Great!

[@prabhamishra8735]

Good on you for not letting your anxiety in the way and showing your hands, coz I can’t see anything wrong with them. Love you nail Color

[@byShannon]

Aw thank you so much Xx

[@louisevictoria_]

Yesssss! I would love for you to do this once a month! 😍 doing it this way makes it seem like so much more fun to do! I will have to look into this as would love £10,000 at the end of the year 😂 great video Shan I loved it 👏 xxx

[@byShannon]

Thanks so much Lou! I agree, such a fun way of organising finances. I will definitely film more of these videos Xx

Cash is King 🎉

[@bluegrassgurl]

We all have things we’re self conscious about that we notice WAY more than other people. I never would have even given your veins a thought and even after you mention them, they look totally normal. I’m self conscious about my arm hair and when I’ve asked friends, they’re like, “What are you talking about?” So sending both of us body love for our completely normal, healthy and beautiful bodies! ❤

[@annydu5361]

Hey shannon, why dont you seperate your cash envelopes/money buckets in your bank account? Surely it would be much safer than carrying all that cash around with you?! I do something very similar but its all within my savings account, that way im also earning interest. 😉

[@LVCoffeeLVer]

I was wondering the same and also you can’t pay certain things with cash so I wonder how that part works

[@byShannon]

Hey, that is something I have always done and it works well. I just wanted to try something new and I think this is super fun haha! As for the interest, I have seen other people who will bank funds once they hit about $500, that way I am never carrying too much cash Xx

[@byShannon]

@@LVCoffeeLVer Most places in Australia take cash so it must be different in other parts of the world. I also have funds on my debit card if need be :)

[@Lexilgalloway]

I love this finance content! People don’t talk about it enough 👏🏼👏🏼

[@byShannon]

Couldn't agree more! Xx

Your veins are nice and just means that you are thin. Nothing else. Dont be embarrassed. I feel indicated around the cash stuffing LOL I used to cash stuff 22 years ago and when my husband met me he thought it was so weird that I hoarded cash. It was the only way I knew how to budget and be on track. I used clear pencil cases and a special non descript box. I always had my rego and insurance when I needed it. You dont budget for food or entertainment, what about vet bills. Rent etc.

[@byShannon]

Aw thank you so much for your kind words, you've made my day! Wow, go you - it is so good that you have been so organised with your finances and when my car rego and insurance rolls round I feel so relieved that I have the money there. So my cash stuffing routine has changed slightly and I plan to do an updated video soon. But basically I keep in my bank account all bills that come out electronically such as subscriptions, phone bill and mortgage plus I keep grocery allowance in my bank account too because my partner and I share those expenses. So all I have been cash stuffing now is Savings Challenges, Car Insurance & Rego, Christmas Fund, Fashion, Home, Beauty and Gifts. I might create more but they are what I am working with at the moment. Sorry for the long-winded reply! haha Xx

[@LVCoffeeLVer]

I’ve heard about this and im so confused on how it works. Can you do a video of how it works? So many places don’t take cash so I can’t see the benefits. Y’all’s cash looks so cool! Ours is so boring

[@byShannon]

Hey, yeah I'm sure this method of budgeting wouldn't work for everyone. Almost everywhere in Australia takes cash so I guess I am lucky in that way. In terms of how it works, I guess it is no different to organising finances online - I think its just a fun way of doing it haha Xx

✨I love cash stuffing! It’s such a great budgeting tool. I’ve been doing the 5k challenge for 2 years now. Prior to that I did the 1k challenge. I may do the 10k challenge this year. It’s so much fun✨

[@byShannon]

So good to know! I have heard of so may people saving so much, I'm really excited! Xx

[@catherineramsay8055]

Your notes are very similar to Canadian cash!

[@froufou100]

I would love to do this but am too scared shops won't have change on them 😆😆. How cool to see Aussie's banknotes; I had no idea HRH was on yours, too!

[@byShannon]

Yeah that is a worry - most places in Australia take cash Xx

[@froufou100]

@@byShannon that is a relief xx

[@wateydiep5980]

On an unrelated note, in my culture we love veins its hot bestie embrace them!!

[@byShannon]

Aw thank you! I will try to change my perspective on them haha!
