Awww Ashley! I just cried with you at the end of your video because I too know what it is like to lose friends. It’s crazy. I never thought I could lose friends over things like money and status, but Satan uses those things unfortunately to drive wedges between people. I guess what hurt me the most was when I lost friends when my twins were born so early at only 24 weeks. We were in the NICU for 3 and half months and friends I never thought I would lose just dropped off the planet. I still hurt over the loss of those relationships, but I try to remind myself that it’s their loss that they don’t care to know me and my miracles. You’re right. True friends will love you at your worst, as well as your best. I would love some day to meet you and your family. I have so much respect for you and your husband. Keep up the great work here on KZbin! The Lord is proud of your testimony. 💜

We swear by a lot of Dave Ramsey's tips, as well as Suzie Orman. We're a two income household and STILL live off of 1 income! Bought our house on one, 1 car note (almost paid off), no credit cards (but all active), 8-10 months reserve, give tithes and offerings to our church, etc. It's definitely strict but it feels good telling those home goods, TJ Maxx associates NO when they ask about getting their card to "save" 10%. LOL Now I still get my nails done, drink Starbucks, have cable, and a lot of the things you guys don't, but you have to do what works for your family. :) Great video guys!

I only made 1390 a month at my job, but it cost us 500.00 a month for me to even be at work with childcare cost, not to mention gas. For the past 3 weeks, I have viewed a TON of videos regarding saving, and making money in odd ways, and you guys have really inspired me that this is possible. I know that I am lacking in some of the income I earned, but I have also learned that with effort, and determination I can cut cost so I dont need to worry that I lost income. Thank you very much.

Growing up I saw my patents worry and fight over money all the time and its not something I will ever let my kids see. It's harder the older my kids get (11, 7, and 5. I'm 30) because they want more expensive things but I try to steer them from that. On the plus side I bought my own house 3 months before my 30th birthday by myself.

This is great Ashley! Y'all are a great example. Love those examples of making money :) My hubby and I set out to pay off our house so I could stay at home with our kids. We ended up beating our goal of paying off the house in 7.5 years (we had a 15 yr mortgage) down to 33 months! It was a crazy 33 months but we budgeted like crazy and used a lot of Dave Ramsey's methods to do it. My hubby is a teacher so it was a must that we paid it off asap. I was a teacher too during that time so our income was/is low. I love listening to Dave...it for sure fires me up to keep motivated!

Please don’t apologize for getting emotional. We’ve lost friends along the way and it still hurts. I’m sorry you went through that. 🤗 FPU is definitely life changing and works not just in the finances but in all aspects of your life not. It was a long but rewarding journey for me and my hubby getting out of debt while he was out of a job and I was supporting the 3 of us on a massage therapist income which is not a lot at all. We went through living in our friend’s basement to being out of debt and now living in a duplex with a big, beautiful backyard for our girls and fur babies. The only debt we have is our minivan(yes I am a minivan mom lol 😜) and we’re saving for our forever home. We’re so thankful and blessed for fpu and how much it’s helped us. It strengthened our marriage too. I love how beautiful your relationship is with Chase, you both are a true team and congrats on being debt free.

We are debt free (again!) and it feels amazing! I have done a lot of things you have done to make extra cash (except collect golf balls, haha). I also buy items at thrift stores and resell them; it's how we paid to renovate our bathroom last summer! I wish I could be a SAHM, but unfortunately I am the one who works in our household and we need our health insurance. I'd give anything to stay at home with my daughter!

You are so relatable and don’t try to put on false pretenses. It allowed us to connect to you bc money doesn’t just involve acquiring things or letting go of things. It also shows you an “inventory” of your friends and family

Thank you so much for introducing me to Dave Ramsey. He is so motivating and I’m going to try it with our family. When you cut out a lot of the things you don’t need, how much of a budget would you give yourself and husband for spending money or money for them to go do something? I know you said 100 a month. But was that in the beginning of the process? Also, was it hard around the holidays to save? Can you do a video on how to sort your envelopes. Like for your tags and so on. That’s a awesome great idea to have envelopes to stay organized :)
@TilVacuumDoUsPart6 жыл бұрын
When we were paying off debt there was zero fun money. Everything we made went to debt so we could fly through that step. I wanted to get through it quickly as possible. Once we had zero debt and our 3-6 months savings is when I starting taking fun money. Others have asked about the envelope system as well so I’ll figure out how to incorporate it into a video!
