    I got financially wise at 21. The financial mistakes I made from age 17-21 cost me $50K (Student loan debt & not saving/budgeting). 24 now, most of my debt is paid & in a much better place financially. Sometimes I think about that $50K but no use in crying over spilled milk at this point. Just learned from my mistakes and moving a lot smarter now! Plus, if you’re a real hustler, you’ll know how to bounce back from any situation & level up even higher

      damn 50k student loan debt ! plus having to also spend money on order to live. I’m going to the military so that they can pay for my school so that way I don’t have any student loans . Plus I can save most of the money I get that way since everything else is covered .

    I'm 33 yo now and I never made any of these mistakes, but I realize I was very blessed to have parents that taught me financial responsibility very young. This is a great video since I'm hoping a lot of younger ppl will watch. The only thing that really helps is learning all of this stuff as early as possible. Would really help if personal finance was taught in high school, but I digress.

      My parents tried to teach me financial literacy but the only thing they told me was save money. They never taught me how to budget or about spending habits or any of that. I grew up being told that if I wanted some thing I had to pay for it myself, and when I got my first full-time job and I got them $700 checks I was buying everything that I wanted that I missed out when I was younger. And I still kind of do that now. I’m trying to work on my relationship with money and I’m delayed gratification.

      @@nicoleso7777 AH! sorry i didn't see this comment. but honestly i think it's as easy as making sure you spend less than you make. people know the concept, but it's hard to put it into practice. this means doing whatever works with you and your habits. do you wanna track every expense on a spreadsheet? cool, if that works for you. if not, some people make sure to sock away whatever savings/investments they want to make right when they get their paycheck, and then they're free to spend the rest. with either approach, you ensure that you're spending less than you make, but both approaches are super different. Also with the savings, it depends on what expenses you have in your life and your own situation and taking a risk-based approach. Do you have fairly steady income with a secure job and usual expenses every month? then you might not need to save so much for your EMERGENCY SAVINGS. Are your living expenses not as regular with erratic bills/expenses? a larger cushion might be what you need and you'll need to adjust the amount you save per month to reflect that. if you're willing to take on more risk and not have too big of a cushion, then just know you're living riskier if you can handle it. however it is you decide to plan out how you spend your paychecks and plan out your finances, just make sure there's a plan!
      FINALLY! when I decide to spend any amount of money on something, especially a huge purchase, I think about how much TIME it costs to buy it. like say you make $20 per hour. if something costs $100, is that thing really worth 5 hours of your life? if not, it aint worth it to buy.

    23 and I just feel so out of control of my finances. I feel like I don’t make enough to get ahead of my debt but I also do myself a disservice by not budgeting the little that I do make.

      @@empirelyricschannel Why are you putting money in a retirement fund? There is a limit of how much you put into a RRSP and it makes more sense to put funds away when you are in a higher tax bracket. I am just assuming this right now but judging by your age you are probably in one of the lowest tax brackets meaning that the government is not clawing away a ton of your salary. It’s smart to put money in savings of some kind but you are too young to put in in a RRSP (if that’s what you are in fact doing). Same thing goes for a TFSA.

    I bought a new car at 22 and don’t regret it. I just feel like the only thing that matters with car value is if you decide to sell it. In that case, I would do research on car manufacturers with the greatest longevity and make sure you’re purchasing a car that you’ll literally drive into the ground lol. Also, I agree with saving for the first few months- year of rent just as a starter but also you have to make sure your situation is stable and not like you just have a lot of money coming in at first but no way to sustain the income to pay rent in the long run. Basically how to avoid having to move back home because you can no longer afford rent after 6 months

That bank account had all of $10 in there but it was still better than nothing. That being said, I'm 24 now and I can say... whew those overdraft fees absolutely ruined me in college LMAO My biggest mistake was not budgeting correctly and being realistic about what counted as "essential" purchases and what was something I could have skimped out on.

