It's okay to save small amount of money each paycheck.. That is what I did to create my emergency fund... I feeling more confident..saving just little money each month.
Your channel came through my feed and wise advice young lady. I'm an old lady who has lived this for decades and it works. My hubby and I will come alongside people who are struggling and many who live below the poverty line. And those who sacrificed and worked their fingers to the bone (for a while the bone part.) Are the ones who transformed their lives. So I appreciate you giving me another tool to share. Last comment for the young, look for a wise older woman, couple who want to pass on their wisdom and come alongside you. We've done stupid and have learned many lessons. God's Word has a lot to say about finances and it works.
As informative and insightful as this video is some people have NO idea what a 'basic necessity' actually IS. For instance I know a few women who will valet park no matter what, hair appointments, manicures and pedicures, happy hour, don't even start with Starbucks, buying prepared foods as opposed 2 cooking from scratch, driving an extra 30 miles or more 2 run errands as opposed 2 creating a plan to save on gas. The list is just endless. I've said all of that 2 say this. Sometimes the first step 4 specific persons is 2 sit down with a pragmatic realist. They r experts at helping find ways 2 cut back or save money. They can also assess a need from a want objectively. Great content!
I know a ton of men who spend hundreds of dollars on sport event tickets, thousands on new or expensive cars, sometimes multiple cars, and fishing boats and stuff. I agree that a lot of people don't understand what a "basic necessity" actually is.
Nice video. I found that by living a simple, yet enjoyable life will result in a steady stream of savings. Examples: Watch movies at home instead of in theaters. Or, better yet, get out of the house/apt and take a walk and mingle with humanity and enjoy the outdoors and watch a sunset; Make your own coffee, or get it at McDonald's instead of Starbucks; dress simply and tastefully instead of wearing expensive clothing brands, as generic clothing will keep you just as warm and comfortable as the expensive clothes. Eat more at home healthily and cut down on junk food and expensive meals at overrated restaurants. And the lists goes on and on. Where it stops depends on how much you want to save. The beauty of these suggestions is that you don't have to do without, but just better choices.
A 3 year old video came across my feed at the right time. Good advice. Sell items I'm not using/closet clean out and it is ok to start small. New subscriber here!
If you don't admit that you have a spending problem none of this steps will help you. People live way beyond their means! They eat out, shop carelessly, feel entitled, have no common sense about spending, don't save for emergencies, take vacations by charging their credit cards. If they decide to receive money management counseling than they may improve. Their are several reasons why people spend, it could be self soothing, grief, loneliness, depression etc.
@@karlabritfeld7104 that's a little simplistic. People go into debt for different reasons. Like unexpected medical bills or divorce. Everybody's story is different.
I love that YT is recommending this video at this time of the year and I’ll ensure to share it! Stunning video and I can definitely applying even with savings ❤️
Im 54 and have no savings and every time I save a little I have to use it for my car repairs. Thank GOD HE ALWAYS makes my way to fix my car. Even if it was the couple of hundred I saved and I'm back to ZERO in my savings
Solid information as per usual! Thank you for sharing!! 🙌🏾 P.S. I really like your informative, friendly yet straightforward delivery. Your camera presence is really great!
I truly needed to hear this video today. It's simply and right to the point not overwhelming. I'm so glad I came across it. I'm going to look for more of your videos. I'm ready to get it together. Thank you so much
God bless you, Clever Girl Finance. I just came across your channel and immediately was blessed. You're very clear in your presentation. This was exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you and have a blessed day.
can also be from just not having a job that pays enough salary to cover your expenses, so you use every drop of income to survive, eat, bills...etc. caring for an elderly parent/family member that has suddenly had a health change and medical cost or rest home/care facility cost is expensive, and they did not have any savings or did not prepare for retirement.
Hallo Ich finde deinen Kanal super. Finanzielle Aufklärung ist so wichtig, gerade jetzt in dieser harten Zeit. Vielen Dank. Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland
I have savings I cannot touch and a 2k overdraft for emergency use only. I get my car serviced to avoid any sort of mechanical issue and visit the dentist for checkups. I learned the hard way about my car and teeth, as they contributed to some of my debts. I took out a loan to consolidate the debts, and once this is paid off, I will start another savings account. I don't shop and avoid the malls. I will check the opportunity and thrift shops first to replace things when they are worn out and I buy quality items on sale or marketplace. Recently started upcycling furniture as a hobby and then realised I can make money on the side doing up small pieces to resell. I like the idea of setting a goal to save 10k in a year so that is the next video I am going to watch.
