I had this realization last year! I racked up $30K of credit card debt in my twenties. I started opening up to my therapist, started budgeting, binged watched Caleb Hammer videos and girl - I’m at $10K now, haven’t used that card in over a year. You got this! Love this content. You’re right that consistency is the key.

I think this is what your audience wants! We want someone to be real about what it's like to be an influencer - what it's meant for your lifestyle, finances, and mental health. Especially our OG girls! This content has me running back to your channel for the first time in years, and I know others feel the same. No one is really doing this content yet, and you could be one of the most credible voices for it.

Girl that's the content we DO wanna see. Overall imma just give you my PR answer. Your content is not boring but your content is tooooo curated to what you think we want to see when what we really wanna see if you. Raw. Uncut you. (Not saying you haven't been doing that but it appears or comes off as you filter and edit a lot). I am truly shocked you are in that much debt and I've been watching you for years I thought you were "perfect" (aesthetically not literally) based on the content I watch from you. Meaning that there is sooo much I do not know about you as a person experiencing the world. Do I know your daily routines workout routines etc yup but do I know fully how your routines, experiences and emotions are not only affecting you but how you process the world not really not fully or not enough. Hope this makes sense but overall more raw and uncut moments like this from you will take this channel further (I'm shocked you don't have more subscribers you've been consistent for yearsssss). I clicked on this video due to the shock of your title because again I would never expect that from you because you appear "perfectly" curated which maybe for some can come off as lack luster. You're a star and 2024 is gonna be your year 🧡🧡

Open a high yield savings account like Ally, has a higher interest rate and you get paid interest keeping your money in a HYSA. They usually start at like 4.35% rate & above 3. Live below your means & dont keep up the Jones *also go through your subscriptions and cancel some that you dont really use that may be on an autopay

Y’all can do it! I was $38k in debt in 2019 and this year I’ll have it all paid off, about $1500 left, I’ve been doing it super slow and slacking a bit honestly, but the most important thing for me has been to not accrue more debt along the way. I did rack up my credit cards a little bit back up along the way but over all have not pulled any new loans, car loans etc. I did consolidate some of my higher payment credit cards but then closed the accounts, that was the key too. Goodluck all!

Proud of you for starting the baby steps toward financial stability. I recommend tracking everything that you spend, EVERY DAY. This has been life changing for me and literally takes 5 minutes at the end of the night. I log onto my bank, see what’s posted on my card that day (subscriptions, recurring payments, or whatever I spent that day) and throw it in a free Google budget tracker sheet. I now spend less than half of what I did before

@@bd1043 sorry, I directly translated from my native language in my head. lol I mean that if you want to pay $500 towards a credit card with a balance: instead of paying the whole amount around your due date, pay more earlier in the month, and the rest of the amount later. It helps reduce your interest rate because the cycle for interest rates is different from credit card statement due date.

I was spending so much money on gym clothes, regular clothes, shoes etc and I had stuff I didn't even wear. So for me that's the best but yes learning what an actual budget includes (includes spending limit on other categories i.e gas, groceries, etc) it has changed my mindset. Goodluck!

also, you keep mentioning interest rates. those typically don’t change month to month. you’re charged interest based on how much is *left* after you make your monthly payment. if your APR is 26%, it will be 26% of whatever the remaining balance is month to month. the faster you pay it off the less interest you will accrue. my advice: be aggressive and start paying it in FULL every month once you pay it down

Consider getting a small lock box/safe for your house for your car title, loan info, passport, social security card etc. Get a sticky note and put balance on it and wrap in your credit card. Every time you use it, write the amt on sticky note. Consider if you really need it for every purchase. Call the credit card company and ask if they can reduce the interest rate. Transfer a small manageable amt to a zero interest card and pay that off before interest accrues while continuing to pay main card.

I'm sorry you have to feel this way, I was so depressed about the debt I'm having right now and the job transitions. We are human, we have feelings and its barely be able to breath with these debts. Wish the best for you! Listening to financial podcast help me a lot, I listened to Mr. Dave Ramsey the one went bankrupt at 28 but he rebuilt everything! After getting some senses and self reflection, I paid off $5k within 2 months with low income. We got this! Everyone will be ok!

The snowball effect is true! It increases your credit drastically too. When it comes to the gym I really want to be disciplined! But after work, I just like relaxing. Next week I'm gone do better :D

Same with the gym…I decided the only way I get to go to the gym is if I go in the morning. I’ve been going in the morning before work. Most mornings I don’t feel like it but I push myself.

You are not an idiot!! The fact that you were educated on the topic of financial literacy and immediately changed your habits and have stuck to them is proof that you are very wise! These are things that should be taught to us from a young age, but most people are in the dark about how these financial systems work. Sadly the system kind of relies on people slipping up so that the banks can profit and keep people indebted to them. That's why payday loans exist.

The good thing is that you realize where you've been messing up. Having a budget is important but what I like to do is take all my bills and look at my income and then figure out how much I am going to pay for the bills. Most of the time I pay off my credit cards. Sometimes I don't because I have a high month like vacation and self-care costs but I always try to pay most of it off at the minimum. Always make sure you give yourself some spending money so that you won't go overboard. I didn't have anyone guiding me so I learned the hard way early. This is part of adulting and you will get there. Give yourself some grace babe I am proud of you!!

Been following you for about 10 years, and it’s really amazing just to see how much you have grown. Also the person that you’re becoming! this is really helpful especially as an adult who just got a house, having access to capital is something that we don’t always talk about.

Also every night, transfer money from your checking (either round up cents to the next dollar, or if you’re better off round up to the next 5 dollars every other day). That’s 15 to 30 dollars extra payments every month or even more. For fun drinks gather all your tea bags (fruity ones work great) and hang them with cold water in a flask over night. You’ll have a zero calorie fun drink for the gym and you save yourself iced tea money at Starbucks.
