I’m here because I’m in trouble and I make too much money to be in this kind of trouble.
Starting this journey and day one I was able to save $1700. Budgeting is not my strongest suit but, I am working to change that.
That’s what’s up! You’re doing great work
40 now, and everything is paid for. Fortunately, I had a college economics teacher who taught me a lesson when I was 18 years old. That lesson was: you can't buy something else for every purchase you make. Having multiple sources of income is prudent, as is living within your means. I have a 13-year-old vehicle because it is all I need, I like it, and I can do whatever I want with it. My net worth is $4 million, and I can pay my bills without stress, but I don't live like I have that. I have no complaints.

Vey accurate from your POV, It really isn’t about how much you save, it’s about how you manage your money. Whether you work to earn income or invest, it still boils down to income vs expenses, so yeah you may look into investment advisors for a strategy that suits your goals
wow ,that’s stirring! Do you mind connecting me to your advisor please. I desperately need one to diversified my portfolio.
Catherine Morrison Evans’ is my portfolio-coach, I found her on Bloomberg where she was featured, I looked up her name on the internet. Fortunately I came across her site and reached out to her, you can verify her yourself.
Thanks for sharing, I just looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.
I can’t believe a budget tutorial would make me so emotional. I finally feel like I have some hope and I can one day be financially free. I love what you are doing and am sending you the best wishes and good karma to u ❤
Wishing you the best along your financial journey. Once you make a good budget you can be consistent with, things become easier!
Great video. So easy to follow! About to begin my debt payoff as a single mom!
This video is literally GOD SENT . A 3 day eviction notice brought me here. Although I did not get evicted I said this can never happen again. Unlike you I don’t feel sunshine and rainbows crunching numbers. But it is necessary to not live paycheck to paycheck and having a healthy relationship with money. Thank you so much for making this so simple and relatable . I see you take on the Dave Ramsey approach to finances which has kept me on track in past and I returning to it from this year forward. Thanks again !
Oh, wow. Thank you for sharing your story. I'm glad the eviction didn't happen and that this video is helping in some way. Wishing you much success for this year!
Everything will be okay!! Just breathe and sit down and take it one step at a time!!!
Bless you
It’s a year later, hoping you are still on track! 🙂

THANK YOU! I subscribed just because you mentioned that website! That is a God send!! I have been killing myself trying to find templates of planners and budgeting templates (for free), and that site has everything! Thank you!
Great explanation of some really useful tools. Thank you!
Girl, thank you!!! I’ve been praying for financially independence. I woke up this morning and stumbled across this video. I love that it’s so easy to follow! Your heaven sent 😊
Very helpful!! Thanks for the step by step instructions.
Thank you for getting us hip to Vertex 42. I enjoyed this video!
Thank you soo much! This was randomly suggested to me by RUclips at a time I’m looking into paying off my debts. The debt calculator is truly God sent 🙏🏾
Excited already, thank you!!
This was so helpful! I’m so glad I found your channel.
@syd you are on another level!
Thank you for your explanation of this process. 😊
Thank you so much for posting this. It is super helpful.
Your explanation of the whole process was very easy to understand.
I could not love this any more. You took a very important topic and simplified it to where anyone can apply the simple steps and see success. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the info, I love following along with debt pay offs but that site with the free templates is a god send too.
This video has been SOO helpful! I've never created a budget before (I fall into the category of someone who makes enough and never saw the need to budget since I was never lacking) but this has really been so helpful. Thank you!
Super informative and much better than my diy excel. Thanks🎉
I feel so crazy that I didn’t run into your page sooner! Im older than you for sure and your out here saving lives and finances! Im not a budgeter and nor a math wiz so i have found it very difficult to utilize budgets where i have to do the math but this makes sense im gonna try !
Girl thank you!!! I’m so glad the RUclips Algorithms brought me here!!! Like I’ve been wanting to budget but it just comes & goes! This is such a great guide!!! Thank you!!! And congrats on getting out of that debt!!! If you can do it, anyone can!! 🥳
Well presented and extremely beneficial for any of us needing to get a reign on their finances. Most financial debt stems from actual financial awareness. These forms can bring that to light and make us all financially stable. It’s a great tool and you’re a great teacher. I’ve never said this before to any RUclipsr so I deeply mean this. I will refer your channel to my credit union members. You are treasure.
Thank you so much ! This was a life savor 🥺 I recently caught myself in some debt
Wow, you speak my language! Best video on keeping a budget I’ve seen. I can’t wait to dig into vertex 42. I make my own spreadsheets and am excited to see what kind of spreadsheets I can find.
This was great, thank you so much for the help 🙏🏾

