Thank you for all your guidance. I love you for your down to earth and honest advice. I can totally relate to everything you have said. Especially about spoiling children as this is what got me into debt. I’ve cleared all my debt now but it took me 10 years. 😊

Love your videos guys! I recently made a move by downgrading my car and purchasing an older one at a much affordable price. The expenses associated with owning a Mercedes whenever something went wrong is silly, the repair costs were far from ideal.

Any chance of an episode of purchasing 'off-plan' in up-and-coming areas outside of London. I remeber when my Uncle sold his property in West Ealing approximately 15 years ago, 3B 1B, and moved to Hayes and purchased a semi-detached with 3B 2B for less than 150,000 sterling and now that has tripled in price. His Adult Chlldren and now living in areas past Hayes and need more money to get on the property ladder...

Absolutely cracking video. Really makes you look at your decisions both good and bad. I brought my house in Wales before the Severn Bridge stopped charging, it was far less appealing then, this decision has now massively benefitted me after it became free. Though I don't like where I live. Financially it was a really good move. Compare that to buying in Bristol and it would have been far more of a struggle. Buying smart.

Great video. Thank you Mary and Ken. Regarding University I was working full time and I was studying part time in the evening with Birkbeck University. They even split my payment for 11 instalments per year with no intrest. It was worth it. Thank you for a great work you are doing for us.

Number 3 is my favourite one. As Ken and Mary said, don't delay investing, get into it ASAP. I also like number 7, I took out a children's S&S ISA for my nieces, their portfolio is doing really well.

It is interesting how counter cultural this is. Especially moving jobs. My husband has moved jobs a lot and retrained into coding when his job was going during covid. I am so grateful that he hasnt done the norm. I struggle with this I actually want a permanent job as I love teaching!! But maybe I need to think more flexible about my skills...

Thinking the norm holds people back in my experience. Doing counter cultural things require some bravery but it usually pays off.

Chasing money at the expense of relationships...this one is hard because a lot of relationships suffer from differences in how couples approach money. I know its not same as chasing money, but sometimes one person wants to splurge on experiences, travel abroad, take a a mortgage on a much bigger house and live their best life...while the other wants to save or invest more and hence there a tendency to work harder and longer to get more money because they dont want to say no to everything their spouse wants. Obviously this is where setting goals and making a budget as a couple helps...as it can show both parties where their money is going and help to make better financial decisions. Great content as usual guys.
@TheHumblePenny Жыл бұрын
This is real! We should make a video on this topic. What would you title a video like that?
@KraneD Жыл бұрын
Why having more money doesn't always make you happy 😁... like you literally wake up 10 years later with three or ten times your take home pay but not recognizing your spouse anymore, if you still have one...cos you put chasing the bag to afford bigger shinier things over aligning your goals and money to build the life you want.

10k for a flashy car? Can’t be flashy you will need to x that by 4 at least I pile advise to now hold on to car until end of Nov then trade in for same value with newer plate less mileage and in mean time up your bargaining skills ! Car sales are more desperate to accept in June and dec so research now for what you want , fire in Nov Spoiling kids is just bad lazy parenting , anything for an easy life

Not having life and health insurance

I am guilty only if no. 10. Probably 8 and 9 would be a problem at some point, but until now, I don't think it has been. I have a new job and I already now that I will get something better the moment the opportunity appears. And I come from a background where people don't get offended if you focus on your career, because that means that you will be able to help your family, fix your home and in the end, help everybody one way or the other.
