I quit tracking my expenses three years ago because I thought I didn’t need it anymore, that I had it under control. But girl was I wrong. I recently started again and I eat my money. Like, the amount I spend on food is ridiculous. Time to shape up! Thanks for this! 🙏🏻
Same, I was using it too much when I ended tracking expenses using Toshl. I tracked from 2016 to 2018 I think. 2019 and 2020 I spent like crazy on good, going 20 times a month to the Prisma store (foods). Now I started with their Pro app and I am going to Prisma store at the max 6 times a month. I try to go shop once a week and my food budget is 120 a month.
Personal finances is an art. Requires discipline and patience. Practice makes perfect. The moment you realize you can save money and reproduce it, it motivates you to do it again and again. Don’t overthink it!! Just do it
This is the wisest thing I have read so far and it's a big YES! Coming from an unorganized personal finances and shifting to finally have it organized will make it hard from the beginning, but once you have already turned it into a habit, there's no way you want to do it again but the organized one.
Great video. We all strive for financial independence and better life. It’s not difficult in achieving this through the right investment, living frugally, and budgeting. I’m glad I learned early in life to work hard for financial freedom
In my opinion, venturing into a good investment is not just a strategy for generating passive income but a profitable saving method for future expenses. Those who fail to make the right decisions early in life end up regretting it. Nevertheless, investing can be difficult and risky doing it solely, For this reason, I advise seeking help from professionals(financial advisors). It’s not just watching videos and reading investment books the challenge is using them well.
sincerely, I’m truly inspired by your words. I’m very interested in investing and I have got a good sum of money which I’m ready to put in with the right information. My biggest fear is losing my money on the wrong investment. For this reason, I’m willing to listen to your suggestions and ideas on how to invest wisely.
As an OAP with a lot of experience, I firmly believe that the success of any investment depends on having the right information, regardless of what others say, do whatever you set your mind to. Warren Buffer always says "be greedy when others are fearful and be fearful when others are greedy". This is certainly the trick to succeeding even when others fail.

