I think you’ve always been great at sharing since I started watching. But I am excited to see more aspects of how you make it work, more in depth ❤❤ gawd, your sinking funds look incredible! I hope the propane really is that low. That would be such a huge blessing 😊 soon your assets over debt will keep growing and growing. I’m so proud of you 👏 #crazycups 😝

@@DollarsMakeSense2Me oh heck yeah!!! 👍🏻 fantastic! Propane can be a really really expensive cost. I remember my ma struggling to get it when we were little and now some places have minimums. Like $300 + minimums crazy.

I’m so happy for you! I have had a good month but it would be better if my husband didn’t spend money. You are lucky that you are able to totally manage the money. Hubby has only spent money from categories that I had budgeted for but he buys extra groceries and supplements that I don’t think are necessities. I guess it’s a give and take. I am learning a lot from watching the way you do your budget. Thanks for another great video! Question abt your hot water, how do you only use hot water for 3 months of the year? Do you have a dishwasher and what abt showers? Just curious. So happy for your savings!

Thank you so much for being here, I truly appreciate you !! And, Thank you for pointing out that I should appreciate my husband not medaling in the finances… Lol I literally was getting on him just the other day for not caring and not being interested in my No spend which gets frustrating at times, because I can’t share all of my wins I mean, I can share, but he doesn’t respond with any form of excitement, I love how you guys respond with encouragement, excitement, support, pride those would be nice sometimes but I guess you gotta take what you have. We were married very young both teenagers 🙃 & He actually is default frugal in his nature and always has been. We would save us a ton of money, but we’d hate life….lol I’m almost certain we would be eating, eggs for every meal (we get eggs free) he may add in cold-cut meat sandwiches for lunch and canned soup for dinner. But, Since your hubs is a spender, maybe you couldn’t get him on board with the idea of things needing to work into the budget, putting items on a wish list for next month… maybe?!

Sorry for the marathon response I had to ask my husband how the away/vacation part of our hot water heater works he handles that stuff…..He said it works because we are in such a heat area, that all summer the water comes out of the tap around 90°, But also, our water heater closet touches an outer wall and is not cooled, so that room stays HOT! When the water starts to be not so hot, he clicks it on it heats up and he turns it back to away/vaycay he says he does that maybe once a week, but he doesn’t even think it’s that often and I didn’t even know he was doing it. It happens very quickly and easily. Hope that helps. Don’t know if it works for anyone else out there because as you were saying, do we take “cold” showers, when showering in the summer here, we don’t normally use any hot water because it’s already 90°, and our dishwasher has a option that heats the water extra.
