This one actually pushed me to my mental breaking point. After recording a couple rough episodes like this that day, this was just the final nail in the coffin. We ended up taking a week off of recording episodes after this… So, if I seemed a little rough around the edges and wasn’t perfect… That’s why! I like to leave these moments in because in the end, I’m only human and I prefer being open.

But she does the security of not having her car break down. She works from home. Maybe her car just isn't that reliable (especially with the check engine light) but it's okay enough to drive around town a little like to the grocery store. Driving that trip to Austin and breaking down when you're alone would be pretty expensive and kinda scary.... But on the other hand, it's possible her check engine light has been on for a while and she could have had the car checked and fixed before

Just a quick note: Ik it probably doesn’t rub people well that Caleb talks about the future burden on children that parents having poor financials can cause. Ik it feels like a dig to say people are not taking care of their children when they make BS decisions. But as someone who has watched the end of this story play out with my parents/grandparents, and who fully expects to have to support my own parents in retirement, I CANNOT overstate how right he is about this. I am anxious all the time thinking about how I’m going to support myself and my future AND that of my PARENTS, The people who are supposed to be helping me and my siblings.

As for your parents, it is NOT your responsibility. You are called to honor them, doesn’t mean you pay their way. Their life is their fault. Just as your life is your choices. Pray for them, show them honor, and then get busy doing what you were created to do!

[@camrynjade3244]

it’s not just as simple as saying “it’s not your responsibility”. of course it’s not, but when your parents are older and don’t have the means to support their lives what should you do? say that’s not my responsibility and let them live in bad/uncomfortable situations? possibly, and that would be a valid thing to do because their lives are their own responsibility. however, it’s not going to be easy on the child. it’s would put a tremendous amount of guilt on the child even though they don’t deserve it. i think about this a lot with my mother. my grandfather still supports her in her late 40’s. i’m scared it will be me after he’s not here to do it. anyways, you have to imagine what the situation would look like for your elder parents, and if you’d be okay with them suffering in their old age even tho it’s from their own doing.

Summer says she is a visual learner, so here is a written list of steps she can take (some Caleb's, some added): 1. Cut the personal trainer. 2. Change grocery stores. 3. Lyft/Uber: What's that all about? You have 2 cars? Can you eliminate or cut that at least in half? 4.. Eat at home. If "cold turkey" is too tough a change, allow yourself once per week. And pick it up yourself. No delivery fees! 5. Work with your partner to make a list of at least 12 things to do that are fun and don't cost money. A start: Take your child to the park. Do a puzzle. Play board games. Put on music and dance. Wander through a free festival... Eliminate all concert, vacation, travel expenses for now. 6. Childcare: A necessary expense; could you schedule most of your meetings in the mornings or on 2 specific days per week? This would allow you to have a nanny, but for much less time/expense. 7. Watch KZbin Videos on meal planning/food prep. Everyone in your house eats the same thing (more veggies are good for your child AND will help you lose the baby weight!) Invite a neighbor, friend, co-worker over to teach you how to cook their "specialty." 8. Consider using the Envelope System. Put the actual cash in labeled envelopes according to your budget. When the envelope is empty, you are done spending! You can also learn more about this online. 9. You are at risk since you are not married; what if you break up? Consider whether you want the financial protection and commitment of marrying your child's father. And start setting aside small amounts of cash to protect you in case the relationship doesn't last. 10. Develop a bill paying system that helps you prevent paying bills late. You can automate some, or pick one day a week.... 11. Consider taking a course in personal finance from your community college or working with someone who has their financial act together.

There's also a sub emotional part when it comes to investing into appearance, where there's more pressure on women to look a certain way. So getting personal trainers, makeup, skincare, clothing, hair etc adds up QUICKLY and if you're in office and public environments where you're being showcased.. Yeah, you're probably going to make more tips or get noticed more in the office because of how you display yourself. Is it right? no. Is it prevalent in many cultures and societies? Yes. (This also applies to men but there's more of a financial target for women or in the feminine spectrum) So if you have left over to spend on an expensive serum or getting your hair done etc and you have the "I earn this" mentality, it's always going to bring yourself into debt.

Caleb - this series has changed my life. I first started watching in July and since then I've completely stopped using credit cards, closed three cards, and am working on paying down my debts. Shortly after starting my new lifestyle, my husband and I found out we were expecting our first child! I can't wait to be financially free by the time our baby arrives. Thank you so much.

Congratulations 🎉

This made me check my credit card and plan my meal prep this week.

Paid off 30K in CC debt after finally creating a budget with my wife and buying our first house this month. Also made the decision to not buy a 100K new model X and instead keep driving the paid off Prius. Channel has helped a ton! 🙏🏼👍🏼☀️

[@CalebHammer]

Good decision

[@landoswallace5168]

💀 good decision you almost did all that work for nothing lmao

[@nicolivoldkif9096]

Good work to you and your wife. Keep it going

[@lisapvpv]

Good to hear!! 😅😊

That Tesla wouldve turned into a headache for you

Just want to say a massive thanks Caleb. Thanks to watching you, I've cleared off nearly £4k of high interest debt over the last 4 months as well as being able to weather an unexpected £1k bill when my car failed its MOT. By this point next month, I'll be fully cleared of death debt and will be finally be able to start getting my future in order, just before I hit 30

[@CalebHammer]

Wooo!!!

[@katiempojer]

Me too he’s allowed me to look at my spending habits

​@@CalebHammer I saw £ in the comment and thought it would be really cool if you did an episode for someone based in the UK. I understand there'd be a lot of tax/pension/loan repayment legislation stuff that you'd have to look up, but it would be cool nonetheless! I love your video format and conduct!

[@matthewv4170]

​@@BraddursCaleb wouldn't have a fair starting point. Food prices are different (substantially higher), house prices/rents are different, we use a lot in utilities compared to you guys especially in winter and our salaries are ridiculously lower than your. Working full time as a manager at McDonalds for example would net you about 32,000 a year. After Tex it's about 24,000

[@matthewv4170]

For a four person family Average rent is around 1000 a month, food shopping is about 600-700 a month, gas and electric is around 200 a month over the year, council tax is around 160 a month.

$1200 on baby food and $450 for a personal trainer was the craziest thing ever. Millionaires don’t pay that much for those things. Why on earth did she think she could live like that???

One word. Atlanta

[@gen1130]

oh they do. but they can afford it

[@michelleweber7034]

I used to work for a very wealthy woman as an assistant, and when I shopped for her, she would always ask for grocery store brand products (the cheapest option). She would spend her money on other things because she could, but she didn't across the board spend all her money on premium everything. It was really helpful for me to see that! Save where you can so you can spend your money on the things that really matter. 👍

@@michelleweber7034wealthy people rarely show off their “wealth” in these ways. I think she likes the status of saying she only shops at Whole Foods. Rich people have nothing to prove.

What people will do to make people think they're better off than they really are. Honestly you csn youtube all workouts and I don't know about the health impacts but putting a 2 year old on a pescetarian diets seems utterly pointless. Also now that I think about it why is she spending soo much on childcare if she wfh. I know plenty of people that wfh and take care of their toddlers.

[@makaiaalmeida2704]

My favorite thing is when Caleb’s looking at their credit cards statements and they always say “I’m not a credit card person” but proceeds to max out every credit card they have

[@insertoyouroemail]

My little sister is like this. You can't reach them. It's like they're not quite switched on. Notice how she mechanically says things like "oh my gaaawd" with no emotion. She is completely detached from this.

[@atlasbonds6095]

I also have a sister like that. It blows my mind how much money she can blow with nothing to show for it.