Being an accounting major has taught me a lot about money. I started my personal finance journey back in college and that's how I was able to save up for my emergency fund until I started working and I was able to build my stock portfolio. Years later and I now have a few real properties and even insurances. WIth personal finance you can definitely save up no matter how small you have at first.
If we are taught that $4000 invested monthly into the S&P 500 index (8% annual ROI) will grow to $2,350,000 after 20 years, $3,800,000 over 25 years and $5,600,000 after 30 years then we will have a lot less 20 year old making $35k and running to the Mercedes dealership to blow the money
Wow, well we never have this well-detailed breakdown of how to build financial growth through stocks I grew up in an average home with both parents as workers
My parents too were government employees and rely on pensions, no planned savings or 401k but the change starts with me, how can one start investing without prior knowledge of stocks sir
Stocks is a great investment and way to create multiple income sources from the proceeds, I have been in the market years now and I have made my fair share of wealth over and over
Investing is all about knowing bearish periods ultimately establish a new crop of stocks to buy and watch while setting the stage for a robust new uptrend.I have been reading articles of people that grossed profits up to $250k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?
You’re right! The current market might give opportunities to maximize profi.t, but in order to execute such effective transactions, you must be a skilled practitioner
On the contrary, even if you’re not skilled, it is still possible to hire one. I am a project manager and my personal port-folio of approximately $750k took a big hit in April due to the crash. I quickly got in touch with a financial-planner that devised a defensive strategy to protect and profit from my port-folio this red season. I’ve made over $150k since then
Thank you so much for your helpful tip! I was able to verify the person and book a call session with her. She seems very proficient and I'm really grateful for your pointers
You are amazing. I currently still live with my parents and they do all of the financing. But me and my boyfriend bought a house together and are moving in soon. So these are really good tips and tricks.
Congrats on such a big step. If you are wondering about how to manage a combined finance and budget maybe this video can also help ruclips.net/video/rd8WkxvMAqg/видео.html xCC
Love the idea of paying everything on the same day every month. I try paying/scheduling ahead, but rather often find myself double checking bank to see what was withdrawn already and all that. Thanks this was a nice video 😊
This video really epic if you are in the beginning it gives you general overview but if you are in this sector for along it motivates you and refreshes your information.thanks 🌷
I like the idea of paying the bills close in due dates at the same time when paying before the due date to avoid forgetting. She said to pay on the 1st bill’s due date 👌🏾 Makes perfect sense. Thank you …
@@sherryjackson8474 No. For instance, if you have a bill coming out on the 21st, the 23rd and the 26th then you would pay all three on the 21st that way everything is paid on time by the due date of the first bill.
If you won't use a sheet, use an app. There's plenty of apps out there for free. Some people get overwhelmed with a spreadsheet. You can categorise your spending and income and then export these figures as a spreadsheet.
Could you explain/make a video on how you make each category add automatically as you label them (13.55). This would be so helpful. Many thanks - Colleen
Enjoyed your video. I love saving and watching those savings stack up! And I agree, personal finance is a HUGE topic with lots of different ways to spend less and save more!
I feel pretty lucky to already have a half decent emergency fund and no ‘bad’ debt so have really been focusing on savings and investment at this time and hope to build a greater than 20% savings rate! Great information!
This is the standard Financial Order of Operations priority list for budgeting: Necessities Starter Emergency Fund (1 month of necessities) High Interest Debt Full Emergency Fund (3-6 months of expenses) Retirement Accounts (20% of gross income) Optional Spending
For something that small, it might be best to always get the receipt and keep it in a special place, whether that be your wallet, an envelope, etc. At the end of the week/month, you can dump them out and see if your general spending is roughly the same or if there's fluctuations somewhere. You could also set aside a cash allowance specifically for "treats", and when it's gone, it's gone.
This is very informative and a motivating video! I hope people can learn and practice what you’ve been sharing as this is one of the best practices I have ever heard so far. Keep making great content like this 💕
My bank account can't say much positive things about me but I'm a delivery driver and I've been saving up my tips and I can typically save around $400-$500 a month. It still means 12 hour shifts on the weekends, or at least once or twice in the week and yeah I feel tired a lot but at least I'm not so completely broke. At least to where I'm not throwing my money away. The best part is that I'm also organizing and saving my money into multiple pockets. So there's like 10-20 different things I'm (trying to) save up for. From an espresso machine (so I'm not spending $6 and $7 at Starbucks all the time) a piano keyboard, to car insurance and trying to pay off my car. I'm even saving up for mother's day so I can do something nice for my mom. And several other things like saving for my own place and clothes shopping, etc.. tip jobs are good to have when you want cash to put away each day. 😊
