    Nov 2018: 20k over 5 cards, years behind in paying my: student loans, car note, all 5 credit cards.
    Nov. 2019: Got all caught up on my back payments.

    I'm 52 years old and have experienced the learning process of credit and debt along with the how-to's and so forth of rebuilding my credit score and income to debt ratio. But this video woke up some of my senses when it comes to "net-worth" the fruits we grow from our labor. A ton of people like myself are thinking of it by income subtract monthly bills to how much we have left over (cash) is our net-worth plus assets. Now this is true to a point but there's a lot more to consider when it comes to networth. Such as investments and assets (collectors items, houses things that gain value over time. With your reminder of net-worth for me really hit hard. These are things I was aware of but overtime I had lost sight of because I was too busy trying to keep my income well above my monthly debt payments. Thank you for this video I just hope it's not too late for me.

Ever since I have been so engaged in your content as I'm working to pay off credit card debt and an auto loan. However all of your content is either 2 or 3 years old. Do you still financial content? If so I would love it if you can do a video on how to invest money. I hear so much about it but don't actually know how to get started

    The way some people describe credit cards, it's like a demon takes control and makes them go 30k into debt

    • @DiamondEdwards
      @DiamondEdwards  2 года назад +1

      It's not demons, its psychology and the banks understand this better than anyone. Like most things, the object is not the problem, it's the decisions make by the person in possession of the object.

    Brother man. 5 yrs ago I couldn't even get a checking account from NO!! Bank What you talking is 100 percent facts. Making minimum payments only is like asking for trouble u might be good financially now and tomorrow lose everything.I believe make the sacrifice and pay most or if you can whole balance. 2 yrs ago I learned the game by listening to people like you on RUclips now I have 10 credit cards all zero balance I use one credit card a month pay it off and use the next one also I have 3 different checking account. I don't make alot off money but I have good credit and credit cards help me put on a front. Thanks for the video and keep them coming I'm sure you helped a few people. We need to spread the knowledge. God bless

    Diamond just wanted to take a sec to tell u ur appreciated for the videos and education u provide I’m a Black Man and I get so sick and tired of us throwing up gang signs flashing guns or talking about how much a chain cost 💲 I grew up around that life didn’t realize until I was about 30 that wasn’t anything cool about that stuff, I wish our Black community could see more positive people like you it’s not about race but it really disappoints me when we try so hard to prove were more then what they think of us and being educated is a big part of that

    • @DiamondEdwards
      @DiamondEdwards  2 года назад

      30 is that magically number! Thank you for those kind words. My plan is to put my truth out there for those who are ready to receive it. There is so much misinformation out there and people don't realize that most of what we learn about money and credit is design to transfer our money to the wealthy. This will continue until the masses learn how money really works. I recently read The Color of Money by Mehrsa Baradaran which made me think, if more people knew the truth, we would be more focused than ever before on empowering ourselves and community through financial gains. We have to do this!

    • @DiamondEdwards
      @DiamondEdwards  3 года назад +1

    Thanks for what you are doing but I find it comical that a lot of people use the excuse of “no one taught me this.” I’m 50 and remember when the minimum payment warning was NOT on the credit card statement once the government made them put it on there and everyone received their bill they can’t read that bold large print? Willful ignorance is NOT an excuse people are just foolish🤦🏽‍♂️ and choose to be in debt. People know when they maxed out their credit card and have to get another one to in turn max that one out and in the back of their mind they have $20k of credit card debt and only make $18k at their job🤯🤯🤯🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️. But no one taught them. Common sense isnt common and accountability is even rarer.

    @peartfaldo 3 года назад +1

    everything you're talking about is behavioral. people try to buy "happiness". "happiness" has NOTHING to do with what you have. AND... of course the things you cant "afford" are the things that will make you "happy"...so you put those things on a card...the payment is only #30/month...then you buy something else and on and on and on......next thing you know...you are in trouble and life sucks. STOP trying to buy your happiness people. The credit cards aren't the problem!!!!! Then boo hoo poor me. Get it together people. Unlike our wonderful media is telling you...YOU CAN DO IT!!! Peace;-)

    • @DiamondEdwards
      @DiamondEdwards  3 года назад +3

      What I've learned on my journey is that personal finance is almost entirely behavioral but I believe it's deeper than trying to buy happiness. For me, I was never trying to buy happiness even though I bought a lot of things. My view of money was the problem. I grew up believing money was tool to get you what you wanted so if I wanted a new motorcycle and went out and made the money to buy a motorcycle even if with payments I considered that a win. Now, I view money as a tool to build wealth and impact the lives of my family so of course my money decisions reflect this new view and I invest and plan more than I ever did. My views were shaped by the environment I grew up in which I had no control over and overcoming what you believe is right is not an easy task so I will touch on behavior a lot on this channel. Money is really simple, behavior is what complicates money.

    I want to tell you about my recent experience last year. I joined SamsClub for eight dollars for the year. Me and my daughter went there once or twice for gas we didn’t really like it. They don’t have coupons like BJ’s so we never really used it. I was working a lot of hours I missed the email. It was on auto renew so when it hit the credit card, I called Capital One and I said I did not authorize an auto renew. . at the time there was a bunch of construction near Sam’s Club so it was difficult to get there to. They wanted you to cancel in person. They wouldn’t let you do it over the phone so I called Capital One and I didn’t think that was right I disputed it well I missed the notification on Capital One they do not send you an email. They put it on their website under your account but you have to look for it. They don’t alert you that there’s an email saying that you have a response to the dispute. . I guess on the Fourth of July the $50 was put back on my account. I didn’t notice it because they hide it they just you know if you use the card a lot you don’t notice it so I just happened to look at the notifications when I was looking for my statement and I noticed it said all the merchant said it was valid so they put it back on. I called them up and I said, first of all, I change my charge card number I did not authorize any auto renew And it was Capital One‘s fault because the charge should’ve been denied and then if I wanted to continue with SamsClub. I would have to contact them to give them the new card number, but they are claiming that it’s MasterCard’s rules if somethings on auto renew, even if you change your charge card number They will put it to the new charge card automatically so I was furious. I had to go to Sam’s Club in person and cancel it and I’m going to when I have the time right Capital One a letter saying how dare you put me through all this the charge should’ve been denied so watch out on that and I asked the woman at Sam’s Club can you show me the paper where I agreed to an auto renewal she said she didn’t have it. It must’ve been on something I signed when I got the card we got only knows where that paperwork is right now. I don’t believe that I think it’s a scam, so just watch out on charge cards on the auto renew because I did not authorize that Capital One did not help me. They should’ve thought that for me like I thought they would have. I’m very disappointing usually I love Capital One , but not this time. How dare they let that charge go through after I change the charge card number it still went through and they are blaming it on MasterCard policies. . Thank goodness I still had the Sam’s Club card. I thought I got rid of it because I thought it was over good thing I found it but it was just a real hassle so watch out on auto renewals on charge cards make sure when you sign up for something it’s not on auto renew from Massachusetts by the way