@@Clevergirlfinance A few years ago, I got help from a budget advisor who works for the Salvation Army- He saw so many people in horrible situations, debt in the tens of thousands and no way out of it. He taught a seminar style where he taught us about how credit works, how to reduce debt by snowballing smaller debts and personal loans from friends were paid back first. Then he gave us a formula to stick to. 70% of income on living costs (not just rent) then 20% on debt reduction 10% savings. He also told us if your rent is too expensive, downsize or get boarders. I started an Airbnb with a spare room and charged a good nightly rate. He also told us that no church should ask for tithes from people live at below the breadline level of poverty and that you don't need to explain or feel guilty for saying no. They should be helping you in the first instance.
Will do me me good. Actually my husband gets bonuses, does extra work and keeps it all that for himself. I struggle to keep up with the credit card bills, and payments for two new vehicles, a 12,000 dollar lawn mower to cut 2 acres, the monthly payment for a rotting falling apart house and other none family purchases.
It's very nice video. Thank you so much. Yes I agree, the emergency fund is very important. Bec. we need a cash flow in whatever emergency situation. Because not all in the institution will accept a credit card to pay especially in paying taxes in govt. or the renewal of my driver's licence or car registration annually. Better be ready, our energency fund than nothing to save, even just 50$ every pay check. It's has a saying one million dollars can't be completed if it's missing of one dollar bill. This is how I appreciate the value of saving.
Pls create a video on selling. I've never done this and the thought of this process makes me very uncomfortable. Thank you for this presentation; I thought it was comprehensive and very well done.
What would u classify as Net worth? What if you own nothing? Except rudimentary items, for example laptops, clothes, shoes! I know judgement should not be made, but what if one is in that position! Your advice are succinctly put. Thank u!
Congratulations Bola sis I join your awesome Channel . This video is insightful thank you for saying everything as it should, this gave me h❤️pe somehow....
Thanks for great information. What about saving for a vacation while being in debt ? Would it be smart to go on vacation or use the savings and pay off a debt ?
I assessed my life style and I don’t live above my needs.I am already downsized in every area. I have no debt. I have a budget that allows me to pay all my bills with no money to save. $1000 to save seems like a joke. I don’t even go out or have a social life. I have no small amounts to save.This seems unrealistic for someone in my situation. Please help,
@@riseupbloom9836hello, I downsized …my rent is the lowest that it can be for the market. I also am blessed to live in a safe environment for such low rent. I just have nothing to be frugal with. All my income goes to bills, I don’t eat out, i don’t go out.. unless where I’m going is free. I don’t shop for extra items, just food, laundry and gas. I have one credit card that I barely use.
@ReneetrustsGod hello, it sounds like you’ve done everything YOU know you can do and you’ve done a good job doing that. I emphasize you because you are limited, as we all our by what I call “ The tint of our window” meaning you can’t see (options) beyond what you’ve already done, and what you think you can or cannot do. I called that being stuck or at least feeling stuck. And that doesn’t feel good. I observe two things. First, you ended your initial comment with “Please Help” which is your obvious cry for help, and second, I can’t help but notice your moniker, Renee trust God. So I’m assuming ( not good to do ,I know ) and willing to err on the side that you are a woman of faith. With that being said, it appears that your faith is what you need to call upon to get you unstuck . Faith to believe that you were not meant to live just to survive and pay your bills, faith to believe that there is an option beyond what you see or think. Faith to believe that God has a door that is just for you to open that can change your life. I share this from the “Tint of My Window” having been stuck at different times in my 64.5 years of a blessed life ( that has included struggle), and God presented options I did know or imagine that changed my life. I say all of this because I don’t know you but would want you to thrive and not just survive in your life. I believe that is what you want for yourself. ❤️
I don't hv any credit 💳 card. I try to save my money for bad times. By seeing everyone having credit card , My desire to take one credit card was at high but somehow I managed to control my desire that it is not a good thing .
Credit Unions are much better than banks for general purposes but ideally, for an emergency fund, I’d recommend a high yield savings account, wherever that might be. Right now, I keep mine in an Ally high-yield saving account. If you can find a credit union that offers a high-yield account, then I’d say you are golden.
look for a place you can lease, leasing can cheaper than renting, look at all the unnecessary things you are getting, most of us not making as much as you and we are still saving, if you eat out more than eating at home, cook more. Clothes go on sale all the time, look in clearance first, if you don't need it don't buy. simple shift in habits will guarantee you will make it. good luck or reach out to me if you are struggling.
When the pandemic hit back in 2020 I had only 3k in emergency funds and this was scary. Thank God for work from home. I looked into my spending habits. Living in an apartment I stopped using the washer and driers. Started washing my laundry and drying it in my apart on a clothing rack. Cooked all my meals. Thank God malls were closed.