Hi Mariana, as a non-american, do you find those podcasts useful? i find many times the things that american podcasts touch on dont really translate for my life, as I dont have the type of debt or system, or even credit card systems or banking systems, so it is interesting, but not really something that I will use for my life. loved this video and all the resources, thank you! :)
I find them useful for general advice. Unfortunately anything concerning credit score/credit cards isn’t really useful in my country but I try to search for advice that is applicable as much as possible
@@haleyhewkin566 I dont think so.. usually in europe people dont use credit cards as often and I never heard of scores outside of an american context. I lived in 4 countries in europe and 1 in asia. Credit cards are usually not used unless its absolutely necessary. usually you can pay for things online with a debit card.
@@sadhbheire that’s interesting. even here u have the option to not use a credit card so i wonder why americans are so attached to using them and having credit debt is such a common thing here. how do they not have credit scores tho? in america u can’t buy certain things without credit. i was denied a phone before bc of it lmao so in other countries they just believe u when u say ur gonna pay ur rent/car payments on time?
I downloaded the template you provided. The budgeting one is working great but for the expense one...how can I have the categories populate automatically like it did in your video?
I just like writing down what I spend and then calculate what I have left for the month. I always make a spread a month with my (static) expenses and static income, which will determine my budget. I also include some "may be" future expenses. We have a caresystem where everyone has to have a care insurance, and there will always be a certain amount you will have to pay when you need care of a hospital, drug, special care, I just defide the max amount I might have to pay by 12, so I have it at least laying around for when the bill actually comes
If you want to be successful , you take most responsibility for your emotions , do not place the blame on others . In addition to making you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only make you loose the your motivation force to become something and your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must believe in the outcome of your goal if you wanna be successful in life.
Let's not forget that the biggest payouts in the market doesn't come from great performance but rather it's great promotions. Stay invested , work on your mind, body and finance and you will be amazed how far you will go in the game of life
I urge everyone to start somewhere now no matter how small, this is literally the time for that, forget material things, don't get tempted, I became more to get more. I believe the things of the world are good, and if you stay committed to the process you will enjoy the benefits of your risk and hard work in due time...
@@JuanAntonio-bx9qb You're right forex trading is surely a lucrative way to invest whether you want growth, leverage, stable income or something in between.
Hi dear friend, my name is Estefany, I’m teaching a course related to household management and I would like to use this amazing video to show to my students, I love it and I think it can be very useful, could I have your permission? I will really appreciate it. Have a good day and take care. Warm regards, Estefany.
These are very valuable rules for anybody who wants to get rich. Unfortunately, most people who will watch this video will not really be able to apply the principles. We may not want to admit, but as Warren Buffett once said, investing is like any other profession-- it requires a certain level of expertise. No surprise that some people are losing a lot of money in the bear market, while others are making hundreds of thousands in profit. I just don't know how they do it. I have about $89k now to put in the market.
Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money. I know someone who made over $350k in this recession influenced market, but to the best of my knowledge, it was through a financial advisor.
Yeah, financial advisors could make a lot of difference, particularly in a market such as this. Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look. I have been using an FA since 2019, and I return at least $21k ROI, and this does not include capital gain.
Carol Vivian Constable is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
Hello i found this very helpful, thank you for sharing! I was just wondering how you manage to create your category list automatically as you do on 04:41 thanks in advance!
At 4.48 you add in your categories which automatically get added to a separate table with the amount, how have you done this? I have downloaded your sheet but it’s not happened automatically like yours. Much appreciated. Amy
I save most of my money in my saving account and I won't touch them unless I have to. I don't have debt and I just pay my bills accordingly. With money left, I'll spend it on online shopping and food.
This is only a suggestion, but I think saving is not really a great option for this era of time. I "save" my money in deposito, the rate is pretty low, but pretty stable since the value of my money is never not really going down. Inflation is pretty scary, I dont really know how it is in your country but your money's value will keep going down. "Saving" with gold or deposito or low risk stock maybe a better way to save nowadays.

