[@Sweet87671]

Because of budget mom and you guys I am doing a budget now! We have not spend on credit card since 5/23. That is a bigg deal for us soon much! Still it feels like going against the water, but you guys coming to my feeds in you tube are my prayers answer from asking God, (help me manage what You give us) generosity, it is a big step, It Hurts sooo much but it is probable what has keep us going through the blessing other people give to us. Also we realized how little we were giving to our church!

[@danielclark7293]

Love all of these habits! My wife and I (34 yrs old) have been doing the baby steps for about 5 years, started in debt with $50k net worth. Today it is $890k net worth and on baby step 7! On track to be baby step millionaires by mid-2025! We have 1 income, 4 young kids. Anything is possible, small good habits overtime compound to something great!

[@freedomring3022]

I use every dollar for my budgeting ... I was using an excel spreadsheet, but absolutely love using the app

[@danielaandrification]

My dad always gave me a budget for everything 😂 i am grateful for those life lesons made realize how it is 😮

[@rollakid]

My dad gave me a fixed allowance when I'm studying, no more no less. If I want to buy a toy, I got to starve myself. It didn't teach me how to work my arse off for money, but it sure did teach me how to budget every last cent I have. I appreciate that, but I feel like I have some scarcity mindset. 😅

[@iaf4454]

Well, you should take that money and make it grow.

[@iaf4454]

​@@rollakid I have also that mindset, but I combat it with the idea of "giving". I know that some percentage of my income will go for the red cross. So when I get up and I go to work I feel that I am doing something good with my money, and that makes you feel that somebody needs it, and your work is important... the scarcity mindset is hard to demolish but this helped me a lot

[@mariavittar6290]

Another one is to surround yourself with likeminded people. It is inevitably going to motivate you 🙂

[@alexpietsch7997]

George, please get in contact with Caleb Hammer so we can see you two debate back and forth for his million subscribers special

[@WetMagic]

Budgeting actually helps me so much.

[@punkbassandcovers]

I've had type 1 diabetes since age 11. I'm 41 now and I have been planning for the last 20 years to retire at 55. My life expectancy isn't going to be 80. I don't want to die at my desk. I will have the freedom to opt out of work earlier if needed. It's worth not getting Starbucks (or as we call it, Fivebucks) everyday to have options just a few years from now.

I became debt free in April after a few short months of paying it off I'm working on saving for a new car but it's not happening fast enough so I picked up a part time job. Working on buying my mom's honda 2016 hrv from her and she'll hopefully end up in a toyota fj.

Hey I found your videos a few days ago wow! My husband and I are in our mid 50’s and are now trying to get out of debt and on track seriously saving for our future. We are in the game later than some.and we can’t ever seem to stick to a plan!! Do you have advice for older people like us??? or Videos? A video like that would be awesome!

[@vintagecrazyjay4970]

Read Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey and take Financial Peace University, Dave Ramsey's program. If you follow the steps, it will help you be debt free. Worked for me! Cheers!

[@misslanapaulford]

What he said in the first 2 minutes, is exactly why I love the envelope method. Each envelope has a name and amount in big letters and u and your money know its purpose. Do basic with white office envelopes or go fancy with the packs u can't get.. Envelope are cheaper and you can move over to bigger envelopes when the piles gets bigger and you can physically see it and touch it to remind u...

[@xavier_lucas]

2022 was a hell of a year, I have made $350,000 before taxes as the sole breadwinner and head of household. This is a great starting point and I’m very aware how blessed we are to be in this position, but I’m always looking ahead on how to improve. I currently have $88K left in student loans (originally close to $150K) and very little credit card debt (less than $2K with more than $25K available). I have two auto loans totaling $170K for two electric vehicles at 5% interest. I will appreciate suggestions from anyone who has been in same shoes on how to go about them.

[@BenRovello]

You may want to start somewhere different, like the snowball method, where you focus on one loan, usually the smallest one, and direct all of your resources to pay off that loan while maintaining payments on the others.

[@westgibbs]

You want to work with a money coach or financial planner, although a financial planner will concentrate on long term, a money coach will help you with paying off all of your debts, maximize your cash flow and help you create systems and processes to direct your money proactively.

[@Stefan-xc7hp]

I have thought about this, but what is the major difference between a money coach & financial advsior?

[@westgibbs]

A financial adviser could help too to create a more holistic plan for your money. They can assist you in the creation of both short and long-term goals and then help you by giving guidance on the financial decisions and opportunities you are presented with.

[@Stefan-xc7hp]

I’ve honestly been considering going the route of an advisor, this current market is no jokes for the average retail investor, but do they really make any notable changes to a portfolio or am I better off on my own?

[@andybungert]

George your positivity is unending and amazing! I'm 33 and almost out of debt. Been doing the Ramsey stuff out of order and obviously It only makes for so much gazelle intensity. I'm happy with how far I've come but like anybody I can improve. Still haven't set a true budget and I know that I need to. Little by little day by day improving

George, George, George. As a multi lingual person, you should know that there is always a reason for things. Like the G in lasagna. Why do you think the N sounds like the Spanish ñ! It’s the G in front of it! GN Italian says the same as NY in English or Ñ in Spanish.

