    Although I agree with a lot of these tips, I disagree with automating. If an expense is automatically taken out, people tend think less about the expense and what it means with regard to their finances, both in the long and short term. It may be simplifying, but it really reduces mindfulness.

    • @Isabel_fit
      @Isabel_fit 4 года назад +2

      Yes i agree! That’s why I always like to get my bills in the mail so I’m aware at how much I’m spending, if we are paying more or less than the last month, etc. it’s also great bc that way you’ll find mistakes if they ever made any!

    • @patriciaeugeniaalvarezrami7318
      @patriciaeugeniaalvarezrami7318 4 года назад +1

      Si son gastos fijos como pago de agua, luz, teléfono, etc. Si considero que es adecuado automatizar, una preocupación menos

    • @christinefindorff5328
      @christinefindorff5328 4 года назад +3

      I have a couple of bills that are automated and I get notifications everytime they’re taken out. For bills that change every month (utilities, credit cards, etc) I think it’s better not to automate those. Since I get notifications every time the bill is taken out, it makes me think of ways I can potentially reduce that amount (switching insurance companies, asking about discounts, etc) because I don’t like seeing money taken out of my account.

    • @jillpruett4772
      @jillpruett4772 3 года назад +1

      I have just about everything automated, including my credit card payments. I like to say 'look ma no hands' does not mean 'look ma no eyes'. I keep close watch on all my payments partly because I have a formal accounting system to track everything.

    I have no credit cards. No after pay /zip pay etc.
    I save by buying preloved where possible. Waiting until the bigger purchases can come on sale or ask for a discount. ..
    We get given gift cards for Christmas and i use them towards things that we really want but that aren't necessary.

    All super great tips! I follow Dave Ramsey and have stayed debt free by doing so :) I currently have my three month emergency fund and I’m working on saving 6 months of expenses into an emergency fund. After this pandemic; however, I am hoping to eventually save up a 12 month emergency fund so that I can feel really secure going forward :)

    Thank you so much for this video. I'm planning to get a seasonal job and pay off some minor debts and start to save up so I can buy a duplex next year (Lord Willing). Since rent is so much more than mortgage here in FL I plan to live on one side and rent out the other. So I gotta save for some form of down payment as well as invest in appliances for the apt for rent.

    I turned 30 year old. Never I had debt. I always rent living in slums. Not like your suburbian fancy houses, but you can live. I am not living for giving a tour... My rent is €435 a month including internet, water, garbage, cable and many other costs which "owners" are adding up to pay plus their fixes are paid additionally (like new cooker). I just call and they replace it if defective.
    I honestly do not see myself working my life either. I work from monday to friday, not much in money, but I work and have time to live... and also savings possible.
