Let me rework this statement for you. “My relationship with money is great. I implement these steps on my job.” Write this down on paper with the start date of your new job. I lost my job in banking in 2008 and was unemployed and underemployed for five years. I worked low paying jobs and did odd jobs to survive. I applied for a job that I really wanted and was denied. I applied for another role at the same company. This time, I wrote down the name of the role and when I was going to start working. Long story I started on that day and have been with the company for 11 years. Speak as though you have what you want.

Get a second job, or even a third one. Free time and relaxation is a luxury you can't really afford right now and you should take action to climb out of the hole. Do it for a year and you'll be shocked at how much you have saved. I did it myself, 1 full time job and a part time job and managed to save up about 13k in just under a year that I'll put toward a decent used vehicle, a pc, Xmas money and emergency funds for 2 months so far. Seek out creative ways to lower your expenses too, go out of your comfort zone if you need to. Its all temporary for a better future. The power is in your hands, you can do it 💪🏻

[@Thamazgha-tamurth-enegh]

​@@GreatTaiwanThis person most likely lives in the EU. I'm going to take a wild guess and say Netherlands or Germany since both countries when citizens are around minimum wage or beneath it will get some financial help. This doesn't always have to be welfare but more like rent allowance, medical allowance etc. from the tax service but only if you apply for this type of help and they will decide if you need it or not. This may sound amazing to outsiders but most people who need it are either unemployed (for medical/disability or mental reasons) but despite getting this help still they will often struggle with groceries and other expenses. It's one of the most expensive european countries, only scandinavian, austria, luxemborg, zwitserland and sweden are more expensive. But because medical insurance is obligated by law at least in the Netherlands and groceries are ridiculous since the whole ukraine disaster. Since ursula the demon demands €50 billion on top of another €66 billion that the EU members already had to barf up for ukraine (by higher taxes).

You don't have to have that much immediately, it's something you can work up to. Just even having 1 month or 2 months saved up is more than most people have and would be a good reassurance that you can survive for at least 2 months on savings while looking for another job.

[@dendritolotl]

Yes, the higher your salary the easier it is. But usually it’s about priorities as well. If you cannot afford your own flat move to a shared flat. If you cannot afford to live in London, look for a job elsewhere and move to a cheaper city. If you cannot afford all kinds of groceries - well, it’s shit tbh and I was there, so I don’t want to pretend it’s easy. But in Germany for example we have groups for food sharing and saving expired food from being discarded, maybe something like that exists in your countries as well? I mean for the lowest 10% it will be really really hard to even have money left and I don’t want to pretend everyone has a choice. But for the average person it’s very much possible and I find it hard to imagine that everyone saying it’s not possible is in the poorest 10% or so. Some of my friends keep keep complaining about not having enough money and from the top of my head I can tell them at least three changes that would save them a lot, like one of them really likes to go out instead of cooling herself, doesn’t buy second hand because she wants new things although the second hand things (like furniture) are usually all right and loves to get new tattoos. The other one got several cats after complaining (food, vet costs etc add up), also likes tattoos, loves middle age things and spent hundred of euros on getting authentic middle age things. I mean if it makes them happy fair enough, but then don’t say it’s about your salary, it’s about priorities

[@trixie8289]

I think your advice is really good, but I don’t agree you need to do these things as soon as you get paid. That suggests you need to do them every month, which I don’t think you do e.g. re calculating your financial baseline, that sounds to me like working out your monthly budget, and I think you only need to do that each time your financial situation changes (not necessarily every month). Re working out re pension contribution matching, you only need to sort that each time you get a new job and not every month. And re saving one month of your living costs in an easy access account, I think that is essentially the same as your later point about saving an emergency fund.