    I‘m from Germany and we have a different money mentality. Most people save a lot of money and build up till they move out. They only move out if they can easily afford the rent (which is minimum 1/3 of their income) So calculating with unexpected costs and enough savings is important, as well as investing, like you said. Don‘t ever take a loan for fashion etc. only for big investments like buying a house. Even a car should be easy to pay without money loan. I think you gave quite helpful tips for many people, it’s so important to resist impulsive consuming and expensive things you don’t need only because influencers or ads told you to buy it.

    Watching this at the age of 16, and I hope I can apply all the knowledge that I learnt for the next coming years... Although it makes me anxious about the possible expenses in the future.

    Impulsive buys was my money mistakes and then the whole break a big purchase into 4 payments with like Zip or after pay but I kept making big purchase that way so I ended up paying over $100 every other week. It just was terrible. My goal is to get $1000 in my savings, budget and cut off some subscriptions until I can get my savings/investments where I want them to be at ☺️ thank you for making this video ❤️

    I've always been a natural saver, so spending is actually hard for me lmao. Great video!! Love hearing from other fellow 20 some year olds, because budget and finance is something none of us really ever learned, yet it's so vital to everyday life (especially in Capitalist North America opps hehe).

    Money mistakes I made was not budgeting, not checking my account statements to monitor my spending and buying things that I wanted and not needed. Also not comparing prices to look for cheaper options. I'm in my second year of university and am budgeting (though i struggle to keep to it sometimes). I don't have unnecessary subscriptions. And I monitor my account to cut down on unnecessary expenses. It's all a learning curve tbf. I'm a bit unsure about investing though.

    I might be a year late but coming across this video made me rethink about my money decisions.
    Back when I was in highschool I used to save up around a thousand dollars from my school allowance. But then when I started college and I got more freedom in my hands, I used all those money for traveling until I'm all wiped out completely.
    Now my current money mistake is that Im so obsessed with collecting photocards from my favorite korean idol group and I have been paying a lot of subscriptions.. I've been getting myself to be on track by watching videos like yours so thank you for the heads up! Hope I can get back to where I started.

    I just hate the idea of paying someone's rent for poor quality housing (NYC) but I'm sort of tired of living with family at this point. I'm 23...I have about $150k in liquid savings and an investment fund in my tech company's stock. It's essentially the same issue in NYC housing market. Too expensive to buy but renting experience is not worth the cost here...I don't know what to do but stay put.

    my bank doesn't allow more than 4 transfers online from my savings to checking in a month...so they charged me a $40 fee...i'm never making that mistake again...i thought it was unlimited transfers...it's not if it's online...which is stupid but now i know...my parents didn't even know about this policy since they're new to online banking as well and that's why it's so hard to be me...i basically learn everything on my own...sometimes the hard way

    Last year I blew thru my $2000 savings so quick over the summer before college and was freaking out thinking I’ll never get it back. Im almost 19 and live w my parents so no bills, but now i have financial aid covering my college funds and the rest going towards my account. Ive put most of it in my savings and then spent lots of time watching yt vids on how to budget the rest that’s for me. It’s helped me go from $500 to $5000 in my savings in just my first year of college… hopefully this will lead me in a direction to moving out fairly soon :)

    I’m still in my 20‘s 😂 but which mistake I did was investing in the wrong company. I was listening to an advice from someone, who didn’t do a good background check about the company. His investing strategy seemed more like gambling. I didn’t that my friend, who gave me the advice, got into debt just to buy shares of the company. Which is a red flag now that I think about it 🚩🚩🚩But I trusted him and invested in a company, which was faking data about the revenue and in the end the CEO ran away as everything went downhill.
    Fortunately I’ve just lost 50€ or something. But it teached me a more valuable lesson. To only trust you own believes and to check twice or even more before investing in the company. Also I‘m more beware with investing when there’s an upcoming earning call. In these times shares can be very volatile.

    Really awesome tips and guidance, I'm in the middle of saving for my emergency fund and really looking in to getting into earning passive income. In terms of mistakes....whew, overspending on luxury gifts for my partner and myself. Also, lending money to family/partner as well....I guess we live and we learn 😅

    I think if I didn't spend my money on clothing, heels, purses and eating out, I would own multiple rental properties by now and work towards retirement. I see girls buy a Hermes Birkin bag, I see that as a new Tesla if I invest the money for a few years.