[@ryanphillips3540]

Another good habbit but not a money habbit is looking at spending to time ratio. This is more useful to subscriptions and services that you pay to use vs goods as you may be paying for 3 subscriptions but you only use 1 per month. Sure you may have the money to afford it and be well off but that is still money being wasted on a service that ou don't use.

[@themikehoncho]

At this point I’m convinced they right the script around the memes and clips 😂

[@javierquintero5858]

Great video with great tips , can you tell us if being generous in the ways you said can have a tax benefit or is it only for the feeling of giving

[@donnahampton3632]

Charitable contributions are tax deductible if you itemize on a Schedule A form. Most folks do not itemize because the standard deduction is high enough that it is in their favor.

[@javierquintero5858]

[@pamferolie893]

Can you do the same topic for in ur 60s or 70s. It’s never too late, right?

[@savanah1407]

Agreed! Have a family member tuning 75 soon, still able to work, barely. Rents their home, gets very low social security and no retirement savings. The only plus is no car payment or debt. But what to do at that age? It’s hard to know.

[@terricox3559]

The g in lasagne gives it the y sound. You contradicted yourself accidently George 😂

[@jehuhernandez4628]

How do you guys keep track up expenses (budgeting)? Years ago when there were more cash payment options it was easier, but now with a lot of autopayments set up, using the envelope method is hard. e.i. my wife doesn't know when she will stop by the store and buy any groceries we may run out of, etc. Still working with the envelopes or use any app, is it there any trustful app to connect all my bank accounts?

[@daniamani2799]

Great video!! I am 29 years old and my husband and I are doing many of these things currently! I have a question related to pausing on paying into retirement while in Baby Step 2. As a California music teacher who pays into CALSTRS each paycheck, and I allowed by law or state to stop paying into CALSTRS?

[@donnahampton3632]

In baby step 2, you stop contributing to any retirement accounts that you have control over. For example, you don't have control over your employer's pension fund, but you do have control over your 401K.

[@donnahampton3632]

Ramsey clip: Dave: Where did you get that number? Caller: Out of my butt? Rachel: (Dying on camera)

[@Msnanamac]

Is it 15% including whst your employer takes out for retirement? My job requires us to contribute 7% of our paycheck to retirement so i never see it. Should i put an additional 8% in the S&P500 or open a personal Roth IRA

[@maroni1257]

My struggle with the budget is this: I totally want to budget, but no matter how hard I work on my budget, unexpected expenses happen every month (I have 4 kids) and it negates my budget. I want it to work, but it ultimately ends up being a waste of my time. I've tried the app, too. I've been making good progress just being as tight as I can be, and at the end of the month, whatever's left (which is usually significant) I use for my debt snowball. Not ideal, not the way I wanted to do it, but it's working.

[@loveinthevalley]

Life runs in seasons. If you have a season of bad debt or unaffordable living, giving any money is the most terrible advice you can possibly be given. Eliminate your debt, change your life to be affordable, and then the next season you can build your habit of giving. You do not have to do these things concurrently and it's bad advice to be encouraging people to do this.

[@malone77]

Yeah I was thinking this myself. If you are in debt , 10% is a ridiculous amount to be given away. " Put your own oxygen mask on before you help anyone else"

[@loveinthevalley]

@@malone77 If we look at how economics works in regards to how much a given amount of money is worth, let's say 200 dollars. Even if it's a percentage of income, 200 dollars to someone who makes 2000 is far far more valuable than the 10% of income someone who makes 8000 is. The less you have the more important every dollar is, percentage or not.

Sleeping on a big purchase decision might not always be a good idea, particularly if the one-of-a-kind perfect for you item you are buying has strong interest from another party. In most cases this would mean houses. I would re-phrase it by allowing your heart to grow desire over the course of time for this purchase and being financially prepared for the opportunity when it comes.

[@MillionaireHouseholdFinance]

Great points Mr. Kamel! And so very true. You become a millionaire one step at a time, and it starts with forming good habits around money. Mindfulness plays a key role in reaching long-term financial goals, and of course, that starts with a clear budget.

[@tahirisaid2693]

I started out with a financial advisor called *"Rochelle Dungca Schreiber"*. Her honest approach gives me complete ownership and control of my positions, and her rates are incredibly affordable given my ROI. However, do your due diligence before contacting a financial advisor..

[@georgestone0123]

Rochelle appears to be very knowledgeable. I found her webpage and read through her resume, educational background, and qualifications, which were all very impressive. She is a fiduciary, which means she will act in my best interests. So I scheduled a call with her.

Im a single mother of 1 and after my tight budget im left with $500 to save for emergency. I have no saving in retirement of any sort. BUT if I was to “give” away 10% of my monthly 4k income….that will leave me $100 to save. Are you fukin kidding me?
