The only thing a budget *really* needs is: 1) savings 2) fixed expenses That's it. Take out the amount you want saved first- pay yourself first. And then non-negotiables: rent, insurance, debt payment, etc. After that, everything is up for grabs. It literally doesn't matter. As long as you get your savings/investment goal covered as well as fixed expenses, don't sweat the small stuff.

That only works if your financial situation is simple. Some people have financial responsibility for their parents or their children or want to give money away to charities when they pass. These type of expenses are neither savings or "fixed expenses" like insurance or housing since they are other people's needs, not your own. My mom might need $1k this month to help out on bills, but she might need $5k next month to help for a car.

@@ilvaphoto of course it changes the original statement because you add variable expenses. So instead of taking the amount you want saved first, first you have to see which of your variable expenses are more important than savings - like if I have to help pay for my moms hospital. I take that out first, then take out what I need for fixed expenses, like rent, then what I have left is savings. So it changes in that when you have financial responsibility over others, those costs sometimes take precedent over your own needs.

@@1970rsc other unexpected expenses have nothing to do with your budget, that’s what your savings is for, things outside of your fixed expenses and your personal needs. If you can afford to give your mom an unexpected 5k then that should originate from your savings or else you had 5k sitting there depreciating which is already an elementary financial mistake.

America is currently plagued by the hydra-headed evil duo of inflation and recession. The worst part about this recession is that consumers are racking up credit card debt. In April last year alone, credit card debt went up 20% while rates have doubled in a year. Inflation is so high that consumers are literally taking debt for basic life necessities. Collapse has indeed begun.

The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.

As a financial advisor I strategise my budget by paying all my non negotiables first; such as rent, bills, travel money etc. I then have a leisure budget (socialising, drinks, etc) I keep this to a minimal, but not so strapped that I can't have fun. I then put 80% into various ETF's that give me long projected growth. I then invest the other 20% into the stock market, sometimes I don't invest all of it and then put the remaining into my ETF's. I never let money just sit around in my bank account, apart from a set amount for emergencies that I need to access quickly.

Another easy way to save money on eating out is AVOID UBER EATS. The price is insane vs using the restaurants' in-house delivery (depending on the place), or picking it up yourself. Each food item is almost always marked up, plus delivery fees, plus service fees, etc. I personally did some comparisons and a restaurant near Vaughan Mills (a 10 min round trip from my condo) was $20 more expensive via uber eats vs me driving. And pizza places? Absolutely a waste to use uber eats instead of their own delivery drivers. Obviously cook your food yourself when you can to save the most money.

Remember, diversification is an approach to help manage investment risk. It does not eliminate the risk of loss if security prices decline Because investing can be complicated.

I did this analysis over a full year and I was shocked. 500 per month on average eating out, 500 shopping, 100 on taxis, etc. we were wasting our money without even realising it. We always thought "once in a while is ok, right?". We were totally wrong in assessing how often we were actually spending unnecessarily. Now we're setting hard limits on each category and it's as simple as that. It's changing our lives. We're finally getting out of the "there's money in the bank so we can afford this" mentality.

Tracking is a great way to eliminate bad habits. I've started weighing my food and, honestly, I'm not so strict about it but I've noticed there's an increased resistance (that doesn't feel bad at all) to eating food that only gives me calories and gives me barely any nutrition. I'd say the same philosophy applies to tracking your expenses. Simply tracking your expenses will likely improve your buying behavior without the conscious effort of "sacrificing" your lifestyle.
@lukvanleeuwen7603
@lukvanleeuwen7603 Жыл бұрын
Be carefull with weighing food though! If you take it a step further every time that could result in a ED (not saying it will, just a warning). I would look at it more like adding stuff to add nutrition, and then taking away the less nutritious stuff only to the amount you feel like you could eat. The result is of course basically the same, but it might help against seeing calories as a negative thing :)

How would you calculate your percentage if you’re contributing to a pre-tax savings account? Also would you take your taxes out of your income for the percentage equation? Say you make like $6k per month, and contribute $1k to a pre-tax account, and you have $1k of taxes taken out, then you save $2k of the remaining $4k. Would you say you’re saving $3k out of a possible $5k, so a 60% rate? Or would you say $3k out of a possible $6k, 50%? My point is you cannot save what you owe as taxes, but also not counting pre-tax savings is incorrect as well. In my mind, I like including pre-tax savings and removing tax, to get that 3/5 scenario. And a follow up, as someone with a 20 year mortgage, I am paying about $300 extra per month towards principal compared to the minimum of a 30 year mortgage. Would you count that as savings?

This is a great vid. The really hard part is the analysis ... because there's a real emotional & piece to spending.

Great video Steve. This was a really great breakdown on how to not only cut unnecessary spending, but identify it in the first place. That’s arguably the most important step that is easily skipped.

I think I'm doing something wrong because my pivot table doesn't calculate my amounts. It counted them and the total was not what it was suppose to be. Am I missing something? I didn't have those lines in my category, does that do anything?

How do I make the chart change when I am.adding new items? Or do you just have to make the chart at the end for it all to add up Is it possible to make it add up live as you're adding things?

I’ve been budgeting fairly strictly for several years now, I kinda need to because I’m very low income, and I do these kinds of analyses atleast once a year. In 2022 I did it once every quarter and it was really helpful. It helps keep me on top of it essentially. Unnecessary spending are essentially habits, and they definitely sneak up on you and like every other habit, the earlier you catch it the easier it is to quit it. I can’t afford to eat out or do any shopping, so my unnecessary spending usually happens in the grocery store. I’ll find some new drink or food I get into, and within a couple of months I suddenly realize I’m splurging 80 bucks a month on things I don’t need. The worst part about it is that my grocery budget is already tight, so I’ll end up chipping away at my actual grocery list to fund that new coffee or fancy cheese or whatever it is. My grocery store has an app that can track everything you buy and breaks it all down in categories, so I can check to see which category I spent the most on aswell as which specific item in that category I spent the most on. It’s really helpful to see what items are weighing on your budget, and it gives you a chance to look for a cheaper alternative. It also shows how many times you bought a certain item in the past 12 months, so for example I stopped using paper towels when I saw how often I buy them, and I switched my shampoo to something that lasts me longer.

Yo this spreadsheet is fire. Easy way to see where your money is going. Did it for my own finances as I was watching and definitely need to cut down on eating out. That takes up 30-45% of my spending.

Not only is this a great video on how to fix your finances, but its also a great showcase of the power of categorical data. Sometimes all you need to figure out what needs to be fixed is to just put the right label on it.

Get an instant pot and cook the sauce for 40 minutes under soup mode. It will be like cooking it for 3-4 hours normally and no stirring needed. Save time and effort here. Maybe money too because of gas used in 3 hours to heat it.

My strategy is to save it before you can spend it, but leave some to live on. Meaning to literally invest most of it or put it in savings or an ISA so when you see stupid stuff you want to buy your money is already tied up
