Frugality lets you maintain a balance where only your priorities come first , leading you to a secure financial future. I am avoiding debt , saving and investing around 40 percent of my income. I have a high paying engineering job, and I live upstate MN. since covid my expenses got extremely low. I have zero debt on a 7 figure portfolio, low rent and truck paid off. So i can just save. feel lucky and grateful i got a great financial planner

Not wanting too much made my life easier and I realized you can have all the money in the world and still be unsatisfied.

[@RichardTouchfaith]

Walking out of Costco or Target and not buying anything besides groceries since you realize you do not need more "stuff" is a nice experience.

[@PersonalFinance101-m7e]

Sure. Resisting the urge to splurge and sticking to just the essentials feels like a victory for both your wallet and your peace of mind.🙂

[@SkepticalMechanic-l9x]

Sometimes Protecting your capital is much more important than making money. Basically because if you lose your capital, making money is much harder. ''Missing the train'' vs. ''losing your money''. There are a lot of trains, but if your money is gone, it's over.

[@BrianMattews-i7t]

After the '08 financial crisis, I've learned not to trust corporations. Since 2020, I've been investing with a financial advisor and have had no major losses, so I'm not going back to relying solely on banks.

[@SkepticalMechanic-l9x]

Market behavior can be complex and unpredictable. Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach to whom you have used their services?

[@BrianMattews-i7t]

I'm cautious about giving specific recommendations since everyone's situation varies, but I've worked with "Melissa Elise Robinson" for years and highly recommend her. See if she meets your criteria.

[@SkepticalMechanic-l9x]

I looked up her name online and found her page. I emailed and made an appointment to talk with her. Thanks for the tip

[@stpehenswenson5517]

Great advice again. I’m myself a minimalist for about two years now. I was so surprised how much money I was blowing just on coffee everyday. I’m not rich at all but it’s nice now having a nice emergency fund and able to max out my Roth every year. Which I wasn’t able to do before.

[@TheWasup1994]

My biggest realization recently is that the more stuff I buy, the more tax I pay to the government. So spending less money on items helps me save money on tax

[@JigglyBees]

I have ADHD and I used to be a constant hoarder or 'collector' as I phrased it. Minimalism made my life so much better. Don't get me wrong, I am not a perfect minimalist. The impulsivity that comes with ADHD and the dopamine spike from new buys is hard to resist and there are times I have failed at resisting. However, after downsizing around 50%-60% of my possessions over the last 2 years, it has really helped my mental health, finances and executive function. It has massively improved my ability to say no to things and I am finding it easier to resist wanting to buy any shiny thing that draws my attention. I even managed to go on my first holiday abroad a year back which is something I was never able to do before.

[@MrAgility888]

I have a North Face jacket from 2011. It's definitely a little worn in some places but it still looks good and works well.

[@schwaemmy]

The sunglasses case as an example of minimalism did make me chuckle a bit. While of course I respect it, it doesn’t seem like the quintessential minimalist item, haha. I’m glad the world is moving in the direction of minimalism! Better for the environment, anti-consumerism, and promoting real contentment and engagement in the world. Great video :)

Me and my family become homeless I was 15 over the next few year we lost all our belongings from leaving them at places and them being stolen. Now have a decent job and salary and roof over my head, but now I can't stop buying things. Buying something new and keeping it feels good.

[@Ozzie19136]

Thank you for this. So much practical advice. Really enjoyed how you presented a quote and then explained how we can implement these principles in our lives today.

Hello from Kashmir, India.

[@VikDFW]

Buy the Champion sunglasses from Costco. I have 1 in each car. No case needed. UV Rated and made in same factories as higher priced brands. At $29 if it falls apart, throw them away.

[@soumyajeetchakrabarty6872]

(P2) I totally agree about quality over quantity , I have a couple of jackets which I purchased in my college days ( 1 Addidas & 1 puma) and they are still solid gold, I just had to repair the zip of 1 one of them. However when a couple of years back I purchased a stylish pair of shoes from an unknown brand that were cheap I had blisters on my feet, I dreaded to wear them and it soon succumbed to wear and tear. I gave this context because I wanted to share a valuable lesson that I learnt in my indulgence in materialism to my relationships, I rather have a couple of long quality meaningful relationships rather than a bunch of shallow toxic ones.

With copytrading, you could be sipping coffee on a balcony overlooking a bustling city skyline or lounging on a pristine beach, all while your investments work for you. Picture the freedom to pursue your passions, travel the world, and create lasting memories with your loved ones, all because you took the initiative to harness the power of copytrading and build the life you've always dreamed of.

Creating wealth entails establishing positive routines, I had only $78k to my name at 42 when I first woke up to this reality.

[@kenichi407]

really need to be very careful with this... we are put on this earth to LIVE... constantly saving for the rainy day, you will one day wake up and realize you're in your 70's/80's and have not really lived your life as you should have, and now it's too late to spend that money and enjoy certain things (too late to do active things and travel). lots of us have hobbies, and that's one way to find an escape from the mundane day to day. honestly, i can't imagine spending every moment looking at the my retirement tracker and arguing with my wife why she didn't buy the wholesale eggs on sale vs the organic cage free ones...

[@Obsessed.WithMoney]

💯most people are going into debt to buy things to impress others and to pretend they're successful when they're not. Yeah bro you can finance a 60k depreciating car to get girls or you can buy a beater car with cash and then save up 40k for a downpayment for a house, which is an asset that appreciates in value. Living below your means is how you get ahead financially.

I made the decision to start cryptocurrencies earlier last year at 38, just 1 year plus a few months since I started, I have grown my portfolio to over 100k, I know this isn't much but it wasn't easy to inspire myself. I really thank God for my journey so far and also connecting me with the right people.

What's the best way to kick things off? And how long until the lnvestment starts bringing in profits?

It doesn't matter how long you wait, in this markêt opportunities must come. Invest for the long haul. It's important to make informed choices rather than relying on luck or impulse. it's best to partnēr with an advisor.

A tip I learned years ago is to pack only one pair of underwear and just use the flip technique. Just keep flipping them every day inside out and then flip them back to normal the next day and it saves room when you pack and you only have to wash 1-2 pairs.

The market's volatility makes DIY dangerous. You do not need to identify the next NVDA to be successful in investing. Choose top-tier ETFs, dividend aristocrats, and a trusted advisor. I turned $180k into $200k in quarterly dividends, which is an exciting milestone
