How To Budget On A Low Income + Times Are Tough For EVERYONE

[@41yearoldnewdriver]

I have been saving since February. I am saving for a used vehicle. I have almost enough to buy a used SUV on my own as long as I continue to save on my own for the rest of this year.

I love that you emphasize on paying the bills first, I see a lot of folks budgeting for their spending but never bills. Life is so hard right now for all of us. Thank you for always being truthful! as far as those @sses in the comments let me at them

[@deborahjanik1116]

I agree, it feels great to pay bills first ❤️

[@haileyreign]

Just want to say I really appreciate your channel & "straight to the point" attitude. ❤ You truly help keep me motivated to get & keep my sh*t together.

i flippin love all my happy planners! 🙌🏼 always looking for budget layouts…so thank you for this!

[@AmandasBudgets]

My favorite one is the blank budget happy planner but I couldn’t afford it this year but that’s ok ✅

[@CameraQueenSLC]

Love seeing how you make your budgeting work especially the low amounts put into savings. I don't have a lot for saving but it slowly adds up.

[@AmandasBudgets]

Every dollar counts!

[@susanpacheco8318]

I budget for my bills first and then savings. There’s nothing left after that and it’s a good thing💜

[@AmandasBudgets]

Amen to that!

Woah! I hope you can sell that car and buy somethign cheap. Insane cost! That must be so hard. Also the phones ..yikes., An older car will also make your insurance cheaper. Way cheaper. Our car is a 2007 and the insurance is $1000 a year.

[@AmandasBudgets]

I use it to work so no I won’t be. My insurance is because of the type of gig working I do. Plus I have roadside assistance and a car rental on the insurance full coverage. I can’t do what I do to make money off with an older like that vehicle.

[@diannerichards6018]

For the weekly budgets, for those being paid weekly, 4 months out of the year have 5 paychecks.

[@AmandasBudgets]

You can print as many pages as you need it’s a digital version

[@bitsybarkley]

Also on your car insurance if you’re a senior citizen and you do not drive as much as you used to and you do not go out shopping as much as you used to keep a total of how many miles you travel in a week and how many times you leave the house in a week And let your Insurance know this because that has a lot to do with the price of your insurance because I am a former insurance agent and if you don’t tell him, they don’t know my insurance went down when I retired because I no longer travel to work, and I do not go out shopping as much as I used to and the mileage on my car is less than I was getting. That’s very important as you get older on your insurance because the older you are the less capable they think you can drive and if you have someone that drives for you make sure that they are on your insurance or you have people that can drive for you on your insurance That makes a difference too specially, if there is a accident and someone else is driving. Just to help from hint from a former insurance agent.

[@AmandasBudgets]

That’s great info to know thank you 😊 I appreciate that a lot

Your bills are astronomical! $680 car payment, $366 in utilities, $336 for car insurance, $260 for three phones?!?! Complete insanity. I pay less in utilities for a 3000 sq ft house + 1800 sq foot garage. Your monthly car insurance is more than I pay for the entire year. I have 4 phone lines through Verizon for $130.

[@AmandasBudgets]

Where do you live? Oregon California and Washington are some of the most expensive states to live in friend.

[@breezybre2670]

​@@AmandasBudgets I live in Canada which is a higher cost of living and we pay less for all of those other than utilities because it is cold here. Phones for sure should be less. We pay $42 each and like you you the phone as a computer...maybe it is because we don't have phone tabs...we own our phones.

[@breezybre2670]

I'm only saying this becuase I feel horroble for you. You can't get out of debt with such high bills and a low income..