Few personal finance tips: ✅ Be aware of what you have (money, debt, spendings). ✅ Pay yourself first. ✅ Focus on making more money, spending less money and growing it. ✅ If you can't pay in cash, you can't efford it. ✅ Have more than one income source.

So common we’ve had to guard against that too!

THANK YOU! SUPER USEFUL.
thank you for the spreadsheet!
Thanks for the video ☺☺☺
Do you track every single expense? Even if you buy, let's say, candy or anything small?
Those are the most important to track, because they add up quickly without you even knowing
Most people have a personal allowance. A small amount - generally cash- that you don't have to track
For something that small, it might be best to always get the receipt and keep it in a special place, whether that be your wallet, an envelope, etc. At the end of the week/month, you can dump them out and see if your general spending is roughly the same or if there's fluctuations somewhere.
You could also set aside a cash allowance specifically for "treats", and when it's gone, it's gone.

@@sadhbheire that’s interesting. even here u have the option to not use a credit card so i wonder why americans are so attached to using them and having credit debt is such a common thing here. how do they not have credit scores tho? in america u can’t buy certain things without credit. i was denied a phone before bc of it lmao so in other countries they just believe u when u say ur
gonna pay ur rent/car payments on time?
Hi Mariana I really wonder how to make the category shows up automatically? 04:40 when you type in cell G
I downloaded the template you provided. The budgeting one is working great but for the expense one...how can I have the categories populate automatically like it did in your video?
Thanks. The video was very well made. Simple to understand and remember.
so helpful thank you!
Wow nice! Thank you for sharing your spreadsheets!
Thanks for your content, your sharing and colabrative approch and your refrencing. 💎
Nice work! Just subscribed and look forward to seeing more videos.
These personal finance tips are amazing! those podcasts you mentioned are also really great
Today is the best day to get started, investing is one of the best methods around
thank you so much love!! These tips are really helpful
Mariana, did you link to your sheet? I think the link is missing
It's not hers, the spreadsheet is available online, search for "excel p personal expenses tracker template". And she's using Notion.so too
Thanks for the video. Having good habits does matter!
Thanks for sharing.😊
I just like writing down what I spend and then calculate what I have left for the month. I always make a spread a month with my (static) expenses and static income, which will determine my budget. I also include some "may be" future expenses. We have a caresystem where everyone has to have a care insurance, and there will always be a certain amount you will have to pay when you need care of a hospital, drug, special care, I just defide the max amount I might have to pay by 12, so I have it at least laying around for when the bill actually comes
If you want to be successful , you take most responsibility for your emotions , do not place the blame on others . In addition to making you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only make you loose the your motivation force to become something and your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must believe in the outcome of your goal if you wanna be successful in life.
Let's not forget that the biggest payouts in the market doesn't come from great performance but rather it's great promotions. Stay invested , work on your mind, body and finance and you will be amazed how far you will go in the game of life
I urge everyone to start somewhere now no matter how small, this is literally the time for that, forget material things, don't get tempted, I became more to get more. I believe the things of the world are good, and if you stay committed to the process you will enjoy the benefits of your risk and hard work in due time...
Well there are some profitable investments one can do conveniently at this moment which are
Forex trading is really profitable, investing in it now will be the wisest thing to do especially with the current rise in BC and other stocks.
@@JuanAntonio-bx9qb You're right forex trading is surely a lucrative way to invest whether you want growth, leverage, stable income or something in between.
Me: wondering about personal finance habits I should use in 2021
Mariana 5 minutes later: publishes this video.
LOL
❤️❤️ listen money matters, learned so much from that podcast
How did you get the "category" section to automatically fill in the second table?
use pivot table function in google sheets.
Hi dear friend, my name is Estefany, I’m teaching a course related to household management and I would like to use this amazing video to show to my students, I love it and I think it can be very useful, could I have your permission? I will really appreciate it. Have a good day and take care. Warm regards, Estefany.
Mariana I'm so shookt to see you at 600k!
that is literly what i said
Genius!!! Thanks so muuuuucccccch. Live saver
🫡
This vid is exactly what I needed! Thanks for helping us with so many important aspects of our lives.
I made a copy of your GS template. How do I add to the categories the way you show on the video at around 4:40?
Thanks a lot
Great Video!
doggo @ 9:37 made me think it was nearby lol

These are very valuable rules for anybody who wants to get rich. Unfortunately, most people who will watch this video will not really be able to apply the principles. We may not want to admit, but as Warren Buffett once said, investing is like any other profession-- it requires a certain level of expertise. No surprise that some people are losing a lot of money in the bear market, while others are making hundreds of thousands in profit. I just don't know how they do it. I have about $89k now to put in the market.
Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money. I know someone who made over $350k in this recession influenced market, but to the best of my knowledge, it was through a financial advisor.
Yeah, financial advisors could make a lot of difference, particularly in a market such as this. Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look. I have been using an FA since 2019, and I return at least $21k ROI, and this does not include capital gain.
That's fascinating. How can I contact your Asset-coach as my portfolio is dwindling?
Carol Vivian Constable is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran an online search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
Thanks for it
Love the video! How do you create a formula like the one on 4:40 which sums all the items on the same category?
Nice video!
I enjoyed every minute of this video. Excellent work! Although as you mentioned it is not easy to put everything Personal Finances in just one video.
Hello i found this very helpful, thank you for sharing! I was just wondering how you manage to create your category list automatically as you do on 04:41 thanks in advance!
It's a pivot table
There is a template from Google sheets which is just like that one.
Hi do you have video on how to setup excel for finance/ budgeting?
Such a great video! These principles are so important!
Hello Mariana, the 2nd sheet in the link doesn't have formulas? How to do it?
At 4.48 you add in your categories which automatically get added to a separate table with the amount, how have you done this? I have downloaded your sheet but it’s not happened automatically like yours. Much appreciated. Amy
i don't know if it's just me, but Mariana, your American accent is getting better! :)
I save most of my money in my saving account and I won't touch them unless I have to. I don't have debt and I just pay my bills accordingly. With money left, I'll spend it on online shopping and food.
This is only a suggestion, but I think saving is not really a great option for this era of time. I "save" my money in deposito, the rate is pretty low, but pretty stable since the value of my money is never not really going down. Inflation is pretty scary, I dont really know how it is in your country but your money's value will keep going down. "Saving" with gold or deposito or low risk stock maybe a better way to save nowadays.
How does it work at 3:39 that the categories at the right just add up as soon as she types?
She put an Excel formula in the spreadsheet. Gates is a multi-billionaire for a reason
@@dreamchaser5758 It doesn't work with my copy. Does it work with yours?
@@minkichoilee oh no. I don't have it

Really enjoyed this video. Thanks for this. Side note: I can’t watch you write, the way you hold a pen looks so painful. I just tried it and almost got a cramp :) What ever works for you tho, not saying there’s a right way to hold a pen.
