My family is letting me stay at home after graduation to save and invest most of my income I have no loans either. I am paying $500 a month but I also will help them when they need me they are retirees. This doesn’t mean I won’t treat myself or my family. I will do so with moderation.

"Buy the fancy boots", I wonder if he's referring to the "Sam Vimes Boots" theory. In any case I agree with the buy it for life theory. I spend so little on tools, clothing, electronics, etc because when I do buy I get well built items. And they aren't necessarily the most expensive items. For me the "spend more when using credit cards" bit doesn't work. If I have cash it's money I've taken out of savings and I just feel like it's ok to spend it because I know I have it - it's right here in my hand. If I'm pulling out the plastic though I know that's money that's going to have to come out of the bank account or I'll (shudder) have to pay interest. I'm way more frugal with a card than I am with cash. I can go months without putting anything but absolute necessities on the card but if I've got a few hundred in cash every shiny thing I see is a temptation.

We raised our family of 6 making a cozy comfy home using all second hand sold rock maple furniture. Style is very un-IKEA - and the warmth of natural wood makes home feel like … well Home! Our dining room set complete with 8 chairs, 4 table leaves, a buffet and a sideboard cost $275. at Salvation Army has welcomed our kids and grandkids every Thanksgiving for the past 40 years. We supported the SA programs, gave longer life to beautiful furniture to save it from dumpsters, while enjoying a budget saving bargain that has served happy memories and delicious food since 1989.

1:51 I disagree that "Buy it for Life" is more frugal. Occasionally, it can be, but often it's not. The facts are - styles change, our weight fluctuates, technology improves. Think of that 8-track tape player you bought in the 70's, or that super-durable Commodore 64, or the polyester leisure suit. They might still be "as good as new" - but do you still use or want them? I prefer to look at every purchase as a rental. This will cost X dollars - divided by this will last Y years- and calculate the cost of using an item for the number of years it will last -and the number of years I'll actually *USE* it. And, sadly, the grandkids don't want to inherit most of your stuff you bought that still hasn't broken - even that great lime green polyester leisure suit.

I agree that buying quality products is a good saving strategy because you don't need to replace quality things for years to come. I have a yearly budget for clothes and shoes. If I don't spend it, it rolls over into the next year. That's how I was able to afford a Canada Goose coat, which keeps me super warm and comes with a lifetime warranty.

will never agree to #7. i get no discount for paying cash. i ask. i want to break even on the 2-3% mark up stores bake into thier prices because of merchant/ card fees. using my 3% cash back card at least zeroes out the ''hidden fee''.

George, you need to find another town to pick on besides Branson! It’s a beautiful place to live with a low cost of living, and the tourism here helps support my family. Yeah, it’s not for everyone, but neither is Las Vegas. Come visit, George, instead of Branson bashing! Thanks 😊.

7:00 yes you will spend more using a credit card, but if you do zero dollar budgeting and actually stick to the budget, this tip is moot. As you point out, it requires discipline, but thats why you budget. If you have discipline and stick to your budget, you can beat the credit cards system and reap the benefits. BUT, its not for everyone, so I get why the Ramsey team recommends doing away with credit cards because most ppl don't have that level of self-control.

We didn't pay cash for our new fridge and floors throughout the house. Who shows up at a store with more than $16K in cash to pay for it?... We swiped our credit card and paid off the full amount at the end of the month. There is nothing wrong with not paying cash if you actually have the money.

@yvonnsterr4 ай бұрын
I think what they mean is you only pay for it if you have the actual funds in your account, not necessarily physical cash. Like how paying in cash for a house doesn’t mean showing up with stacks of money but you can wire transfer that amount immediately.

I have a checking account that I transfer to the same amount I spend on my credit card. I use it to pay the credit card after that way I don't spend money I don't have. I only use the credit card for my bills because the credit card gives me 5% back on recurring payments. It pays me 27 a month 7:34

10000000% I was living paycheck to paycheck and roughly $50,000 in credit card debt. Finally I had enough. I sold my “fancy” Dodge Challenger and paid off all my credit cards after a few months. Now my wife and I live at 28 and 32 with a net worth of just over $500,000. We have a paid off car and focusing on eliminating the mortgage

Only thing I want to note regarding interest - you are taxed at a higher rate for every penny you earn on interest. So keep that in mind.

A sinking fund, in my mind, is the same as making payments. You just make payments for an item before you buy it, and you pay less for it be sure you don't pay interest on credit card payments.