Syd great tutorial thanks
Thank you so much for a detailed an informative review!! I am looking to budget better for the new year, and your video popped up in my algorithm :) super excited to start using this!
I’ve been on budget RUclips for some time now and this is by far the best explanation of zero based budgeting! Thank you sooo much!
Glad it was helpful!
It's so good right. There are so many explanations but as a visual person this was particularly helpful to see.
This was awesome, thank you
I clicked instantly because she resembles Lisa Bonét. ❤ Great info.
Thank you for this simpler approach to budgeting. I have been watching several, this is closer to what I would need to do.
This video doesn't have enough views! Excellent advice!
So glad you enjoyed it!
Yep…I am new subscriber…
Great video 💯
I love budgeting and spreadsheets. I was great at budgeting but I depression spend, unfortunately. I’ve had two not great moments over the last two years and my debt and savings took a big hit. I’m excited to get back on track.
Life happens! Wishing you success on the journey this year.
@@SydRichi thank you so much ❤️
Girl same. But we are getting back on track. And that’s all that matters
@@richardrodriguez5359 One day, one week, one month at a time ❤️
Amazing video
Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for the information
V42 sheets are great!
This was super helpful!!
Budgeting becomes much more challenging when you are in sales/commissioned and your income fluctuates all the time.
The vertex debt sheet has additional tabs that actually show the debt snowball method and progress payments for you. You don't have to update the sheet just highlight the payments you made and it will give you a tentative payoff date
That's true. I didn't like using those other tabs and found updating the main page to be my favorite approach.
Wow such a great video, I literally walked through it with you and got everything set up. I feel empowered now to tackle my debt and spending and not afraid !! Thank you !
You got this! Glad I could help!
Great video. Good luck
This was beautiful- from the communication, the examples, and the execution. Thank You for this
That’s so kind-thank you!
Thanks for increasing my knowledge in personal finance and investment, I recently subscribed to your channel. I want to give a big shout-out to all those working tirelessly to earn a living and build wealth during this recession. My husband and I are both retired and debt-free, and we're living smart and frugal with our money. Despite the recession, we're still earning passive income thanks to our savings and investments in the financial market. Investing lifestyle has enabled us to earn a steady monthly income through passive means, and we're grateful for it;
Congratulations on your early retirement, Interesting indeed! Currently, I am in dire need of investment advice or tips. Last year, I hesitated and failed to take any action until the year concluded. However, this year, I am determined to try something new, as I am very receptive to various investment ideas.
@@whitneyhouston6888 No problem at all! If you're seeking to earn substantial profits from your investment, I would suggest determining your investment horizon and implementing a long-term plan. I worked with Claire Martha Magalhaes to create a long-term investment strategy, and she assisted me in managing my investments while I focused on my job without any concerns.
@@martyedgar4677 Thank you for your advice. It's challenging to find a reliable investment advisor, and I appreciate your input. Seeing the successes you've achieved through investing, I would love to have access to your investment advisor's information if you wouldn't mind sharing it.
@@whitneyhouston6888 I work with *CLAIRE MARTHA MAGALHAES* ,who is based in the United States. If you would like more information about her, you can conduct a search online.
Working with a skilled financial planner can be compared to having a mentor in the field of finance. I used to struggle to invest on my own and ended up losing money, but things changed once I started working with Claire Martha Magalhaes. She played a pivotal role in helping me improve my financial situation. Previously, I relied solely on my job and salary for income, but now I have found ways to generate additional income with ease, which has allowed me to leave traditional employment. Nowadays, I believe that investing is not a choice, but a necessity for anyone who desires financial independence and a good quality of life.
I'm new to budgeting and can't wait to use this spreadsheet! Thank you for this video!
@min. 8:51. pay off debts, God always direct those that tithe to do the right thing for themselves when you consider Him in your money translations.
Was pretty impressed with hearing that..... Honestly once you start, you won't miss the money
I can’t thank you enough for this step by step video. I plan on implementing these strategies when I get my next paycheck. I like the zero based budget as well.
Great video, very informative 🤩
Thank you!
That’s awesome!!
So helpful! Thanks :)
Great video.
Awesome video Syd! Tfs
Thank you!
Great video, thank you
You’re welcome!
DID IT! THANK YOU!
Just here because I loveeee your voice!
And because my life is a mess ❤
This video is AMAZING!! Thank you for taking time out of you LIFE to share this most valuable information. I've been wanting and NEEDING to create a budget, especially while going through my divorce. With this one income source, It's so important to get out of debt and stop being in the RED every month, constantly trying to figure out where XYZ is gonna come from to take care of ABC!!! I'm in the process of applying for addition employment, so including this income will ease a lot of my anxiety, not to mention, I'll be able to CLEARLY see what I have each month! Thanks again and many blessings to you...💝💝💝💝🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
